Late Phase

Maximizing market penetration, enhancing product positioning, and increasing patient support are ever-increasing challenges for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. In addition, diminishing periods of exclusivity and patent protection, combined with increasing regulatory demands for long-term safety data on pharmaceutical products, have contributed to an exponential increase in the number of peri approval studies.

There is no better tool to ensure study success than the insight gained though years of experience.  PAREXEL have been running late phase studies for 25 years and the PACE group was the first dedicated, global, late phase group in the CRO industry. The PACE group has a team of late phase advisors with many years’ experience of working both within the pharmaceutical and CRO industries; whatever help you need, we’ve invariably “Seen it” and usually “Done it”.

Working with the PACE group could not be easier.  Our project managers offer a single point of contact across all additional PAREXEL services required for a study as well as coordinating any third party vendors.  Our web reporting tools allow clients the freedom to track study progress and review live study metrics as needed and our proactive communication plans ensure that all parties are kept fully informed, motivated and up to date throughout the study.
