Investigator-Initiated Trials (IITs) in China offer global biopharmaceutical and biotech companies a unique opportunity to accelerate early-phase research, explore new indications, and engage in cutting-edge clinical science in a cost-effective and flexible manner. Unlike traditional sponsor-initiated studies, IITs in China can follow different regulatory pathways, making them particularly attractive for studies where speed, innovation, and scientific exploration are priorities.
Our team brings over 22 years of CRO experience, backed by robust regulatory knowledge and well-established connections with China’s top academic centers, hospitals, and leading investigators. These relationships are essential for the success of IITs, particularly when navigating protocol design, hospital ethics committees, and patient enrollment strategies.
We offer end-to-end IIT support, including:
Feasibility assessment & protocol review
Site and PI identification and engagement
Budget negotiation and site contracting
Regulatory guidance for different IIT pathways
Project management, monitoring, data management, and medical writing
