BVMRF clinical trials are supported by a dedicated and experienced regulatory team that interfaces with the clinical team and the local IRB to ensure pristine and timely submissions. This method ensures a timely turnaround time for regulatory documents.

BVMRF study teams and management work together to perform an in-depth analysis of all protocols prior to accepting any new trial. BVMRF’s goal is to ensure that there is a sufficient population to maximize recruitment during the proposed study timeline. This process continues throughout the conduct of the trial as BVMRF study teams constantly discuss and evaluate enrollment and, if warranted, implement new or improved recruitment plans.

The James J. Peters VA Medical Center and the VA Hudson Valley Health Care System boast a superior team of motivated and focused Investigators who offer clinical trial experience in a wide range of therapeutic areas; they are thought leaders published in leading journals and frequent speakers. As leaders in their specialized fields, their insights move clinical research to a higher level.

BVMRF’s knowledgeable Investigators enthusiastically embrace clinical research and the opportunities that new therapies bring to veterans and the healthcare industry. BVMRF’s Investigators are also highly trained in Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations.

Investigators actively recruit patients from their clinics, meet with Clinical Research Associates (CRAs) during monitoring visits, and offer qualitative feedback regarding clinical trials. All BVMRF Investigators aim to provide sponsors with accurate, high-quality data.

Experienced and driven clinical research coordinators are integral to the success of any trial. BVMRF offers talented specialists to exceed clinical trial sponsor expectations consistently.

BVMRF’s clinical research nurses and coordinators are highly trained on BVMRF’s internal standard operating procedures, Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations.

All coordinators are certified by the Association of Clinical Research Professionals (ACRP) or the Society of Clinical Research Associates (SOCRA) and provided with ongoing, advanced state-of-the-industry training.

BVMRF research coordinators are experienced in managing all aspects of a particular trial. Best of all, they are creative problem solvers in their continuing efforts to improve local recruiting strategies.

The VA’s EMR is one of the top rated in the country. The EMR follows the subject across the VA medical system and gives us the access needed to ensure all adverse events are captured appropriately as well as dramatically reduces the number of lost to follow-up subjects.

Working with our site allows a sponsor access to the country’s largest integrated health care system. Once you have executed the VA’s Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with one site, you may use that template to work with any other VA Medical Center.
