The centre has to date carried out over 160 industry-sponsored research studies that enrolled more than 7,000 subjects across 12 states in Brazil and provides remote monitoring, telemedicine and home care assistance for patients.
With the takeover, the IBPClin’s research team can serve Latin American patients with what previously has been US-only decentralised expertise that can bring complex research visits to patients who are interested.
Through the acquisition, difficult-to-reach, underserved and usually underrepresented population in the Latin American region will gain access to clinical trials.
Care Access has developed a clinical trial delivery model for decentralising the clinical research site and brings research to patients who are difficult to reach, by merging mobile research infrastructure, traveling clinical specialists and virtual investigators.
