Or Less EDC Entry Time

Obesity capabilities and experience across diverse patient populations.

Elite Research Network is a group of investigative sites which specialize in conducting obesity studies in all phases. In order to recruit, screen, randomize and retain a high volume of study participants in a short amount of time while maintaining patient safety, our teams include investigators, study coordinators, patient recruiters, registered dieticians and dedicated EDC and quality assurance personnel.

A number of our investigators are board certified in Obesity Medicine and others are members of the Obesity Medicine Association. Elite sites are held to the highest quality standards, allowing us to offer accelerated start-up, rapid enrollment and consistent quality across all studies. We have capabilities to support most therapeutic areas and phases of clinical trials but obesity (Nutrient-Stimulated Hormones / GLP-1) is a burgeoning specialty. 

Elite Research Network is a proud sponsor of the Obesity Action Coalition:
