Pacific Clinical Research Group^TM (PCRG) has 18 years of consistent success, with 94% of our clients achieving their primary objective – whether it be clinical, regulatory or strategic/financial.

• Genuine Medical Leadership. Some of the smaller Australia/New Zealand CRO “Medical Directors” do not even have Medical Degrees(!). Even the larger CROs typically have only part-time or non-Specialist Physicians. In contrast, the PCRG Chairman works full-time for the Company, and is an Australian-trained, Harvard-recruited Cardiologist with 25 years’ global clinical trial experience.

• Local Knowledge and Expertise- Staff Based in Australia/New Zealand. As opposed to the current trend to have more costly staff such as Project Managers located in low paying third-world regions, all PCRG staff have many years, if not decades, of working only in Australia and/or New Zealand. This provides us with:
  • A strong knowledge of Local Regulations and requirements;
  • Unique understanding of local clinical trial culture, and nuances at particular clinical sites;
  • Longstanding, close relationships with KOLs, sites, Ethics Committees, the TGA and MedSafe.

• Employee Continuity. All PCRG staff are employees, not sub-contractors. Additionally, staff retention rates are significantly higher than most CROs – currently, our clinical staff have a median of 5.8 years’ employment at PCRG.

• Quality Systems. One of the first Australian CROs to have ISO 9001 Certification, PCRG have also undergone >100 routine external audits. In our 18 years, we have never had a major deficiency cited.

• True International Perspective. With >95% of our clients being based outside Australia, PCRG have a unique understanding of international clinical trial culture, regulations and Sponsor requirements.
