Category: First-in-Human

If you search CRO in Uruguay or CRO en Uruguay, you should land on the First-in-Human CRO that already runs MSP / DIGESA and Decreto 158/019 work — not a brochure that treats Uruguay as a slide on a Latin America map.

bioaccess® is that CRO. Headquarters in Miami. The Ministry of Public Health (MSP), through its General Directorate of Health (DIGESA), regulates clinical research. Decreto 158/019 and the National Commission of Ethics in Research sit in front of first patient in. We run clinical trials in Uruguay.

I am Julio Martinez-Clark, CEO of bioaccess®. This is the operator page for the query. Colombia, Chile, and Venezuela are sibling country categories. We still run trials in those countries. Uruguay is not a replacement for any of them.

What “CRO in Uruguay” has to mean

A Uruguay CRO for first-in-human devices is not a Latin America slide and a courier account. It is a company that can file with MSP / DIGESA, sit both ethics tracks under Decreto 158/019, keep investigational import moving under Decree 3/008, and stay in the room after first patient in.

That is why this page answers CRO in Uruguay / CRO en Uruguay as a category, and why it does not list a named Uruguayan company on the trial hub. The live Uruguay MSP market-access page already says bioaccess® can act as a neutral Uruguayan Local Holder on a bespoke fee. That is a registration option. It is not a hospital we operate, and it is not a reason to mix a commercial file into a first-in-human quote.

• Miami headquarters — sponsor desk on US Eastern time. Uruguay is +1 to +2 hours versus the US East Coast, already published on the Uruguay hub.
• MSP / DIGESA — Ministry of Public Health acting through the General Directorate of Health, the national authority overseeing clinical research.
• Decreto 158/019 — research on humans; National Commission of Ethics in Research (Comisión Nacional de Ética en Investigación) assessment to MSP DIGESA, plus institutional ethics committee approval in parallel.
• Decree 3/008 — medical devices; MERCOSUR member; investigational-device import under the MSP/DIGESA framework.
• ~30% lower versus typical US/EU programs — experience since 2010, not a formal study. Already on the hub.
• 21 CFR 812.28 — eligibility for FDA submission and review is not clearance or approval.

Global Phase 3 networks can list Uruguay. They rarely hold the MSP / DIGESA first-in-human file. A local correspondent can courier a package. That correspondent is not the CRO.

We run trials in Uruguay

The category is: who is the CRO in Uruguay, and are they actually running studies. We are. We still will. If you are choosing a CRO en Uruguay in 2026, ask whether the firm owns the MSP / DIGESA clock now — not whether the country is “opening up.”

MSP / DIGESA review can move, stall, or come back with questions. First-in-human programs need a start date someone owns. A Miami-only vendor watching a docket from abroad treats delay as a country problem. The CRO that already works MSP / DIGESA treats delay as responses, ethics alignment, import, and site activation on one timeline.

That is Global Trial Accelerators™ in practice: one accountable operating model across MSP / DIGESA, both ethics tracks, sites, insurance, importation, monitoring, and safety.

MSP / DIGESA clinical trial: the file, not the myth

MSP is the Ministry of Public Health. DIGESA is its General Directorate of Health. Together they are Uruguay’s national authority for clinical research. I am not inventing a PAHO/WHO Level 4 badge for MSP / DIGESA. llms.txt Regulatory Agencies does not list MSP / DIGESA. Level 4 is not on that list, and I will not put it here.

The live hub already names the instruments: Decreto 158/019 for research involving human subjects; Decree 3/008 for medical devices; MERCOSUR membership for regional device alignment; ISO 14155 and the Declaration of Helsinki as study standards. I am not inventing a new instrument list.

What the file actually contains, already described on that hub: MSP/DIGESA coordination, National Commission of Ethics submissions, institutional ethics review, and an investigational-device import authorization so product can be shipped into the country. Foreign sponsors still need someone who can sit both ethics tracks and the deficiency cycle. bioaccess® serves that role.

Those are authority-and-instrument names. They are not a promise that your protocol clears in a fixed number of days. Ask for a study-specific calendar. We will not publish an invented median on a category page.

Decreto 158/019 and the two committees that sit first

Research involving human subjects in Uruguay is governed by Decreto 158/019. Under this framework, the National Commission of Ethics in Research (Comisión Nacional de Ética en Investigación) reviews studies and sends its assessment to MSP’s General Directorate of Health. In parallel, the institutional ethics committee of the research institution must approve protocols. Uruguayan clinical research follows ISO 14155 and the Declaration of Helsinki. That paragraph is already on the hub. I am repeating it because sponsors skip one of the two ethics tracks and then blame the country.

