Overview

At Edge Trials, we know that in order to translate new life changing diabetes technologies to routine clinical care, rapid and efficient research is required. New Zealand is uniquely positioned to conduct first in human studies quickly due to efficient study start-up procedures. We have decades of experience working directly with sponsors to accelerate their research programs. Edge trials brings together a team that ensures feasibility studies are conducted safely, including the flexibility to offer round the clock monitoring for outpatient studies, or fully staffed inpatient or supervised study environments.

As an independent unit, we are flexible, and efficient, without compromising scientific integrity. Importantly, we conduct research across the lifespan, with our team having over a decade of experience in both paediatric and adult clinical trials.

We are located within the health precinct in Christchurch, New Zealand. Our team is strategically located alongside pharmacy, laboratory, radiology,  inpatient and outpatient facilities. Our premises are modern and world class in order to meet the needs of commercial trials, including regulatory studies

Questions? Answers!

Find quick answers to the most common questions we're being asked.

How long does it take from research concept to first patient first visit?

This depends on how complete and/or complex the study protocol. Typically from first contact to first patient first visit, is approximately 12 weeks.

How does Edge Trials differ from other research providers?

We have a unique set of skills – from being able to write protocols, set up electronic research databases, to statistical analyses. We can provide for short feasibility studies, to large scale multi-centre pivotal studies. We can cover the lifespan – with both paediatric and adult experience. Further, New Zealand is uniquely positioned, where regulatory processes for conducting first in human studies are efficient, and we can therefore accelerate research programs.

Do timezone differences from NZ cause issues?

The team at Edge are highly flexible. Having worked with international sponsors for over a decade, we’ve never encountered time-zone issues.

Is Edge Trials a CRO?

Edge Trials is not a CRO, however, we conduct all study procedures commonly performed by CROs. Reach out and find out what we can offer for your needs.

Would you conduct studies outside the diabetes technology space?

Discuss your study with us. We don’t conduct phase I and II studies, but are co-located within a research precinct that does, and can likely connect your needs with others if we can’t provide the service for your study needs. Our health expertise is within diabetes and endocrinology.
