AMR Clinical, a US-based, multi-site research company, said on Monday it has acquired ClinOhio Research Services (ClinOhio), a multi-therapeutic research site founded in 2017 and based in Columbus, Ohio.

AMR says that the acquisition expands its geographic presence and strengthens capabilities in Dermatology, Women's Health, and Gastroenterology.

ClinOhio is involved in clinical research across several therapeutic areas. Its investigators bring experience in Dermatology, Women's Health, and Gastroenterology and are foundationally positioned to expand into additional specialties. This addition is expected to enhance AMR's capabilities and provide sponsors with improved access to patient populations in the Columbus market.

Integration with AMR is intended to leverage the company's established operational infrastructure, centralised support functions, sponsor relationships, and data capabilities to drive continued growth at the site, expand trial complexity, and enhance execution consistency across programs.