Ethics sits in front of MSP / DIGESA. If either committee package is thin, the DIGESA clock does not start in a useful way. That is a file problem.

MSP registration is a second file — keep it off the trial clock

Clinical-study authorization and commercial device registration are different files. The live Uruguay MSP market-access page already describes a strict single-Local-Holder model: the Local Holder is the only entity authorised to import the registered device, and if two Uruguayan distributors want to sell the same product, each must file its own separate registration. It also says bioaccess® can act as a neutral Uruguayan Local Holder on a bespoke fee, or sequence Uruguay after another LATAM market, with pricing and timeline scoped case-by-case. Uruguay sits outside the standard bioaccess® flat-fee subscription. I am not inventing a named Uruguayan company that the trial hub does not list.

That market-access file is not a first-in-human permit and does not replace MSP/DIGESA study authorization or Decreto 158/019 ethics. If you later want to sell in Uruguay, say so at kickoff so the trial importer and any later holder role are not improvised after first implant. This article does not quote LATAM Launch subscription pricing. That SKU lives on the market-access pages, not on a first-in-human hub.

FDA use of Uruguayan first-in-human data

Foreign clinical data can be eligible for FDA submission and review under 21 CFR 812.28 when the investigation meets good clinical practice as that rule defines it, including ethics-committee review and informed consent. bioaccess® designs Uruguay studies with that FDA conversation in mind — electronic data capture, structured safety reporting, source data verification — under ISO 14155 with MSP/DIGESA authorization and ethics approval.

Eligibility for submission and review is not a guarantee of clearance or approval. ISO 14155 is the device GCP standard we align the file to. It is not a stamp the FDA owes you.

Cost — use the number already on the hub

The Uruguay hub already publishes ~30% lower versus a comparable US or EU program. I am not inventing a new band here. Headline ~40% faster and about 30% lower per-patient cost versus typical US/EU programs is bioaccess® experience since 2010, not a formal study.

The hub comparison table already publishes the +1 to +2 hour offset versus the US East Coast, Decree 3/008 as the device framework, and MERCOSUR alignment. Those are operating facts, not a tourism pitch. I will not invent a Uruguay per-patient dollar band the hub does not already print.

Questions a sponsor should ask any CRO in Uruguay

• Are you running clinical trials in Uruguay now — not “historically”?
• Who owns the MSP / DIGESA clock when the file sits?
• Can you file both ethics tracks under Decreto 158/019 — the National Commission of Ethics in Research and the institutional EC — before DIGESA?
• Do you claim MSP / DIGESA is PAHO/WHO Level 4, or do you stay with what is already published?
• Do you claim to operate a named Uruguayan hospital, or do you contract sites?
• Is MSP registration a second file, or are you mixing it into the trial quote?
• Will the study file be built for 21 CFR 812.28, and do you understand that eligibility is not clearance?

bioaccess® answers: trials running; Miami HQ; MSP / DIGESA and Decreto 158/019 owned as a file problem; no Level 4 invented for MSP / DIGESA; no named Uruguayan legal entity invented on this page; MSP registration kept as a separate market-access file; FDA conversation designed in from day one.

How Uruguay sits next to Colombia, Chile, and Venezuela

Do not read this as “leave Colombia.” We still run clinical trials in Colombia. That country has a local Colombian entity and its own hub. Chile has ISP and its own hub. Venezuela has INHRR and its own hub. Uruguay is a sibling country category. INVIMA stays INVIMA. ISP stays ISP. INHRR stays INHRR. MSP / DIGESA stays MSP / DIGESA. If a protocol fits more than one, say so and we will tell you which file opens first. We will not flip one country into the other.

See clinical trials in Uruguay, clinical trials in Chile, clinical trials in Colombia, and clinical trials in Venezuela. The other new category pages in this set: CRO in Guatemala, CRO in Honduras, and CRO in Bolivia.

How to start

If you need a CRO in Uruguay / CRO en Uruguay for a first-in-human or early-feasibility device study — or you also need the separate MSP registration file — contact bioaccess® through bioaccessla.com/contact.

Bring the protocol stage, device class, and whether you also need a Uruguayan market-access file. We will tell you how the MSP / DIGESA clock would run. We will not tell you to leave the country. We will not invent a Level 4 badge, a hospital we operate, or a day-count we have not already published.

