Standards our partners can verify

ICH E6 (R2) — Good Clinical Practice

The international guideline covering how clinical trials should be designed, conducted, recorded, and reported. Our team’s training and our documentation practices are aligned with this standard throughout every study.

Ethics Committee Oversight

All clinical research activities are conducted under the oversight of relevant institutional and regional ethics committees, ensuring participant welfare and informed consent are protected at every stage.

Data Integrity & Audit Trails

Our data collection processes are structured and auditable, with clear documentation from point of collection through to sponsor delivery, supporting the data integrity standards pharmaceutical partners require.

GCP Training

Investigators and site staff working on TDRTI studies complete Good Clinical Practice training aligned with ICH E6 (R2), with certification maintained and available for partner review.
