How it Works

QuickSTART is a streamlined start-up process supported by CTO in which engaged parties (sponsor, investigator and institution) agree to work in a streamlined fashion toward a 90-day study start-up goal. The clock starts ticking when sponsors send final study documents to their selected sites. Within 90 days, QuickSTART helps make sites activated and enrollment ready.
