INNOVADERM CRO IS NOW INDERO.

Site Selection & Management

Strategic site selection for dermatology & rheumatology clinical trials, based on relevant experience in your indication, positive indicators in efficacy assessments, and proven recruitment track records.

Dermatology & Rheumatology Site Selection

By carefully selecting the right sites for your clinical trial, sponsors can expect reliable data, timely recruitment, and cost-effective study management. Indero’s team of site selection specialists is always working on finding the best sites to increase our extensive dermatology & rheumatology site database. Here’s how we work:

(1) Site List 

  • Evaluate your study protocol with a cross-functional team to fully understand site requirements and core competencies.
  • Develop site selection strategy, including recruitment objectives and projections based on competitive landscape, timelines and sites’ past performance metrics.
  • Create a site list and an initial expression of interest.

(2) Site Outreach

  • Conduct a pre-feasibility assessment.
  • Pre-identify the most suitable sites and anticipate potential challenges.
  • Develop feasibility questionnaire based on pre-feasibility and study protocol.
  • Evaluate expected site performance.

(3) Site Qualification Visit (SQV) 

  • Define type of SQV based on specific study requirements and selection strategy.
  • Evaluate FQ and site qualifications to determine if a CRA should conduct an SQV for that site (onsite or remote).
  • Provide feedback based on SQV. 

(4) Site Selection 

  • Receive CRA recommendations within 24–48 hours of the SQV, with final recommendation for selection (or not) from a site selection specialist.
  • Fast track designation can be applied to sites whom Indero has worked with in the last 12 months, accelerating selection and lowering costs (No SQV required).
  • Site selected with sponsor approval.
