Biostatistics expertise across every clinical trial phase

Whether you are planning a first-in-human study or preparing a regulatory submission, our senior biostatisticians become an extension of your team; shaping study design, defining the statistical strategy behind it, and producing analyses that hold up under regulatory review.

How our expertise underpins each area of biostatistics

Study design & statistical analysis planning

Statistical strategy defined from the start, with the right study design, endpoints and analysis approach in place before the first patient is enrolled.

Specialist statistics & consulting

Senior statistical expertise for complex questions, from advanced modelling and non-clinical statistics to strategic consulting.

Where our biometrics expertise shows up in delivery

Consulting

Biostatistics consulting

Some questions are best answered before the protocol is written. Our senior biostatisticians advise on study design, statistical approach and regulatory readiness, with consulting support for the questions that need a closer look.

Questions we’re often asked

Do you take on adaptive designs end-to-end?
Yes — sample-size re-estimation, seamless phase II/III, BOIN/CRM/mTPI dose-finding, basket and umbrella trials. We write the adaptive sections of the protocol and the IDMC charter, and we execute the interim work.
How do you handle ICH E9(R1) estimands?
Estimand framework end-to-end: target population, treatment, endpoint, intercurrent-event strategy, and population-level summary. Standard intercurrent events are pre-specified in the SAP with regulatory rationale for each strategy choice.
Can you work on an FSP basis?
Yes — single-discipline biostatistics FSP, multi-discipline FSP (biostats + programming + CDM), and hybrid models that combine FSP with project-based surge for submissions or rescues.
Have you supported pivotal regulatory submissions?
Many times. Multiple sponsor-led FDA and EMA submissions; multiple sponsor-triggered inspections covering biostatistics, all closed with no critical or major findings. ISS/ISE work is a regular part of our portfolio.
