EMS Healthcare Secures Deal

A mobile clinical research business based in Ellesmere Port has announced a partnership with a US-based company.

EMS Healthcare, the UK’s largest mobile clinical research specialist, announced the partnership with EmVenio Research yesterday (Tuesday, June 20), with the aim of conducting commercial clinical trials via a network of mobile sites in this country.

It is EmVenio’s first international venture and their expansion into the UK will utilise EMS Healthcare’s expertise in delivering clinical trials with greater diverse participation by using mobile clinics.

The NHS-Galleri cancer trial utilised EMS units and clinical staff to recruit 140,000 volunteers across the country in just 10 months.

The new collaboration will allow EmVenio to garner a wider demographic of research participants and diversify its clinical trial offerings, based on the needs of pharmaceutical sponsors and research organisations. The deal follows a dramatic fall in the number of commercial clinical trials initiated in the UK of more than 40% since 2017.