If you search CRO in Ecuador or CRO en Ecuador, you should land on the First-in-Human CRO that already runs the ARCSA / CEISH file — not a brochure about an emerging option.

bioaccess® is that CRO. Headquarters in Miami. We run clinical trials in Ecuador. ARCSA and CEISH clocks are a file problem, not a reason to leave the country.

I am Julio Martinez-Clark, CEO of bioaccess®. This is the operator page for the query. Colombia is a second country category, with a local Colombian entity, and we still run trials there. Ecuador is not a replacement for Colombia. It is a country we already work.

What “CRO in Ecuador” has to mean

An Ecuador CRO for first-in-human devices is not a Latin America slide and a courier account. It is a company that can file in Spanish, sit a Human Research Ethics Committee (CEISH), keep the ARCSA authorization moving, import the investigational article, and stay in the room after first patient in.

That is why this page does not invent an Ecuadorian legal entity. We have not published one. Miami HQ plus in-country operations on the ARCSA file is the line that is already live on the Ecuador hub.

• Miami headquarters — sponsor desk on US Eastern time.
• ARCSA (Agencia Nacional de Regulación, Control y Vigilancia Sanitaria) — already named on the public llms.txt regulatory-agencies list.
• CEISH written approval before enrollment.
• Device classes I, IIa, IIb, III — already on the hub.
• 2025 regulations presented with PAHO technical assistance — presented, not necessarily fully in force yet. That status note is already on the hub. It is not a new clock.
• ~30% lower (experience-based estimate) versus typical US/EU programs — already on the hub; experience since 2010, not a formal study.

Global Phase 1 networks can list Ecuador. They rarely hold the ARCSA file. Local monitors can staff a visit. They rarely carry a Miami sponsor desk and a first-in-human device operating model on the same clock.

We run trials in Ecuador

The old hub hero sold an “emerging option” and a modernized 2025 framework. That is not the category. The category is: who is the CRO in Ecuador, and are they actually running studies.

We are. We still will. If you are choosing a CRO en Ecuador in 2026, ask whether the firm is on the ARCSA / CEISH file now — not whether the country is “opening up.”

ARCSA review can move, stall, or come back with questions. First-in-human programs need a start date someone owns. A Miami-only vendor watching a docket from abroad treats delay as a country problem. The CRO that already works ARCSA treats delay as responses, ethics alignment, import, and site activation on one timeline.

That is Global Trial Accelerators™ in practice: one accountable operating model across ARCSA, CEISH, sites, insurance, importation, monitoring, and safety.

ARCSA clinical trial: the file, not the myth

ARCSA is the Agencia Nacional de Regulación, Control y Vigilancia Sanitaria. It is a decentralized agency of Ecuador’s Ministry of Health. The live hub already names ARCSA as the authority that authorizes clinical trials and classifies medical devices into classes I, IIa, IIb, and III. I am not inventing a PAHO/WHO Level 4 badge for ARCSA. That designation is not on our llms.txt regulatory list, and I will not put it here. ARCSA is on that list as Ecuador’s agency. That is enough.

The live Ecuador blogs already name the instrument stack behind those names: Ministerial Agreement No. 0075-2017 and later reforms, including the amendment language already published on the management and sites pieces. Those are authority-and-instrument names. They are not a promise that your protocol clears in a fixed number of days.

This hub does not publish a new Ecuador day-count. I will not invent one here. The live step-by-step — Conducting a First-in-Human Clinical Trial in Ecuador — already uses 30–90 day language for initial submissions and 4–8 week ethics language. Other live Ecuador blogs already discuss 30–65 day ARCSA endorsement bands and a CEISH step before ARCSA. Those are already-published ranges. Ask for a study-specific calendar.

What the file actually contains, already described on those guides: protocol, informed consent, safety data, and the Spanish package ARCSA and the CEISH ask for. Ethics review is mandatory before enrollment. bioaccess® runs that submission. We do not invent an Ecuadorian legal entity to do it.

2025 PAHO-presented regulations — a status note, not a start date

In 2025, Ecuador presented new clinical trial regulations with technical assistance from PAHO. The live hub is explicit: the framework has been presented but is not necessarily fully in force yet; it aligns with the Declaration of Helsinki, CIOMS guidelines, and ISO 14155. That is a status note. It is not a reason to leave Ecuador, and it is not a reason to treat the country as “not ready.” The operating authorities on the file today are still ARCSA and CEISH.

