Opinion leaders. Key therapy areas. Cutting edge science.

SPCR is proud to have an internationally recognised team of senior clinicians and scientists. With Key Opinion Leaders in pain and anaesthesia, psychiatry and cognitive disorders as well as clinical trials & drug development, we can provide unrivalled scientific support for your studies.

The exacting nature of clinical research in pain and cognition requires precise and reproducible delivery of the study protocol.

We therefore pride ourselves on our emphasis on staff training and precision in these areas of core business.

Engaging patients.

Optimising outcomes.

Our approach to patient care ensures that from the moment a patient is identified, they remain supported, informed and engaged in the clinical trial process.

In addition, our in-house patient engagement team has experience in harnessing the power of social media and digital platforms, building these approaches into our recruitment strategies.

To ensure successful recruitment for each trial, tailored recruitment strategies that navigate the complex patient populations appropriately are created combining pre-existing patient databases, ongoing digital and community outreach work, and new innovative methods of recruitment. Each patient also undergoes an extensive pre-screening process to ensure suitability which allows SPCR to maintain a high screening to randomisation ratio across the therapeutic areas.
