Coordination support includes the start-up, initiation, and ongoing management of the trial.

Medical and Scientific Oversight

Provision of medical expertise for clinical integrity, validity, and safety for the design and duration of the trial.

Data Management

Ongoing entry, privacy, security, and validation of data collected throughout the study, in addition to maintenance of case report forms, and adverse events to trial sponsors.

Participant Screening & Recruitment

Support includes the identification and randomization of eligible study participants, development of study recruitment materials, obtaining participant consent, and the administration of an intervention.

Specimen Collection

Collection of biological materials and transport to a laboratory for third-party analysis (including onsite phlebotomy and venipuncture services).
