Quintiles honoured as ‘Best CRO in Asia’ for fourth time in 6 years
Recognized for advancing clinical research in Asia, speeding development for customers.
Quintiles has been named the “Best CRO in Asia” at the 2016 BioPharma Asia Industry Awards, winning the honour for the fourth time in the event’s 6-year history. The award goes to the contract research organization that best demonstrates an ongoing commitment to improving clinical research services in Asia and reducing lead times for customers.
More than 1,000 votes were cast in the Best CRO category, and Quintiles was the overwhelming favorite,” said Sharon Roessen, managing director of Terrapinn Pte Ltd, organizer of BioPharma Asia Convention 2016. “In addition to reducing lead times and advancing clinical research, Quintiles was chosen for its ability to deliver end-to-end solutions for customers and its outstanding thought leadership. Quintiles has clearly elevated clinical research standards in Asia-Pacific.”
Accepting the award was Dr Ken Lee, Quintiles chief medical officer, Asia-Pacific, who said: “I accept this award on behalf of our 12,000-plus Quintiles professionals across Asia-Pacific who work tirelessly to speed the development of new and better medicines. We’re driven by our desire to help our customers improve their probability of success. We never lose sight of the patient — their lives depend on us.”
Over the past 18 months, Quintiles has continued to enhance its integrated services in the region:
This week’s BioPharma Asia Convention featured two Quintiles’ experts: Dr. Charu Manaktala, Head of Clinical Strategy, Strategic Drug Development-Asia, who spoke on the “Biosimilars regulatory environment and key considerations for customers in Asia”; and Katherine Smith, Director, Early Clinical Development, Asia-Pacific, who hosted a roundtable discussion on “Key considerations for conducting ECD studies in Asia.”
