Abstract:

A large number of pharmaceutical companies now use contract resource organisations (CROs) for the reporting of their clinical trials, use in data monitoring committees (DMCs) or for consultancy work. High expectations are placed on the CRO to create the best possible results, in the fastest possible time for the least possible cost. This paper intends to explore the expectations from both interested parties, resulting in some possible solutions/suggestions to make the working relationship easier, more efficient and with less stress on either side.
