What we do

A flexible research partner, from concept to close-out

The PCCTC is changing how cancer therapies and biomarkers are developed. Our infrastructure enables transparent project co-development between investigators, clinical research sites, and industry partners.

Trial Design and Development

PCCTC investigators and operations staff work with sponsors from first concept to finished protocol, so the design answers the scientific question and can be run efficiently at the sites that will enroll it.

Regulatory Services

The PCCTC coordinates regulatory document management across a project's lifecycle and serves as the single regulatory point of contact for sponsors and investigators, shortening the path from protocol to activated sites.

Medical, Site, and Centralized Monitoring

Medical monitoring, on-site and remote site monitoring, and centralized data surveillance run together under PCCTC SOPs, so safety signals and data-quality issues are caught early in every region of a study.

Medical Communications and Writing

Our dedicated medical writer and editor, both with oncology expertise, work with investigators, sponsors, regulators, and publishers across a project's lifecycle, from protocol to peer-reviewed manuscript.

Learn more

Registries and Real-World Evidence

The PCCTC designs and operates large multicenter registries on the infrastructure behind the international IRONMAN registry and the PCCTC-managed PROMISE germline registry, and is extending the model to colorectal, breast, and lung cancer.

Learn more

Quality Management

A dedicated quality function maintains the SOPs, study-specific plans, and oversight that keep every PCCTC-managed study inspection-ready.

Learn more

Contracts and Budgets

Budgeting and contracting tools, built for multicenter research, speed activation and set consistent terms across institutions.

Learn more

Advisory Boards and Clinical Development Consultation

Targeted advisory support without a full outsourcing commitment: advisory boards of leading academic investigators, clinical development strategy, study design, and operational and site feasibility.

Our expertise

Internationally recognized experts in oncology

PCCTC investigators practice at the world's top academic medical centers, where they run active translational research programs. They developed the universally adopted clinical states model of prostate cancer and led the endpoint-validation efforts behind PCWG2, PCWG3, and PCWG4. That trial-design depth now anchors the consortium's growth into new disease areas.
