Local and International Multicenter Quality of Life Studies

SGS understands that when customers buy products such as cosmetics or dietary supplements they are buying more than simply a product. With each purchase comes the promise of a benefit to the human body. We can help provide firm data to demonstrate the long-term advantages of your products to the body through our local and international multicenter quality of life studies.

With a network of seven clinical trial management offices local experts that span Europe and North of America, and two clinical pharmacology units in Belgium and France, SGS is uniquely placed to create a program of tests that not only assess your products against your own criteria but also regulatory requirements, both international and local.

SGS can utilize its drug development expertise and facilities to evaluate the effect of non-pharmaceutical products on humans, for example: their success in the prevention of chronic diseases such as obesity, cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

Our services include:

• Local and international multicentrique quality of life studies (long lasting): ambulatory or long lasting hospitalization
• Data management/biostatistics
• Pharmacovigilance: global handling including electronic reporting to EU Eudravigilance 
• Medical report writing

There is no ‘one size fits all’ approach to testing a product’s long-term impact on the body, so we base our programs on your particular needs.

Our consultants will be able to advise on those tests which are suitable for your product, but all of our tests can be carried out across multiple sites, including internationally, and over a prolonged period, so that you obtain a greater understanding of your product and accurate data to help market your product once it reaches the marketplace.
