Advanced Clinical Concepts

Recognizing the need to bring pharmaceutical companies and physicians together to advance clinical research and meet the future needs of patients, Advanced Clinical Concepts, Inc . was incorporated in February 2001. In May of 2005, Women's Clinic, Ltd. acquired ACC to expand the research capabilities of their large OB/GYN practice. This acquisition enabled the practice to offer patients the opportunity to participate in clinical studies. Examples of studies currently or previously conducted are Overactive Bladder, Nocturia, Stress Urinary Incontinence, Osteoporosis, Female Sexual Dysfunction, Endometriosis, Anemia, Amenorrhea, Hot Flashes, IBS, Abnormal Pap and Abnormal Mammogram.

The two Certified Clinical Research Coordinators of the company bring together their combined experience of over 30 years managing and coordinating trials for physicians and pharmaceutical companies.

The goal of Advanced Clinical Concepts is to conduct clinical trials in order to bring new drugs to market that will enable people to live longer, healthier, and more active lives. By participating in clinical research, we can all play a significant role in the growth and development of medicine in our area. Advanced Clinical Concepts brings pharmaceutical companies and patients together with the common goal of bringing treatment options to patients that are not yet available to the medical community.
