Clinical Research
EMSCO provides services including review of trial design, medical writing, support with essential clinical trial documents, contracts, publications, management and coordination of clinical trials and other projects associated with MDS. EMSCO’s multilingual staff has ample experience in the international context and is therefore apt to fulfil these tasks.
One of the major goals of EMSCO is to offer an expert MDS office team to assist, design and review clinical trials in MDS. The group offers full-service Sponsor responsibilities across Europe with KOLs in the participating countries to take over CPI roles and experienced staff for comprehensive trial management tasks. Within this environment we aim to improve the quality and comparability of clinical trials in MDS.
