CTRI Confirms Leading Indian CRO Supports Majority of Hemophilia Trials in India


Max Neeman International is the only CRO in India to manage hemophilia trials according to the Clinical Trials Registry-India (CTRI). Of the total hemophilia trials currently being conducted in India, Max Neeman can boast supporting 80% of these with the remaining conducted by pharma companies. 

Max Neeman International has established a team of experts specialized in carrying out hemophilia trials in response to sponsor demand. The team has the required expertise via involvement of academia with industry, hemophilia trial experience and extensive database of best Investigators for indication to develop innovative approaches to optimize complex study design. Often strict inclusion/exclusion criteria and data analysis for such studies create the greatest challenge for Biotech and Pharma that the company's expertise can address.




Max Neeman is a leading CRO in India that has a focus on hemophilia and bleeding disorder studies, in addition to other indications. Patient enrollment for complex global and multi-centric hemophilia trials is challenging because potential subjects are fewer in number and widely dispersed. With an Incidence of 1 in 10,000 people, India has more than 120,000 hemophilic and thus it has evolved into a preferred destination for conducting such trials because of low cost and faster patient recruitment.

Registration of herbal trials in CTRI is not mandatory

A trial patient visited the site complaining breathlessness and tachycardia. The investigator advised hospitalization but as subject could not afford the expenses, he refused for admission. Is this an SAE because investigator advised hospitalization? G Praveen Kumar. If the patient was not hospitalized, it does not fall into SAE criteria of hospitalization. However, it appears from your mail that the PI felt that the event was serious enough to admit the subject for treatment. This makes it an “important medical event."

See the ICH E2A excerpt below: Medical and scientific judgement should be exercised in deciding whether expedited reporting is appropriate in other situations, such as important medical events that may not be immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalisation but may jeopardise the patient or may require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed in the defin...

The polypill: Medicine's magic bullet

The capsule costs pennies, contains a simple cocktail of medicines, and halves the number of strokes and heart attacks. Doctors want to hand it out in the first mass medication for the middle-aged in Britain. So why are the big drug companies so uninterested? The magic bullet, containing five medicines in a single capsule, sharply reduced cholesterol and blood pressure levels and has the potential to "halve cardiovascular events in average middle-aged individuals", the researchers say. The finding is a major boost for a medication with huge potential against the worldwide epidemic of heart disease and stroke. Doctors say that, if further trials prove successful, all men aged over 50 and women aged over 60 should be offered the pill in what would be the first example of mass medication for the middle-aged in Britain. Yet no Western pharmaceutical company has shown interest in developing the so-called polypill because it does not promise big profits. It would sell for pennies b...
