The Clinical Network of DaVita Clinical Research (DCR) facilitates large-scale nationwide renal trials
Since 2001, DaVita Clinical Research has been developing a clinical network of physicians, medical groups, and dialysis centers across the U.S. Today, with participation from 127 active clinic practices, more than 1,500 dialysis sites representing more than 115,000 patients and a network of over 400 principal investigators, DaVita Clinical Research is unsurpassed in its ability to provide you with successful, trouble-free, late-stage trials. Our database of 115,000 pre-screened patients permits accelerated enrollment, thereby reducing time-to-market and increasing marketing opportunities.
Paperwork is reduced and impact on the physician or clinical site is minimized by use of electronic patient reported outcomes systems and a Web-based clinical trials management system. Online access to electronic health records for monitors can significantly reduce the time and costs associated with conducting clinical trials.
Excellent communication and relationships with our sites provide compressed and accurate start-up, allowing us to make substantial contributions to trials of almost any size. Training and compliance are followed based on the protocol, ensuring trials are successfully completed on time. DCR leverages relationships with central laboratories across the nation to ensure accurate and consistent analysis of your samples.
DCR’s extensive, nationwide Clinical Network, in combination with our comprehensive statistical database comprising 228 billion data points on over 115,000 patients, means DCR is ideally positioned to assist with marketing efforts, including pharmacovigilance, and provide expert product feedback.
