Cardiovascular/Metabolic clinical trials
ICON's cardiovascular trial experience, supported by a global team of experts
ICON has extensive experience in cardiovascular clinical research trials across the entire drug development spectrum.
Despite the advances in the cardio-metabolic field over the past 20 years, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The need to discover and develop better, safer and more cost-effective drugs and devices remains.
ICON, a full-service provider, takes a data-driven approach to develop strategies that will cut timelines and costs from First-in-Human (FIH) studies through post-approval. We have over 25 years of experience conducting cardiovascular trials with particular emphasis on key cardiovascular/metabolic indications: heart failure, lipid disorders, diabetes, renal insufficiency and renal transplant, arrhythmia, and rare diseases.
