The logistical set up required for a clinical study is much more complex than we could imagine. Having already participated in studies, or picked up samples for these studies, does not always enable the anticipation of the difficulties that can ensue for further studies.
The logistical steps that are indispensable for the correct running of a clinical trial cannot be improvised and require a global comprehension of the study components, due to the specific constraints of the project’s therapeutic area, the different actors involved, the location of the centres changing etc.
Due to their intervention in hundreds of studies of all types, set up in France as well as throughout the world, during 20 years in the heart of French CROs and then global companies, the Theradis Pharma team has acquired an uncontestable experience of the logistics that are specific to clinical trials.
Welded by their experience of working together for many years, the team has an excellent knowledge of the regulatory environment and the demands of clinical trials.
This team was constituted in 1992 in the midst of an International Service Company. The Company was renowned for delivering quality service, which constructed it’s excellent reputation and developed an elevated client satisfaction rating.
The profile of studies already managed by Theradis Pharma are extremely varied :
- Studies set up in France within a hospital environment for which the training and supplying of the different participants was involved.
- Studies carried out outside the hospital environment, in different towns in France, involving the synchronization of a multitude of participants, (GPs, Specialists, Local Laboratories, Radiologists, taxi services…), taking in charge the patients, data collection and entering (vital signs, help with dosage..)
- International studies set up in countries with an infrastructure ready to operate, as well as in other countries requiring that the logistics be adapted entirely to the local means.
- Global studies necessitating the set up of local relay-platforms, the establishment of very specific logistics etc.
For these studies, the Theradis Pharma team have carried out all types of logistic support services for clinical trials, such as the management of IMP, management of study material and documents, biological logistics (centralisation of analyses) etc.
