The Clinical Research Center of Nevada (CRCN) collaborates with a multi-specialty network of Board-certified physicians who conduct our clinical research trials. Our facility recruits, manages and executes clinical research protocols for pharmaceutical and biotechnical companies. We are centrally located in Las Vegas, Nevada. Our physicians have an extensive patient population, including HMO patients, from which to draw study subjects for our clinical research trials. These physicians integrate clinical research protocols into their private practice to provide patients with treatment options, which otherwise, may not be available.

CRCN has been involved in clinical research for approximately seven years. We conduct Phase II, III and IV clinical trials. Our therapeutic areas of experience include Allergy/Immunology, Anesthesiology, Cardiology, Endocrinology, Family Practice Medicine, Gastrointestinal Medicine, General Surgery, Internal Medicine, Neurology, Ophthalmology, Otolaryngology, Pain Medicine, Pediatrics, Podiatry, Pulmonary Medicine, Rheumatology, Sleep Medicine, Urology and Women’s Medicine.

The following is an abbreviated list of study sponsors/CROs CRCN has worked with on clinical research trials:

Abbott Acambis Agouron Alcon Allergan Amgen Astra-Zeneca Aventis Berlex Bristol-Myers-Squibb Cephalon CRM Elan

Fujisawa GlaxoSmithKline Immunex Kendle MDS PharmaServices MedImmune Merck & Co., Inc. Novartis Novum Paragon Biomedical Parexel Pfizer PharmaResearch

PPD Development Quintiles, Inc. Roxanne Laboratories Sanofi-Synthelabo SciRex SFBC Takeda TAP Wyeth XOMA

Our main office complex is a 2,500 square foot building with three additional satellite offices throughout the Valley. From this center, we have brought together an extensive network of outpatient diagnostic services. Through this network, we provide outpatient clinical research services, as well as most diagnostic services required for the various therapeutic areas in which we conduct clinical trials. We always work with central IRB's.

Additionally, our facility is equipped with the following items:

• ECG machine
• Laboratory and phlebotomy area
• Ample monitor work area
• Fax/Photocopy
• Centrifuge
• Spirometry (Adult and Pediatric)
• -20° freezer
• Internet access
• E-mail
• Secure, locked study drug storage facility (refrigerated and non-refrigerated)
• Secure record retention facilities
• -80° freezer

CRCN’s network of board certified physicians actively promote opportunities for individuals in our community to participate in clinical trials. Our physicians are teamed up with dynamic clinical research coordinators, most of whom are ACRP certified, and who have combined experience in various areas of clinical research of more than 40 years.

The Las Vegas Valley currently has a population of over 1.4 million people and is continuously growing. As predicted by 2007, the Valley will have at least three million residents. Based on our experience, we have observed positive study participant and community response to clinical research trials.

CRCN continuously strives to efficiently and accurately execute clinical trials. We are committed to completing studies by reaching or exceeding enrollment requirements and ensuring the highest quality of data is captured for study sponsors through articulate documentation practices. CRCN has an excellent track record of meeting protocol enrollment goals and completing studies in a timely and efficient manner.
