How DCN Dx’s Clinical Research Team Met an Unmovable Deadline and Delivered Full Regulatory Success

This case study details how DCN Dx’s Clinical Research Services (CRS) division helped a sponsor fast-track a novel hepatitis C virus (HCV) molecular point-of-care test through a complex de novo authorization process—on a federal contract timeline with zero flexibility.

With just six months from kickoff to submission, DCN Dx executed a full clinical program involving over 15 hospital-affiliated sites, weekly biostatistical analysis, and real-time data management. The project team launched startup activities in parallel, solved enrollment issues through creative engagement strategies, and accelerated the entire workflow. Their efforts resulted in FDA clearance just three weeks after submission.

For sponsors facing aggressive timelines and high regulatory pressure, this case study shows how the right clinical research partner makes the difference.
