Hanover, MD, July 19, 2021 – Today, the Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS) announced a Global Impact Partnership with Medical Research Network (MRN), a market-leading decentralized trial support organization. As a Global Impact Partner (GIP), MRN will align with other sponsors, CROs, and service providers that share an ongoing commitment to enhance clinical research site sustainability and improve site performance.
“Patient experience will continue to inform protocols forever forward and MRN has prioritized patient experience with in-home visits and decentralized technology,” comments Sean Soth, Vice President of Global Business Partnerships for SCRS. “SCRS is pleased to welcome the MRN team to the Global Impact Partner program and reflect on the future of patient care. By joining SCRS, MRN, like all our SCRS Global Impact Partners, places sites as a cornerstone to patient care and is critical to improving the tech, care, and operations of clinical trials.”
“MRN is thrilled for our new partnership with SCRS as we continue to collaborate with our site partners to advance and expand the types of medicine, drug delivery mechanisms, sample management and data collection possible from a patient’s home,” says Doug Cookson, Vice President Commercial Development at MRN. “Patient care is the core of our business and drives us to continually improve and innovate. As the industry changes, we recognize the importance of real collaboration with all stakeholders to build better, more efficient trials. We come to the table with over 15 years of experience, approximately 60,000 trial visits in patients’ homes covering 118 indications around the world and are looking forward to working together to make decentralized trials work best for patients and sites.”
