Berlin-based clinical research alliance, Medis Research Group, has added Berlin-Brandenburg-based Onkodatamed to its portfolio. Medis Research Group, founded in November, previously consisting only of its two founding members, Allied Clinical Management and ICRC-Weyer, both Berlin-based CROs. The group was formed to better meet requirements of clinical trial sponsors for one-stop shop solutions, hence enabling the two CROs to combine clinical research experience and provide complete service solutions across all stages of the clinical development process.

Onkodatamed is a specialist provider of remote data capture solutions within a network of dermatologic, urologic and gynecologic oncologists. Through this network, Medis Research Group now has access to one of the largest epidemiological and clinical oncology databases in Europe containing information on thousands of patients currently in treatment—a valuable source for retrospective data analysis.

Dr. Lutz Reimer, managing director of Onkodatamed, said, “The group’s clinical research services complement the portfolio of Onkodatamed, enabling us to jointly provide a wide range of services for the conduct of entire trial projects and retrospective data analysis. On the other hand, we can contribute to the group with our proven remote data capture software ODM QuaSi, as well as our large database of urologic and gynecologic oncology patients.”
