U.S.-based IACT Health and Canada-based LMC Manna Research announced a strategic alliance to integrate their operations. As two of the clinical research industry’s most extensive site networks, the alliance creates one of the largest consolidated research networks in North America, with more than 40 sites, access to over 1.5 million patients, and more than 150 active investigators.
Shared technology, marketing, recruitment, business development, contracts, budgets, standard operating procedures, and more are expected to further expand the operational efficiencies that IACT Health and LMC Manna Research already offer the industry.
“We are thrilled to join forces with such a highly-qualified and reputable research organization that brings such deep experience and a proven track record of delivering on their clincal trials year after year,” said Dr. Jeff Kingsley, CEO of IACT Health. “Both companies share a commitment to quality, safety, patient satisfaction, and customer service that will position us as the preferred option for pharmaceutical and biotech companies, Contract Research Organizations (CROs), patients, and providers alike.”
“LMC Manna Research is excited about the opportunity to work with IACT Health’s talented team, who share our approach to integrated research sites and systems, and place strong emphasis on quality and patient experience,” said Karri Venn, President of LMC Manna Research. “Together, we will offer sponsors and CROs a single point of contact to perform their clinical studies across North America, while providing meaningful and strategic combined research operations across these two networks to create North America’s pre-eminent clinical research network.”