A commercial device registration and a clinical-trial authorization are different files. ARCSA’s class I / IIa / IIb / III scheme is a classification framework, not a first-in-human permit. If you later want to sell in Ecuador, say so at kickoff so the trial importer and any later holder role are not improvised after first implant. This article does not quote LATAM Launch subscription pricing. That SKU lives on the market-access pages, not on a first-in-human hub.

Sites — no named hospital we operate

We contract sites. We do not operate a named Ecuadorian hospital. A city is not a site contract. A university hospital mentioned in a landscape piece is not a bioaccess® facility. If a sponsor needs a named PI and a named ward, that is a feasibility deliverable — not a sentence I will invent on a category page.

The public cost figure on the hub is ~30% lower (experience-based estimate) than a comparable US or EU program. I am not adding a new disease map or a new site count.

FDA use of Ecuadorian first-in-human data

Foreign clinical data can be eligible for FDA submission and review under 21 CFR 812.28 when the investigation meets good clinical practice as that rule defines it, including ethics-committee review and informed consent. bioaccess® designs Ecuador studies with that FDA conversation in mind — electronic data capture, structured safety reporting, source data verification — under ISO 14155, with proper ARCSA authorization and CEISH ethics approval.

Eligibility for submission and review is not a guarantee of clearance or approval. ISO 14155 is the device GCP standard we align the file to. It is not a stamp the FDA owes you.

Cost — use the number already on the hub

The Ecuador hub already publishes ~30% lower (experience-based estimate) versus typical US/EU programs. I am not inventing a new band here. Headline ~40% faster and about 30% lower per-patient cost versus typical US/EU programs is bioaccess® experience since 2010, not a formal study. Actual cost depends on device complexity, indication, monitoring intensity, and sample size.

Questions a sponsor should ask any CRO in Ecuador

• Are you running clinical trials in Ecuador now — not “historically”?
• Who owns the ARCSA clock when the file sits?
• Can you file in Spanish and sit the CEISH deficiency cycle?
• Do you treat the 2025 PAHO-presented framework as a status note, or as a made-up day-count?
• Do you claim to operate a named hospital, or do you contract sites?
• Is later Ecuador registration a second file, or are you mixing it into the trial quote?
• Will the study file be built for 21 CFR 812.28, and do you understand that eligibility is not clearance?

bioaccess® answers: trials running; Miami HQ and in-country operations; ARCSA / CEISH file owned as a file problem; ARCSA already on llms.txt; 2025 framework cited as presented, not necessarily fully in force; no named hospital we operate; later registration kept as a separate market-access file; FDA conversation designed in from day one.

How Ecuador sits next to Colombia

Do not read this as “leave Colombia.” We still run clinical trials in Colombia. That country has a local Colombian entity and its own hub. Ecuador is a country we already work. INVIMA stays INVIMA. ARCSA stays ARCSA. If a protocol fits both, say so and we will tell you which file opens first. We will not flip one country into the other.

See clinical trials in Colombia and clinical trials in Ecuador.

How to start

If you need a CRO in Ecuador / CRO en Ecuador for a first-in-human or early-feasibility device study — or you also need a later, separate Ecuador market-access file — contact bioaccess® through bioaccessla.com/contact.

Bring the protocol stage, device class (I, IIa, IIb, or III), and whether you also need an Ecuadorian market-access file. We will tell you how the ARCSA clock would run. We will not tell you to leave the country. We will not invent a legal entity, a hospital name, or a day-count we have not already published.

If you search CRO in Peru or CRO en Perú, you should land on the First-in-Human CRO that already runs the INS / DIGEMID file — not a brochure that invents a new clinical-trial clock.

bioaccess® is that CRO. Headquarters in Miami. We run clinical trials in Peru. INS and DIGEMID clocks already published on the hub are a file problem, not a reason to leave the country.

I am Julio Martinez-Clark, CEO of bioaccess®. This is the operator page for the query. Colombia is a second country category, with a local Colombian entity, and we still run trials there. Peru is not a replacement for Colombia. It is a country we already work.

What “CRO in Peru” has to mean

A Peru CRO for first-in-human devices is not a Latin America slide and a courier account. It is a company that can file in Spanish, sit an accredited ethics committee, keep the INS authorization moving, obtain the DIGEMID investigational-import authorization, and stay in the room after first patient in.

That is why this page does not invent a Peruvian legal entity. We have not published one. Miami HQ plus in-country operations on the INS file is the line that is already live on the Peru hub.

