Revealing new opportunities in cardiovascular drug development
Beating cardiovascular disease requires a strategic, scientific approach; from tracking changing disease patterns in an aging population to developing cutting-edge approaches to disease management, it’s no easy task. That's why you need a trusted partner who keeps pace with the rapidly evolving marketplace and has vast experience with small molecules, device-based therapeutics and biologics. At Labcorp, our dedicated cardiovascular specialists have a unique combination of both academic and industry experience that provides you with insightful study design, predictive study management and operational service excellence.
Enable success by leveraging cardiology expertise and precision delivery
The primary reason for late-stage drug failure in cardiovascular trials is the inability to document improvement in outcomes. Therefore, we begin working with you as early as the preclinical phase to design outcomes oriented programs that help minimize risk and maximize your chance for success.
Get answers on safety earlier using our nonclinical cardiovascular safety assessment techniques and gain critical information for your “go/no-go” decision
Add value to your study through our experience in cardiac ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear scanning and computed tomography (CT) angiography by capitalizing on our team of physicians who currently serve, or have served, as academic and core imaging laboratory directors
Validate your drug’s safety and efficacy by proactively identifying biomarkers—assays, multicomponent panels or imaging-based—that are most predictive of risk or success
Go beyond surrogate biomarkers by demonstrating actual improvements in cardiovascular outcomes with well-designed trials
Reach your clinical development goals faster with specialized design and conduct of Phase I–Phase IV trials across a wide range of small molecules, devices and biologics including genetic therapies, peptides, enzyme replacement and stem cells
We are all about outcomes
Navigating the specific complexities of cardiovascular mega-trials is a big challenge. Success often depends on investigator interest and recruitment of appropriate patient populations. To point you toward success, we have partnered with cardiovascular academic research organizations who provide both medical and scientific leadership as well as insight into investigator and site quality. This partnership, in combination with Labcorp's proprietary Xcellerate® knowledgebase—the world’s largest database of site selection and clinical laboratory data—enables you to identify patients for your trial faster, saving valuable time and money.
Once your trial is up and running, we will help to further reduce your timelines through proven operational efficiencies learned from prior successes in more than 200 global clinical endpoint trials.
End-to-end cardiology solutions aligned with your needs
We deliver a holistic suite of services for cardiovascular drug development. From lead optimization through commercialization, we have the expertise and resources to help manage the complexity of your molecule and transform your results.
