Bridging studies

Some sponsors do bridging studies in Japanese volunteers to compare the results with Caucasian volunteers. Others bring Japanese studies to the UK because it is an easier and quicker route for drug development. We can help in both cases. We offer advice on the best design for your study, and give you the benefit of our extensive experience of running Japanese trials in the UK.
