Why choose Quintiles in Latin America?
In Latin America we provide fully integrated services for Phase I-IV studies including central laboratory services and report writing for US and European (FDA, EMEA, and ICH-GCP) regulatory submissions. Access to patients is rapid, and is concentrated in general tertiary hospitals and a few specialty hospitals with which Quintiles has long-standing relationships.
All of this makes Latin America a logical first choice for clinical trials. And we are the ones who make it work for you.

Drug Approval Trends at the FDA and EMEA
Process improvements, heightened scrutiny and industry response
• Delayed approvals. Regulators are requesting more data to validate or refute conclusions about product risks. This is creating a rise in the size and number of clinical trials as well as overall research budgets.
• Rising R&D costs. Drug developers are continually increasing their R&D expenditures to generate approvable drug applications, despite rising financial pressures in the industry. Emerging technologies such as stem cells, genomics and proteomics are among the most prevalent initiatives being used to identify appropriate drug candidates.
• US generics focus. The FDA is allocating resources to generic drug approvals in an attempt to speed these products to market. However, although Europe has recently developed a clear regulatory path for generic versions of biologicals, this is yet be achieved in the US.
• Regulatory process improvements. Regulators are enhancing their drug review processes with new technologies such as electronic drug applications and technology-based standards for drug review.
