The complex business environment of the 21st century would not be possible without the existence of contract law. Simply put: contracts make doing business possible, furthermore clinical trial agreements can make the difference between a successful or a challenged clinical study.

CTA Focus wants to bring quality back to study-startup, which is why we have a team of experts in contract management with extensive experience in clinical studies and their applicable legal frame. Every contract is reviewed by the company´s internal team of attorneys, who are not outsourced to a law firm. Every contract and budget is also quality checked by a peer prior to signature, to ensure the budget aligns with the project´s Protocol.

Innovative drug development requires an innovating legal approach.

At CTA Focus, we are all about taking full advantage of new technology, we provide our clients with 24/7 online access to the up-to-date contract and budget negotiation tracking system.

Our dynamic is fluid, we align our approach to your project’s particularities and offer tailored support every step of the process. The company´s goal is to streamline the process with as much transparency as possible, in order to ensure meeting turnaround time expectations which are aligned with the clinical team.

“A contract is not about what you hope happens in a business arrangement; it’s about what you hope it does not happen”
