SOCAR recognises that a carefully designed study in addition to a detailed statistical analysis plan provides the foundation for a meticulous and accurate interpretation of data collected in any clinical research project. Our statisticians’ involvement in a research project commences at the initiation of the project right through to its conclusion.

Over the past 25 years, SOCAR has gained valuable expertise and experience in developing and writing statistical analysis plans in addition to performing statistical analyses with varying complexity for small to large-scale clinical research studies. Our experienced team of statisticians and programmers who are trained to ICH GCP and other industry standards, produce comprehensive, high-quality, timely analysis and reporting of the study results.
