Which CRO's to choose? The initial considerations

Your initial considerations on finding suitable CRO candidates for your clinical trial can be based on a variety of issues. In my experience, a very good place to start is your previous experience combined with good old recommendations from trusted colleagues.

However, do not let that stand alone - you may risk overlooking an even better candidate CRO, and also remember, that this market is in rapid change, and experience gained 2-3 years ago may already be outdated.

Always seek what general information you can find available on suitable CROs within the therapeutic area in case. A careful conducted litterature review on recent clinical trial conducted within the clinical indication of interest may reveal not only CRO-candidates that you would not have been thinking of, but also Key Opinion Leaders and potential investigators - plus it may give you a hint on countries and regions with relevant clinical activities.
