    Overview

    AGA Clinical Trials is a multispecialty clinical research unit with sites in South Florida and South America and 12 full-time clinical research coordinators with more than 120 years of combined experience in metabolic, cardiovascular, dermatologic, neurological, men's and women's health, gastrointestinal, cosmetics, devices, nutraceuticals and vaccine studies.

    We are proud to announce to our sponsors/CROs that we opened a site in Ecuador, South America, in 2011, currently conducting trials for phases 2 to 4. The facility offers centralized enrollment, reduced costs compared with trials conducted in the US (30-35%), bilingual personnel, a dollarized country, regulatory times of < 60 days, and a large pool of patients (9,700) who are open to volunteer for clinical trials. Recruitment is supported from our board-certified physicians in different areas from two of the largest public hospitals in South America.

    Our facilities are fully functional, complete and ready for a site-qualification visit anytime you wish to come.
