Overview

The Clinical Research Center of Nevada (CRCN) collaborates with a multispecialty 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, Nev. Our physicians have an extensive patient population 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 that otherwise may not be available.

Investigator Experience

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 CRCs, most of whom are ACRP-certified and who have combined experience in various areas of clinical research totaling more than 50 years.

Patient Demographics

The Las Vegas/Clark County catchment area currently has a population of over 2.4 million and is continuously growing. Our experience shows that our community has a positive attitude toward clinical research and participates accordingly.

Other Information

CRCN continuously evaluates and improves its business processes to efficiently and accurately execute clinical trials. We are committed to reaching or exceeding enrollment requirements and ensuring the highest quality of data is captured. Dedicated regulatory, budget and contract staff ensure we are able to turn around time-sensitive documents promptly. For budgets and contracts this is typically less than one week. We always work with central IRBs.
