Clinical trial safety

For first-in-human (FIH) studies, we assist clients in determining optimal design elements, such as safe starting doses and dose escalation steps, to help ensure efficient and rapid study execution while prioritising safety. By managing online pharmacokinetics (PK) under the same roof as our Clinical Pharmacology Unit (CPU), we’re able to further streamline trial timelines and safety decision making. Our team is supported by experienced medical professionals, modern safety monitoring systems, and a fully compliant electronic source data acquisition system, helping ensure adherence to regulatory standards.
