A Medical Devices client approached QPS to conduct a challenging opthamology study. This case study outlines the challenges we faced and solutions we put in place to successfully deliver the study.
Challenge
The Client contacted QPS to deliver a Medical Device study in ophthalmology, limited to just one study site in Austria, in a very short time frame and with the goal of receiving CE mark and access the European Market.
Solution - 3 Factors for Success
Global Investigator Network:
- The very strong QPS Investigator network enabled us to quickly identify one single study site that was capable of recruiting over 100 patients for surgery within a recruitment period of just 6 months.
Communication:
- QPS provided the client with the unlimited communication flexibility, setting up Teleconferences and GoTo Meetings, and always seamlessly covering the necessary time zones.
Flexible Resources:
- QPS allocated special resources to ensure that Data Management, Biostatistics, and Medical Writing would be available and on-call to complete the Final Report in the fastest possible timeframe, maintaining the highest level of Quality standards.
Outcome
QPS achieved the objectives outlines by the Sponsor, delivering a tricky surgical study in a highly compressed timeframe, and delivering the Final Report in a timely manner. The sponsor was able to submit for, and receive, a CE mark, gain access to the European Market and launch this new medical device in Europe.
