Research Professionals DCT is the GCP compliant CRO with industry leading Decentralized Clinical Trial (DCT) capabilities.

DCT Medical Research Nursing that brings the study to the subject

Research Professionals DCT has built itself into an industry leader dedicated to managing Decentralized Clinical Trials (DCTs) serving sponsor companies. Our Central and Eastern European (CEE) network uses a retained medical research nursing model that can bring the convenience of decentralized clinical trials home to subjects without compromising the integrity or quality of the clinical research study. Research Professionals DCT has been managing decentralized clinical trials in subject homes, workplaces and even schools since 2017, with its staff of specially trained medical research nurses who fully understand the requirements of conducting decentralized research studies.

We bring the site visits to the subjects in their own homes, while still maintaining all of the confidentiality and safety requirements of a traditional in-clinic study. As an early adopter in the provision of decentralized clinical trials, Research Professionals has built the unique DCT specific SOPs, infrastructure and training necessary to efficiently manage home care nursing studies across a number of EU member states to the strictest regulatory and quality standards.

Decentralized Clinical Trials (DCTs) are an emerging option for the conduct of research studies. Recent events including the COVID-19 pandemic provided an opportunity to demonstrate the practicality and many benefits of decentralized clinical trials. These include expanded geographic flexibility and access to subject pools that are otherwise unable to travel to traditional clinical sites. DCTs can also deploy new connectivity driven technology that makes remote data acquisition and monitoring a reality. Research Professionals recognized the opportunity and invested in the development of DCT specific SOPs, practices, and technologies as well as the hiring of medical research nurses that are highly trained in-home care nursing as well as the requirements of participation in clinical trials. This proactive strategic decision has positioned Research Professionals as a leading provider of complete DCT services from its operational base located in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE).
