Informing the drug development and commercialization industry
Cary, N.C. – January 28, 2015 – Industry Standard Research (ISR) has announced the availability of a new report titled, “CRO Quality Benchmarking – Preclinical Service Providers.” This report provides a Consumer Reports-style analysis of 446 service encounters across 42 preclinical CROs.
“Each of these preclinical CROs was evaluated across 22 service quality attributes,” explained Kevin Olson, CEO of Industry Standard Research. “From these evaluations, the respondents have indicated there are several high performing providers, two of which particularly stand out, MPI Research and BioReliance. Both of these providers rank among the top performers for several of the attributes rated as most important by survey respondents. These include: Therapeutic Expertise, Scientific Knowledge, Data Quality Metrics, and Experience Conducting Specific Tests and Assays,” continued Olson.
The report also addresses market conditions for preclinical activities. “Overall, growth in outsourced preclinical services appears strong,” stated Olson. “Providers should anticipate overall growth in the mid-single digits.” The report provides individual growth figures for 9 specific preclinical services including: Analytical Methods (Chemistry), Animal Models, In Vitro ADME Studies, In Vivo ADME Studies, Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics, Preformulation, Safety Pharmacology, and Toxicology.
Without prior experience with a provider, purchasers of CRO services are often forced to rely on incomplete or biased assessments of CRO performance passed on through word of mouth from peers within the industry. In this Benchmarking report, ISR provides the data necessary to make smarter, more informed, confident decisions and provides CROs the ability to understand their competitive strengths and weaknesses to better meet customer needs going forward.
