Case Study: Advance Research Associates achieves faster study builds and rapid mid-study changes with Medrio

Advance Research Associates Finds a Strong eClinical Partner in Medrio

Advance Research Associates (ARA), a 23‑year clinical data management and biostatistics firm that has completed 700 studies, needed to accelerate trial timelines and lower costs for sponsors—especially smaller companies—by using fast, flexible eClinical tools that allow easy study setup and quick mid‑study changes. To address this, ARA adopted Medrio, specifically using Medrio EDC, to improve study build and amendment workflows.

Medrio’s intuitive drag‑and‑drop EDC and rapid amendment capabilities let ARA reduce study build time by up to half and make mid‑study changes in minutes or hours, while transparent pricing and a painless sales process eased deployment. After nearly ten years with Medrio, ARA credits the platform with stronger client retention and referrals—72% repeat business and 28% referrals—helping them keep studies on time and on budget.
