Sanofi forms new alliance with CRN Greater Manchester

Sanofi has announced the formation of a new landmark clinical research partnership with the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Clinical Research Network (CRN) for Greater Manchester.

CRN Greater Manchester has been named as Sanofi's first UK Premier Site, a status designed to foster a mutually beneficial environment in which clinical trials sponsored by Sanofi will be supported by Manchester-based research experts and facilities.

This will help research institutions improve patient recruitment rates, provide greater opportunities for sites to participate in Sanofi studies, encourage collaboration on the design of clinical trials, and increase researchers' visibility into Sanofi's research activities.

Mital Desai, UK clinical studies head for Sanofi, said: "The working relationship will boost research and development efficiencies in start-up, recruitment and data quality, but ultimately we aim to ensure the patient is the real benefactor, by accelerating the introduction of new therapies."

CRN Greater Manchester supports the delivery of health research covering a population of almost three million people. It works with 14 NHS trusts and 11 clinical commissioning groups, incorporating more than 500 GP practices.
