Clinical Research

Introduction

Septa’s R&D sourcing and supplies division focuses providing services for Clinical Research and distribution of pharmaceutical products. Through our global product sourcing network coupled with secondary packaging abilities, we are a one-stop-shop for global clinical supplies. We also partner with hospitals, doctors and patients to provide access to unlicensed medicines or manage drug shortages including Managed Access, Early Access and Global Access programs.

For Doctors / Patients

We help patients and doctors to obtain early access to products that have yet to be launched in their country or products that are in shortage (Special Access Scheme and Exceptional Import Permission). These products can range from varying product-developmental stages i.e. Pre-approval clinical trial medicines currently or Post approval unlicensed products. We provide access to drugs, therapies and treatments for rare diseases, oncology and orphan drugs.

For Innovators

We work with trial sponsors to provide clinical trial material supplies. We help navigate critical and complex requirements for clinical trials such as stringent regulatory environments, sourcing hurdles and confidential trial protocols. We also understand that time is of the essence for Clinical Trials and hence provide an unparalleled access to comparators and RLDs globally without supply disruptions.

For Hospitals

Globally, Hospitals face product shortages daily for life saving drugs. We provide access to essential drugs to hospitals that are either commercially unavailable due to drug shortages or are currently unlicensed and unmarketed. Our strong, stringent and keen focus on quality ensures that authentic products are sourced and supplied directly to hospitals and speciality clinics quickly and efficiently.
