Transforming clinical research through innovation
ICON’s technology solutions are focused on the factors most critical to your needs. With expertise in technology harmonisation and systems integration, our innovative tools and platforms can be adopted smoothly, to enhance collaboration, increase transparency and drive productivity gains.
End-to-end eClinical Solutions
ICON is deploying decentralised clinical trials globally, in multiple therapeutic areas and will support you in navigating the assessment, planning and execution for better outcomes.
Central Laboratories
ICON offers a full range of central laboratory services dedicated to the delivery of high quality, harmonised data to facilitate the efficient and accurate assessment of drug efficacy and safety.
In-Home services
Reducing patient burden is especially important in oncology studies. Making it convenient for the patient to continue assessments and stay engaged in the trial will support the patient and help you to keep your trial on track. Accellacare In-Home Services can be provided in all phases and a wide range of therapeutic areas.
Medical Imaging
ICON delivers comprehensive medical imaging services across a broad range of therapeutic areas. Supported by leading edge technology platforms to streamline image collection, management and analysis, we help clients improve decision making, increase efficiency and potentially reduce study costs.
End-to-end cardiac safety support
ICON can help to assure the safety of all your clinical trial participants with end-to-end cardiac safety solutions, including electrocardiography (ECG), event monitoring, blood pressure monitoring (BPM), long-term Holter monitoring, echocardiography (ECHO) and multi-gated acquisition scan (MUGA) studies.
Addressing obesity's impact across the disease spectrum
As global obesity rates rise, the pressure to develop effective and scalable treatments is mounting. Read our latest whitepaper, survey and case study for insights to help guide clinical trial design and drug development strategies to support your pipeline.

Each Cell and Gene Therapy (CGT) study requires a personalised approach. By collaborating with our experts, your study will benefit from a customised strategy delivered with flexibility and expertise. Our experience and organisational structure allow us to support the needs of both large pharmaceutical companies and biotech CGT developers.
Boost trial efficiency with real-world intelligence and tokenisation
Late-stage research for immuno-oncology trials introduces unique challenges. ICON’s specialised services can address these through access to large-scale, patient-reported and real-world data, which can be visualised, aggregated, and analysed. In addition, we employ cutting-edge techniques to link clinical trial data to real-world and third-party data without compromising patients’ identity. The compounding power of tokenisation translates to the accumulation of intelligence, so clinical trials can achieve timely regulatory approval and utilise patient data beyond initial investment for pre-approval and commercialisation.

Maximise immuno-oncology trial success through strategic decentralisation
With the rising cost and time to bring new drugs to market, and the need to increase patient diversity and retention, there is increasing demand for decentralised and hybrid immuno-oncology trials. ICON’s commercial connected health platforms, real-world data and information solutions—together with a global site network, home health services and wearables expertise—enable patient-centric decentralised and hybrid trial solutions.
Integrated endpoint management and adjudication solutions
Study endpoints are increasingly complex, and endpoint adjudication is becoming a focal point of regulators. With a key opinion leader network of 650 experts, ICON supports consistent reporting across regions and provides a quality control check through the clinical expert review of principal investigator reporting.
Our adaptable, client-oriented team has developed efficient processes to deliver successful results. Our integrated endpoint management capabilities (eCOA, ePRO), include rating-scale licensing through Mapi Research Trust, the holder of over 5,000 COAs and distributor of more than 600 questionnaires.
Following the acquisition of HumanFirst, ICON's ability to accelerate and improve digital health technology (DHT) selection to optimise protocol design is further enhanced.
Interactive Response Technology (IRT)
ICON’s IRT services are under-pinned by a team of experienced operational and technical professionals specially qualified in the design, development, and management of IRT solutions for randomisation and trial supply management throughout the life of the study.
Streamline site selection and study start up
The length and complexity of cardiovascular clinical trials make it hard to accurately estimate enrolment and study timelines. ICON can help you to navigate these challenges with an extensive global site network and industry-leading tools to support all aspects of feasibility and site identification.
One Search is ICON's proprietary, intuitive, integrated workflow and AI interrogation tool with access to multiple data sources. It provides the visualisation and data necessary for optimum site identification, to predict which sites have the highest probability to enrol subjects, based on ICON and broader industry data of capability, experience and performance.
