The sponsor was very pleased with the overall outcome of the inspections.
PSNResearch Germany successfully completed a clinical trial conducted in twelve EU countries. Mastering the challenges of an orphan disease’s limited patient pool more than 150 patients were enrolled.
The convincing results prompted the sponsor to start the phase III study.
PSNResearch began operating with the Clinical Trials Management System database of a top five pharmaceutical company in 2009. The initial service was provided for Spain, but after only a year, it was extended to UK, Germany, France, Italy, Ireland and Portugal. In 2014, another 26 mostly European
countries were added; and since October 2015, requests from all over the world are being managed. Currently, the PSNResearch team of 13 qualified professionals, work on the data entry activity, daily record and quality control, managing more than 2,500 monthly requests within a 24-48 hour period.
Gene and cell therapies represent now the future for many diseases. Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products need experienced CROs with a good knowledge in the implicated regulation. A good risk environmental plan needs to be set up from toxicology studies to human clinical trials;
the adaptation of good manufacturing practices for these special processes should be considered from initial scientific advice, final reports need to be adapted to regulatory requirements. PSNResearch has participated in more than 8 cell therapy and 3 gene therapy programs in different disorders.
PSNResearch Spain was involved in a fast track authorization of a Genetically Modified Organism voluntary release in the context of a CT for Ebola vaccine. GMO in the EU is regulated by specific legislation, implicating an additional authorization for a risk management plan for workers and environment.
We were able to obtain the authorization in only 1.5 months knowing that the regulatory pathway is usually taking 4-6 months for each country. The regulatory support from Spain made possible to open the trial in Europe obtaining this authorization just on time for the competitive recruitment.

Our regulatory/medical affairs team succeeded to have the PIP approved to support a pediatric use marketing authorization (PUMA) of metformin. The PUMA will be supported by a pivotal phase 3 study, METFIZZ, investigating metformin in adolescents with PCOS.
The symptoms of PCOS in adolescent girls may lead to infertility in later years. It was known that off-label use of the diabetes drug metformin can be helpful in adults, but there were no studies to establish safety and efficacy in younger patients, nor were there age-appropriate dosages.
This large, late stage clinical study (4400 patients, at 200 sites in 14 countries) compared a peroral and a parenteral product using a “double dummy” technique to ensure that the study remained double blinded. Both investigational drugs were marketed products.
All drug was shipped from the facility in the Copenhagen area directly to the sites or to local warehouses.
Our goal is always to ensure high quality study medication is at site in good time for patient enrolment.
Lev Pharmaceuticals’ Cinryze®, a prophylaxis against hereditary angioedema (HAE), was approved by the FDA after successful pivotal clinical trial. HAE can cause life-threatening swelling of the airway, along with non-life-threatening swelling of the extremities.
