PRA International opens office in Korea

PRA International has opened up a new office in South Korea to manage clinical trials. It has been conducting trials in the area since 2005, but mostly through local partners.

Edward Ian, who is director of PRA’s Asia-Pacific efforts stated:
"Increasing customer expectations and project needs have prompted us to establish a legal entity and a local team of clinical professionals. We anticipate significant growth of our operations in South Korea in the next few years to conduct clinical studies across a wide array of therapeutic indications, including oncology, neurology, respiratory disorders, infectious diseases and cardiovascular, endocrinology and metabolic disorders.”
