Pulmonology

 

With access to board certified pumonologists and general practitioners, our network of sites has the expertise and access to patients for your next repiratory study.

Our investigators are particularly eager to collaborate with industry on clinical trials for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which remain unmet needs for their patients.

Sites in the Elite Research Network have conducted hundreds of respiratory studies from Phase I through Phase IV. Our respiratory sites are equipped with Pulmonary Function Testing (Spirometry), Peak Flow Monitoring and Survey System Plus. Each of our sites utilizes a central IRB to accelerate study start up. Through a combination of our patient databases and selective advertising, our sites typically meet or exceed enrollment goals in the respiratory studies we conduct, while providing high quality data to our clients.

Due to our therapeutic expertise in respiratory diseases, we work with our clients in the feasibility and planning stages of their studies. We offer focus groups consisting of investigators, study coordinators, and when appropriate, study participants, in order to establish enrollment expectations and address potential challenges in an effort to minimize cost to the client.
