Cardiology

Medpace is home to renowned regulatory and therapeutic experts who are committed to the complex and intertwined therapeutic areas of cardiology.

With extensive experience in Phase I-IV research, our team of international therapeutic leaders have dedicated their careers to bringing drugs to market that treat or prevent heart disease. In fact, they have helped pioneer many of the preventative cardiovascular compounds introduced in the last 15 years.

Medpace has led the way by developing the tools and validating the methods for the use of carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) imaging as a method of directly measuring atherosclerosis progression. As a result, cIMT is becoming accepted by regulatory officials as an important method of demonstrating the benefit of novel therapies, potentially accelerating cardiovascular drug approval.

Medpace regulatory experts are former government officials who have invaluable insight into the specific area of cardiovascular drug approval. They are an integral part of every study and their valuable guidance ensures every step efficiently accelerates the approval process.
