SAN ANTONIO,Oct. 14,2022 -- Based on its recent analysis of the global decentralized clinical trials (DCT) industry,Frost & Sullivanhas recognized leading global clinical research organization (CRO) Parexel with the 2022 Global Customer Value Leadership Award. Parexel combines in-house expertise,patient and caregiver insights,and cutting-edge technologies to plan,operationalize,and deliver DCTs for biopharmaceutical customers worldwidewhile ensuring the highest levels of patient safety. The company offers Phase I-IV clinical trial capabilities,integrated consulting expertise,and broad therapeutic expertise to accelerate new therapies for patients.

Parexel has earned a reputation of supporting its customers' path toward minimizing patient burden while accumulating real-time,accurate clinical trial data.

This Patients-first approach covers three crucial phases of clinical trial planning and design:

Before every DCT study—Identify and address potential barriers that hinder participation and inclusion,including medical/scientific,logistical,and cultural/behavioral differences

During a DCT study—Assist patients with eConsent,home nursing,direct-to-patient drug shipments,and video-monitored dosing to simplify the process

Post-study—Promptly support customers with getting crucial therapies into the market and facilitating early access to medicines
