  • Costs covered include but are not limited to: CRO costs, protocol design fees and hospital/medical practitioner costs associated with design, implementation, monitoring and review of trial results
  • Access to lenders and financiers of clinical trials, who consider the insurance valid security*

*MCI can refer those interested to the necessary regulated entities but cannot advise on, or negotiate financial instruments (other than the CTF insurance itself)
