Title: Clinical Research Study Budgeting Trends<br />

Abstract:<br />

Poster Abstracts<br />

<strong>The</strong> Center for Clinical Research at University Hospitals <strong>of</strong> Cleveland (UHC) provides legal and<br />

budget review, and administrative support, for over 360 clinical studies annually, which span<br />

twenty-four academic and clinical departments. Each study is governed by unique legal and fiscal<br />

terms. <strong>The</strong> budgets for these studies must not only reimburse for the fair market value <strong>of</strong> the<br />

medical services provided, but must also comply with numerous regulations designed to protect<br />

the interests <strong>of</strong> subjects enrolling in these studies.<br />

Many factors cause these budgets to differ. A review <strong>of</strong> 120 clinical research study agreements and<br />

budgets executed in 2004 was conducted across the various medical disciplines to understand<br />

where trends existed in clinical research budgets. <strong>The</strong>se budgets were reviewed to determine the<br />

effects <strong>of</strong> the differences in the per subject reimbursement: (i) by medical discipline; (ii) by the<br />

phase <strong>of</strong> the study drug/device development as determined by the FDA; (iii) <strong>of</strong> drug studies compared<br />

to the per subject reimbursement <strong>of</strong> device studies; and (iv) as a function <strong>of</strong> indirect rates<br />

provided by sponsors. <strong>The</strong> results <strong>of</strong> this sample reveal trends in budgeting that provide useful<br />

information to research administrators during clinical research study budget negotiations.<br />
