Case Studies
Successful Hybrid Biometrics Model
A mid-sized biotech specializing in RNA-targeted therapeutics adopted a hybrid approach—maintaining core biostatistics leadership in-house while partnering with GCP ClinPlus for execution. This model supported three successful FDA NDA approvals with zero statistical errors, while achieving approximately $30 million in cost savings compared to building equivalent capabilities internally.
Flexible FSP Scaling for Changing Demands
A US subsidiary of a global ophthalmic pharmaceutical company utilized GCP ClinPlus' SAS programmer FSP services to manage workload fluctuations during peak trial periods. This approach allowed them to efficiently scale their biometrics team without permanent headcount costs—expanding capacity during critical submission preparation phases and reducing it during quieter periods.
