What is the role of Clinical Research Organizations (CRO) in clinical research?
Clinical Research Organizations conduct human trials on behalf of big pharmaceutical companies (sponsors) who intend to manufacture and market new drugs. CRO professionals have expertise in carrying out studies in a timely and cost-effective manner providing reliable data required by the regulatory bodies. They are responsible for planning and executing the study as per International guidelines (ICH-GCP). A typical CROs set-up comprises Clinical operations, Clinical project management, data management, Medical affairs and an independent Quality control department.
