About the Clinical Trial Company
The Clinical Trial Company is a full service clinical contract research
organisation (CRO) and was formed in the UK in 2002. The founders of TCTC
realised that there was an opportunity in the CRO sector for a company which
targeted medium sized clinical trials and novel products which did not have a
classical road map to the market. The large CROs, for good business reasons,
prioritise studies from the big pharmaceutical companies. However, this
approach may sometimes disadvantage their smaller clients who are equally
keen to complete their clinical trials quickly.
The Clinical Trial Company is headquartered in Knutsford in Cheshire, UK with
regional offices in Toronto and Montreal in Canada, as well as Sydney and Perth
in Australia. TCTC also has operating divisions covering all aspects of drug
development including The CRA Company, The Regulatory Affairs Company,
The Clinical Training Company and the Clinical Quality Assurance Company.