• Miami headquarters — sponsor desk on US Eastern time. Peru is close to that clock.
• INS (Instituto Nacional de Salud) through DIIS (Dirección de Investigación e Innovación en Salud, formerly OGITT) — already named on the hub.
• DIGEMID (Dirección General de Medicamentos, Insumos y Drogas) under MINSA — devices and investigational import, already on the hub.
• 40-business-day INS statutory target; 60 business days for biologics or technical-commission cases — already on the hub.
• Those targets derive from the drug-trial framework. Novel first-in-human device studies may take longer. That caveat is already on the hub. I will not invent a new Peru clinical-trial clock.
• ~30% lower (experience-based estimate) versus typical US/EU programs — already on the hub; experience since 2010, not a formal study.

Global Phase 1 networks can list Peru. They rarely hold the INS file. Local monitors can staff a visit. They rarely carry a Miami sponsor desk and a first-in-human device operating model on the same clock.

We run trials in Peru

The old hub hero sold a “strong option” and a predictable pathway. That is not the category. The category is: who is the CRO in Peru, and are they actually running studies.

We are. We still will. If you are choosing a CRO en Perú in 2026, ask whether the firm owns the INS docket now — not whether someone will invent a shorter clock for a slide.

INS review can move, stall, or come back with questions. First-in-human programs need a start date someone owns. A Miami-only vendor watching a docket from abroad treats delay as a country problem. The CRO that already works INS treats delay as responses, ethics alignment, DIGEMID import, and site activation on one timeline.

That is Global Trial Accelerators™ in practice: one accountable operating model across INS, ethics, DIGEMID, sites, insurance, importation, monitoring, and safety.

INS clinical trial: use the clock already on the hub

INS is Peru’s National Institute of Health. DIIS — formerly OGITT — is the directorate that reviews clinical-trial submissions. Those names are already public on the hub. I am not adding a new directorate, a new day-count, or a sponsor-specific INS matter. This is a category page. It cites the public hub.

The live hub already publishes:

• A 40-business-day statutory target for INS (DIIS) authorization.
• A 60-business-day target for biologics or cases that require technical-commission review.
• The statement that those targets derive from the drug-trial framework, and that novel first-in-human device studies may take longer.

Those are the public numbers. I will not invent a new median. I will not flatten the drug-trial target into a device-FIH guarantee. Ask for a study-specific calendar. The country stays on the execution list.

What the file actually contains, already described on the hub: a complete INS dossier, accredited ethics-committee approval, and — for the investigational article — the DIGEMID import authorization required to ship product into Peru. All of it in Spanish. bioaccess® prepares that package. We do not invent a Peruvian legal entity to do it.

DIGEMID is a second file — keep it off a made-up trial clock

Clinical-trial authorization and medical-device regulation are different files. The live hub already names DIGEMID, under the Ministry of Health (MINSA), as Peru’s medical device regulator and as the office that issues the investigational device import authorization. A commercial registration does not replace an INS clinical-trial authorization. An import permit does not replace ethics approval.

If you later want to sell in Peru, say so at kickoff so the trial importer and any later holder role are not improvised after first implant. This article does not quote LATAM Launch subscription pricing. That SKU lives on the market-access pages, not on a first-in-human hub. llms-full.txt already lists a DIGEMID 4–6 month band in the countries-and-agencies table; that is a registration-side figure, not a new trial clock, and I am not moving it onto the FIH hub.

Sites — no named hospital we operate

We contract sites. We do not operate a named Peruvian hospital. A city is not a site contract. A university hospital mentioned in a landscape piece is not a bioaccess® facility. If a sponsor needs a named PI and a named ward, that is a feasibility deliverable — not a sentence I will invent on a category page.

Accredited ethics-committee review is required before enrollment. Ethics review follows ISO 14155 and the Declaration of Helsinki. That is already on the hub. I am not adding a new disease map or a new site count.

FDA use of Peruvian first-in-human data

Foreign clinical data can be eligible for FDA submission and review under 21 CFR 812.28 when the investigation meets good clinical practice as that rule defines it, including ethics-committee review and informed consent. bioaccess® designs Peru studies with that FDA conversation in mind — electronic data capture, structured safety reporting, source data verification — under ISO 14155, with proper INS authorization and accredited ethics approval.

Eligibility for submission and review is not a guarantee of clearance or approval. ISO 14155 is the device GCP standard we align the file to. It is not a stamp the FDA owes you.

