OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Nov. 3, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Vince and Associates Clinical Research (VACR), a leading provider of Phase I-III clinical trial research, announced that Dr. Bradley Vince, Medical Director and President, recently shared his expertise at two drug development industry meetings focused on accelerating early clinical development studies.

Dr. Vince presented to pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry executives at the Healthcare Business Institute Proof of Concept conference on September 26, 2010 in Philadelphia, PA and again at the Exploratory Development World Congress on October 20, 2010 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Both meetings focused on early development strategies addressing the current need to rapidly advance new chemical entities into later stage clinical development and ultimately Food & Drug Administration (FDA) approval for commercialization.

"As a multi-specialty research unit, we utilize our patient experience to recruit and execute complex Proof of Concept studies, which can include both healthy normal subjects and intent-to-treat patient populations," said Dr. Vince. "We welcomed the opportunity to share our perspective, medical expertise and strength in early-stage drug development at these conferences."
