About DP Clinical

DP Clinical is a privately-held, minority-owned contract research organization (CRO) located in the I-270 Technology Corridor in Rockville, Maryland serving pharmaceutical and biotechnology clients. Providing our clients with monitoring, data management, analysis, and biostatistics for Phase I – IV clinical trials, DP Clinical has built a strong reputation for high standards of quality, data integrity, cost-effectiveness and client satisfaction.

We have conducted Phase I – IV clinical trials ranging in size from 10 – 850 patients, and have worked on projects resulting in two NDA approvals and one PMA approval. In addition, we have been selected as a core service provider for pharmaceutical organizations. 

Our organization is small, allowing us to stay nimble and focused on client satisfaction as our primary goal. Being small does not limit what we can do, however – we boast many of the same benefits as larger companies, including the capability to conduct trials locally, nationally and internationally. 

In addition to our headquarters in Rockville, we have ten regional offices located throughout North America, each staffed by trained DP Clinical employees. We also have affiliates in Central and South America, Europe and India. Our geographic reach allows us to provide high-quality, cost-effective monitoring for our clients’ clinical trials.

DP Clinical has worked in a wide range of therapeutic areas, giving our skilled staff the experience necessary to meet our client’s needs. A sampling of the areas in which we have worked includes:

Our staff of Clinical Research Associates (CRAs) is highly skilled, holding either an RN degree or a BS or MS in a scientific discipline.  We also conduct our own rigorous, ongoing in-house training program for all employees. Our attrition rate for CRAs is less than 10% -- an important consideration given that one of the keys to high-quality clinical trial data is consistency and experience.

Monitoring and data management establish the foundation for the critical element of data analysis. DP Clinical builds upon that foundation with an excellent clinical data management and biostatistics (CDMB) organization. Our CDMB services include protocol development, development of case report forms, electronic data capture, electronic data coding utilizing industry-standard dictionaries, as well as data preparation, statistical analysis and report generation. Our focus on quality in this critical area has resulted in a very low query rate as audited by clients and external organizations.