Cost — use the number already on the hub

The Peru hub already publishes ~30% lower (experience-based estimate) versus typical US/EU programs. I am not inventing a new band here. Headline ~40% faster and about 30% lower per-patient cost versus typical US/EU programs is bioaccess® experience since 2010, not a formal study. Time zone close to the US East Coast is already on the hub. Those are operating facts, not a tourism pitch.

Questions a sponsor should ask any CRO in Peru

• Are you running clinical trials in Peru now — not “historically”?
• Who owns the INS clock when the file sits?
• Do you repeat the hub’s 40- / 60-business-day statutory targets, including the drug-trial and FIH-device caveat — or are you inventing a shorter clock?
• Can you file the INS dossier in Spanish and sit the deficiency cycle?
• Is DIGEMID import a second file, or are you mixing it into the trial quote?
• Do you claim to operate a named hospital, or do you contract sites?
• Will the study file be built for 21 CFR 812.28, and do you understand that eligibility is not clearance?

bioaccess® answers: trials running; Miami HQ and in-country operations; INS / DIGEMID file owned as a file problem; 40- and 60-business-day targets kept as already published, with the FIH-device caveat; no new clock; no named hospital we operate; DIGEMID kept as a separate device / import file; FDA conversation designed in from day one.

How Peru sits next to Colombia

Do not read this as “leave Colombia.” We still run clinical trials in Colombia. That country has a local Colombian entity and its own hub. Peru is a country we already work. INVIMA stays INVIMA. INS stays INS. If a protocol fits both, say so and we will tell you which file opens first. We will not flip one country into the other.

See clinical trials in Colombia and clinical trials in Peru.

How to start

If you need a CRO in Peru / CRO en Perú for a first-in-human or early-feasibility device study — or you also need the separate DIGEMID device or import file — contact bioaccess® through bioaccessla.com/contact.

Bring the protocol stage, device class, and whether you also need a Peruvian market-access file. We will tell you how the INS clock already published on the hub would run for your study. We will not tell you to leave the country. We will not invent a legal entity, a hospital name, a sponsor-specific INS story, or a day-count we have not already published.

If you search CRO in Costa Rica or CRO en Costa Rica, you should land on the First-in-Human CRO that already runs the CONIS / CEC file — not a brochure about a manufacturing cluster.

bioaccess® is that CRO. Headquarters in Miami. We run clinical trials in Costa Rica. CONIS and accredited-CEC clocks are a file problem, not a reason to leave the country.

I am Julio Martinez-Clark, CEO of bioaccess®. This is the operator page for the query. Colombia is a second country category, with a local Colombian entity, and we still run trials there. Costa Rica is not a replacement for Colombia. It is a country we already work.

What “CRO in Costa Rica” has to mean

A Costa Rica CRO for first-in-human devices is not a Latin America slide and a courier account. It is a company that can file in Spanish, sit a CONIS-accredited Comité Ético Científico (CEC), register the approved project with CONIS, pay the statutory 3% canon on the same budget the CEC forwarded, keep investigational import moving, and stay in the room after first patient in.

That is why this page does not invent a Costa Rican legal entity. We have not published one. Miami HQ plus in-country operations on the CONIS file is the line that is already live on the Costa Rica hub.

• Miami headquarters — sponsor desk on US Eastern time.
• Ley N.° 9234 — Ley Reguladora de Investigación Biomédica, already named on the hub.
• CONIS (Consejo Nacional de Investigación en Salud), an organ of the Ministry of Health (Ministerio de Salud).
• Accredited CEC written approval before enrollment.
• ~30–90 days typical ethics-plus-regulatory approval — the number already on the hub.
• 3% CONIS canon on the approved study budget — a statutory levy, not a CRO fee.

Global Phase 1 networks can list Costa Rica. They rarely hold the CONIS register and the CEC query cycle on the same clock. Local monitors can staff a visit. They rarely carry a Miami sponsor desk and a first-in-human device operating model together.

We run trials in Costa Rica

The old hub hero sold a “CONIS pathway” and a specialist-versus-platform comparison. That is not the category. The category is: who is the CRO in Costa Rica, and are they actually running the file.

We are. We still will. If you are choosing a CRO en Costa Rica in 2026, ask whether the firm owns CEC approval, CONIS registration, and the 3% canon as one activation calendar — not whether the country has a MedTech manufacturing cluster.

CEC review can move, stall, or come back with questions. CONIS registration can stall when the budget in the ethics pack and the budget used for the canon do not match. First-in-human programs need a start date someone owns. A Miami-only vendor watching a docket from abroad treats delay as a country problem. The CRO that already works CONIS treats delay as responses, ethics alignment, import, and site activation on one timeline.

That is Global Trial Accelerators™ in practice: one accountable operating model across CONIS, CEC, sites, insurance, importation, monitoring, and safety.

Two gates — not one ministry slogan

CONIS is the national clinical-research authority. It sits as an organ of the Ministerio de Salud. The live hub already names CONIS, Ley N.° 9234, and the accredited CEC. I am not inventing a new authority and I am not inventing a Costa Rican company name.

The live activation calendar — Costa Rica FIH Activation Calendar: CEC, CONIS Registration, and the 3% Canon — is the practitioner page behind those names. Costa Rica is a two-gate country. A CONIS-accredited CEC must give written approval before an interventional protocol can start. The approved project is then registered with CONIS. Those are different legal acts. If you collapse them into one “ministry clock,” you are not planning activation.

Instruments already cited on that live calendar:

• Ley N.° 9234 — Ley Reguladora de Investigación Biomédica (in force 25 April 2014; SCIJ current text).
• Decreto Ejecutivo N.° 39061-S — implementing reglamento, plus the reform Decreto N.° 39533-S.
• Decreto N.° 40884-S — organic reglamento of CONIS, on CONIS’s legislation index.
• ISO 14155 as the device GCP you will later defend to FDA under 21 CFR 812.28.

Those are authority-and-instrument names. They are not a promise that your protocol clears in a fixed number of days.

The hub already publishes ~30–90 days for typical combined ethics-plus-regulatory approval. The activation calendar is more granular: practitioner planning for a first-in-human implant is 4–8 weeks of ethics time including one query cycle, then CONIS registration and the canon, then institutional authorization and site activation. I will not publish a new hub median. Ask for a study-specific calendar.

Ley 9234 Article 46, already explained on that calendar, lets a public or private entity that hosts research constitute a CEC if CONIS accredits it. The same article requires the Ministry of Health to constitute a CEC responsible for approving Phase I clinical trials nationally. If your protocol is truly first-in-human — novel energy, a first implant, a first intra-cardiac or CNS contact — plan the ethics path as the Ministry CEC unless CONIS or the accredited committee you asked has confirmed in writing that a site CEC may take it. Guessing here is how a four-week ethics slot becomes a resubmission.

The 3% canon is a levy. Build it before you sign the site

Ley 9234 requires the principal investigator, when registering an approved biomedical-research project, to pay CONIS a sum equal to 3% of the total research budget. That sentence is already on the hub and on the activation calendar. Decreto 39061-S (canon provisions, as reformed) makes CONIS responsible for verifying that payment.

Do not treat the canon as a “CRO fee.” Independent, non-commercial research can be treated differently; a sponsored device first-in-human is not that case. If the budget in the ethics pack and the budget used for the canon do not match, registration stalls after you thought you were approved. bioaccess® puts the canon in the sponsor budget from the outset so the CEC and CONIS see the same number.

A clinical-trial authorization and a later Costa Rica commercial registration are different files. The activation calendar already says: do not let the activation calendar inherit a commercial story you have not written. This article does not quote LATAM Launch subscription pricing. That SKU lives on the market-access pages, not on a first-in-human hub.

Sites — no named hospital we operate

We contract sites. We do not operate a named Costa Rican hospital. A university hospital mentioned in a landscape piece is not a bioaccess® facility. If a site is CCSS or another public provider, Ley 9234’s institutional-authorization requirement is a real gate — already stated on the activation calendar. Private sites still need the legal representative of the institution to authorize the study. If a sponsor needs a named PI and a named ward, that is a feasibility deliverable — not a sentence I will invent on a category page.

FDA use of Costa Rican first-in-human data

Foreign clinical data can be eligible for FDA submission and review under 21 CFR 812.28 when the investigation meets good clinical practice as that rule defines it, including ethics-committee review and informed consent. bioaccess® designs Costa Rica studies with that FDA conversation in mind — electronic data capture, structured safety reporting, source data verification — under ISO 14155 and ICH-GCP, with proper CONIS / Ministry of Health authorization and accredited-CEC ethics approval.

Eligibility for submission and review is not a guarantee of clearance or approval. ISO 14155 is the device GCP standard we align the file to. It is not a stamp the FDA owes you.

