Industry

WRA is seeking industry partners to execute Phase I-II clinical research studies with our experienced multidisciplinary network of wound care research specialist. All of our active clinicians and staff are qualified by both training and experience in the indications they will investigate. Our clinical teams are an integral part of the globally recognized UPMC health network with multiple wound care clinics, hospitals, outpatient care centers and rehabilitation facilities encompassing over 12,000 patients with wounds of many types including chronic or nonhealing wounds.

All our clinical sites are staffed by experienced clinical trial professionals. Both investigators and staff are trained in Good Clinical Practice and undergo continuous training and quality support.

In addition, we have worked with various agencies in identifying and supporting patient enrollment and intervention at UPMC facilities. For the past ten years, our clinicians and staff have worked with various sites establishing optimal protocols, assisting with regulatory and compliance elements, training personnel, managing data, and delivering successful interventions.
