Total Clinical Study Management

Point-of-use diagnostic device research programs are complex. DCN Dx’s clinical research organization manages them from concept to regulatory submission to deliver the data you need to get to market the right way. We comply with local and Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines, Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) principles, federal regulations, and more.

Clinical and Regulatory Strategy

DCN Dx considers every factor to develop regulatory pathways that make sense for your device. We’ll develop a formal roadmap you can trust to validate your point-of-use device early in the R&D process and save you time and expense.
