25 April 2018 - - US-based online clinical trial data provider ClinicalStudyDataRequest.com (CSDR) has formed strategic collaborations with four major non-profit partners: The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Cancer Research UK, Medical Research Council, and Wellcome Trust,.
The new consortium partners expand CSDR's ability to help accelerate life-saving discoveries and efficiently translate big data into smart data that generates valuable research results.
With the addition of non-profit partners, CSDR is uniquely positioned to not only serve the research community through access to patient-level clinical data from the pharmaceutical industry, but also as a resource through which academic-led clinical trial data now can be shared.
ClinicalStudyDataRequest.com is an online resource giving researchers access to patient-level clinical trial data from 14 pharmaceutical companies across multiple therapeutic areas.
Its multi-sponsor request system provides a secure process for researchers to request access to global clinical trial data through a publicly available website.
An independent review panel reviews data requests received from external researchers. Wellcome Trust provides secretarial support to this panel and oversees the review process.
