Integrated clinical trial delivery
in Northern Europe
CTC combines full-service CRO capabilities with an in-house
Site Network across Sweden and the Netherlands.
CRO and sites, working as one
Clinical trials often require sponsors to coordinate CRO teams, recruitment providers and independentsites. Each additional interface introduces another dependency.
At CTC, clinical operations, recruitment, monitoring, data, safety and site delivery are connected withinone organisation. This enables closer coordination across the study and provides sponsors with onepartner across clinical trial delivery.
Clearer oversight
CRO and site teams work within a shared operational structure.
Fewer handovers
Recruitment, clinical conduct and study oversight are coordinated from the start.
Direct clinical capacity
Access professional research units across Sweden and the Netherlands through one network.


From first dose to decision-ready data
Early development decisions depend on more than successful clinical conduct.
CTC combines study design, clinical pharmacology, hospital-based First-in-Human conduct, biometricsand reporting to support sponsors from protocol development to interpretable study results.
Our dedicated First-in-Human unit is located at Uppsala University Hospital and provides access toexperienced medical teams and hospital infrastructure.
Relevant capabilities include:
First-in-Human, SAD and MAD studies
Clinical pharmacology and PK/PD support
