The clinical research market in Russia is shaped by
the Soviet experience of medical industry development, which followed the
principles of advancement of big state multipurpose research centers and
conferring them significant administrative resources. That is why the rise of a
private research center «BioEq» to the level of state giants is not just a
recognition of high proficiency, but also an acknowledgement of effectiveness
of our business-model, which is focused on quality control and flexible
approach to clients’ needs. «BioEq» is the first Russian dedicated clinical
research unit for conduct of clinical research of early and late phases and
bioequivalence studies, located in St Petersburg.
Clinical research in Russia is still developing and
the country occupies the 23rd place in the ranking of most advanced
European clinical research markets. The Russian market has a great
developmental potential and there are more than 1000 clinics and medical sites
that have certification for clinical trials conduct. The Orange Paper by Synergy Research Group reports that in the first
and third quarters of 2017, «BioEq» hit the top five most demanded clinical research units for bioequivalence studies and phase I research.[1]
Despite the average
advancement of the Russian clinical research market, it is very competitive and
companies do their utmost to hit the top five. The clear majority of clinical
trials are conducted in phase III and bioequivalence studies. The growth rate of
phase III research and bioequivalence studies is 13% in three years. The number
of phase I research is also constantly growing. Statistics for three years
demonstrate that in the period from the 1st quarter of 2014 to the 2nd
quarter of 2017, Russian research sites conducted 977 bioequivalence studies,
197 phase I research, 294 phase II investigations, 1246 phase II research, and
only 92 phase IV studies. [2]
The center «BioEq»
accounts for a significant number of conducted trials. For 3,5 years of operating
activity the center was contracted more than 165 studies. In the 3rd
quarter of 2017, the clear majority of approved trials was in phase I and
bioequivalence research. It resulted in the rise of «BioEq» to the top five
Russian research sites, calculated on the basis of approved studies per center.
The secret of
«BioEq»’s» efficacy is not only in assurance of safety and high quality of
services, but also in our scalable research model: every day we are increasing
the number of research subjects, reducing enrolment periods, and improving the
quality of provided data. We are constantly advancing our center and thus
assuring the quality, control, and compliance to all regulations, ethical
norms, and ICH GCP requirements.
«BioEq» thanks the
Synergy Research Group team for statistics and congratulates all participants
on achieving top results!
