Clinical quality assurance audits

Clinical quality assurance audits, performed to ensure that scientific and ethical standards are met in the conduct of clinical trials, are conducted using proprietary computerized audit tools, customized to each project, so that GCP audit findings can be efficiently and consistently collected, analyzed and reported.

This focused systems-oriented approach to quality assurance is designed to assess and validate study conduct and documentation to ensure regulatory compliance and conformance to protocol, SOP and contractual requirements. Our methodology fully evaluates the activities and documentation underlying study data integrity and Good Clinical Practice (GCP) ethical and regulatory requirements.

To maintain independence and objectivity in performing quality assurance evaluations, BioResearch Monitors does not conduct or manage clinical trials, thereby providing our clients with unbiased opinions, free from any conflicts of interest, when sensitive investigations of internal systems or evaluations of other clinical service providers are needed.
