Our Services

START UP

Based on our professional approach, BioResearch Group offers a set of services that meets the Sponsors’ needs starting from consultations at the earliest stage of the study (concept, design and study assumptions) up to final integrated clinical study report.

  • BioResearch Group is a clinical site that offers the Sponsors:advisory services in the area of the possibility of conducting clinical trials in Poland,
  • consultations with scientists, specialists and experts in the field of choosing appropriate strategies,
  • support in the process of designing study conduct, writing study protocols and Investigator’s Brochure,
  • preparing Informed Consent Forms (ICF) for Subjects adjust it to the specific protocols,
  • assisting (or performing) in the process of the submission of documentation to regulatory authorities,
  • communication with the authorities on a professional level (including representing the study while taking part in Ethical Committee meetings),
  • permanent contact with the Sponsor/CRO including periodical study status and recruitment reports (communication in Polish and English).

Before the beginning of each study, we conduct general and study-specific training for the study Team (i.e. investigators, nurses, laboratory technicians, coordinators and pharmacists). In order to popularize the knowledge and standards requirements typical for early phases. we regularly organize external trainings and workshops.

We prepare study-specific medical, laboratory and pharmaceutical records (forms, logs, patients’ cards, instructions, manuals etc.).

We propose to conduct studies according to our procedures and study specific manuals (pharmaceutical, laboratory, medical) which are always based on specific protocol requirements.

To assure the proper conduct of the study and enrich our offer, we propose services which are outsourced in our subcontractors. We cooperate with local laboratories and diagnostic centers equipped with CT, MRI and other diagnostic equipment. Due to conducting studies in different locations, especially in hospitals, we have an easy access to specialized equipment and sophisticated treatment methods.

RECRUITMENT

BioResearch Group leads an active recruitment amongst healthy people and patients so we have access to the wide population of Subjects.

Due to the own dedicated for recruitment website www.udzialwbadaniu.pl, we can influence on awareness about clinical trials amongst potential Subjects. Information about planned and ongoing studies as well as news and events concerning the site activities can be found on the website.

Our database of healthy volunteers and patients is improving, every day we have up to about 40 - 50 new Subjects. Additionally we conduct advertising campaigns in local newspapers, social media and amongst Subject who have already cooperated with the site. Taking into account demanding of early phases clinical trials, bioequivalence, bioavailability studies and medical experiments, we implemented recruitment strategies addressed for healthy volunteers. As a result our database is a source of Subjects who are interested in participating in the trials and who want to contribute to the development of new drugs or medical devices.

We have also access to special populations of healthy volunteers: smoking, non-smoking, with habits, elderly males and females, post-menopausal females, overweight/obesed and many others.

The Subjects database is registered by national respective authority and is secured by dedicated server by highest standards of data protection and also has dedicated interface to process subjects’ data (medical, demographic, participation in clinical trials)

We use network of collaborating physicians, specialists and multidisciplinary clinics as well as two outpatients clinics: BRG Medical Center and CRG Clinical Center to have access to an even wider population of patients in various diseases indications, such as:
