Clinical study management

Study management is critical to the success of every project. Our experienced professionals deliver superior service by taking a collaborative approach to study management. This approach, combined with exceptional organizational and interpersonal skills, creates a responsive, client-driven environment.

We manage each step of the process, from site selection and feasibility assessments to start-up, study planning, risk management and interaction with regulatory authorities and ethics committees.

Clinical monitoring

Our clinical research associates (CRAs) are known for their outstanding client service, attention to detail and in-depth knowledge of industry regulations and guidelines. They verify compliance with protocols, quality standards, data collection and regulatory guidelines—ensuring the highest quality data for your clinical trial. 

We provide site selection, site initiation, interim monitoring and close-out visits, as well as remote monitoring, site personnel training, mentoring and guidance. We also assess protocol compliance and data integrity, as well as a host of other monitoring services.

Data management

We offer a full spectrum of data management services and expertise to optimize your data. Our clinical data managers rigorously follow standard operating procedures that encompass security, industry regulations and ICH/GCP. They work collaboratively and cross-functionally to ensure all stakeholders’ needs are met. We use a comprehensive, but easy-to-use, cloud-based clinical data management platform that supports a wide range of study types and designs. 

From data management planning and CRF and database design to EDC database build and role-based security and access control, we have you covered.

Biostatistics

Biostatistical design and analysis are central elements of any clinical trial. Establishing a sound biostatistical plan results in optimal study design and high-quality data output. Comprehensive statistical input during the early stages of a clinical development program decreases overall costs and accelerates timelines to regulatory approval. 

We manage sample size calculation, protocol development support, statistical analysis plans, interim and final data analysis, support for medical writers and more.

Quality assurance

Our quality assurance team provides compliance oversight and guidance through carefully planned audits and detailed reports. This allows continuous process improvement to ensure the ongoing effectiveness of your clinical trial.

We also offer quality assurance services that are independent audits of clinical investigational sites, processes, documentation and assessment of the quality of the data collected and processed.

  • Developing DSMB charter
  • Identifying and contracting with DSMB members
  • Monitoring conflict of interest and financial disclosure for DSMB members
  • Preparing DSMB meetings (e.g. scheduling, generation and validation of applicable tables, listings and figures)
  • DSMB meeting execution and follow-up (including communication with sponsor, ethics and regulatory bodies, as per the DSMB Charter).

Better patient engagement

Our decentralized clinical trial services are patient-centric and designed to improve the patient’s experience, which leads to better patient engagement and increased retention rates. We make it easy for patients to participate, by bringing trial activities to them wherever they are located: home, work or in-clinic. This allows us to reach a larger, more diverse pool of patients for your clinical trial. 

Real-world evidence

Data about real-world patient experience has the potential to improve the quality and delivery of medical care, reduce overall costs, improve patient outcomes, inform marketing strategies, and potentially reveal new indications. These data help fill the knowledge gap between clinical trials and actual clinical practice. Calian offers custom-designed and insightful qualitative and quantitative real-world data (RWD) collection as part of our patient programs, enabling real-world evidence (RWE) generation.
