Care Access Research announced a collaboration with AstraZeneca to accelerate a clinical trial in the US for AZD7442, AstraZeneca’s long-acting monoclonal antibody (LAAB) combination for the potential prevention of COVID-19. Care Access is supporting the Phase III clinical trial called STORM CHASER, which will assess the safety and efficacy of AZD7442 for post-exposure prophylaxis and pre-emptive treatment in approximately 1,125 participants in the US and UK. Participants in this trial will include adults over 18 years of age following exposure to SARS-COV-2 and who are therefore at appreciable risk of developing COVID-19. The trial will include people living or working at long-term care facilities as well as industrial and military settings. The Care Access and AstraZeneca teams are collaborating to rapidly develop, deploy, and manage clinical research sites across the country, using Care Access’ innovative Mobile Sites On Demand capability to bring research capabilities – including people, equipment, software, and processes – to places and communities that would otherwise have limited access to clinical trials, such as long term care facilities. Care Access is uniquely equipped with the operational systems and staff required to mobilize the entire clinical research operation and bring it directly to patients.