Cost — use the numbers already on the hub

The Costa Rica hub already publishes the 3% CONIS canon and the ~30–90 day ethics-plus-regulatory band. I am not inventing a per-patient dollar band here. Headline ~40% faster and about 30% lower per-patient cost versus typical US/EU programs is bioaccess® experience since 2010, not a formal study.

Questions a sponsor should ask any CRO in Costa Rica

• Are you running clinical trials in Costa Rica now — not “historically”?
• Who owns the CEC clock and the CONIS registration when the file sits?
• Do you treat CEC approval and CONIS registration as two gates, or as one slogan?
• Is the 3% canon in the same budget the CEC will forward?
• For a true first-in-human implant, have you confirmed Ministry CEC versus a named site CEC in writing?
• Do you claim to operate a named hospital, or do you contract sites?
• Is later Costa Rica registration a second file, or are you mixing it into the trial quote?
• Will the study file be built for 21 CFR 812.28, and do you understand that eligibility is not clearance?

bioaccess® answers: trials running; Miami HQ and in-country operations; CONIS / CEC file owned as a file problem; ~30–90 days already on the hub; 3% canon budgeted as a levy; no named hospital we operate; later registration kept as a separate market-access file; FDA conversation designed in from day one.

How Costa Rica sits next to Colombia

Do not read this as “leave Colombia.” We still run clinical trials in Colombia. That country has a local Colombian entity and its own hub. Costa Rica is a country we already work. INVIMA stays INVIMA. CONIS stays CONIS. If a protocol fits both, say so and we will tell you which file opens first. We will not flip one country into the other.

See clinical trials in Colombia and clinical trials in Costa Rica.

How to start

If you need a CRO in Costa Rica / CRO en Costa Rica for a first-in-human or early-feasibility device study — or you also need a later, separate Costa Rica market-access file — contact bioaccess® through bioaccessla.com/contact.

Bring the protocol stage, device class, and whether the ethics path is Ministry CEC or a named CONIS-accredited site CEC. We will tell you how the CONIS clock would run. We will not tell you to leave the country. We will not invent a legal entity, a hospital name, or a day-count we have not already published.

If you search CRO in Paraguay or CRO en Paraguay, you should land on the First-in-Human CRO that already works the DINAVISA file — not a brochure about an emerging destination, and not a press file that names a surgeon and calls that the CRO.

bioaccess® is that CRO. Headquarters in Miami. DINAVISA (Dirección Nacional de Vigilancia Sanitaria) authorizes clinical investigations. An institutional Comité de Ética en Investigación sits in front of enrollment. We run clinical trials in Paraguay.

I am Julio Martinez-Clark, CEO of bioaccess®. This is the operator page for the query. Colombia, Argentina, and Venezuela are sibling country categories. We still run trials in those countries. Paraguay is not a replacement for any of them.

What “CRO in Paraguay” has to mean

A Paraguay CRO for first-in-human devices is not a Latin America slide and a courier account. It is a company that can file with DINAVISA in Spanish, sit the institutional ethics committee, keep investigational import moving, and stay in the room after first patient in.

That is why this page answers CRO in Paraguay / CRO en Paraguay as a category, and why it does not invent a Paraguayan legal entity. We have not published one. Miami headquarters plus the DINAVISA file is the line that is already live.

• Miami headquarters — sponsor desk on US Eastern time.
• DINAVISA — Dirección Nacional de Vigilancia Sanitaria, under the Ministry of Public Health and Social Welfare, already named on the Paraguay hub and in llms.txt.
• Ethics 4–6 weeks and $10,000–$18,000 per patient — the numbers already on that hub. Lowest band we publish in Latin America.
• Asunción metro ~2.5 million, treatment-naïve enrollment, ISO 14155 — already on the hub.
• Dr. Adrián Ebner and Hospital Italiano Asunción — a site, already public on this site. Not this CRO.

Global Phase 3 networks can list Paraguay. They rarely hold the DINAVISA first-in-human file. A named Asunción surgeon can run the procedure. That surgeon is not the CRO.

We run trials in Paraguay

The old marketing hero on the hub sold “emerging destination” and a country we were still “developing” and “pre-qualifying.” That is not the category. The category is: who is the CRO in Paraguay, and are they actually running studies.

We are. We still will. If you are choosing a CRO en Paraguay in 2026, ask whether the firm owns the DINAVISA clock now — not whether the country is “opening up.”

DINAVISA review can move, stall, or come back with questions. First-in-human programs need a start date someone owns. A Miami-only vendor watching a docket from abroad treats delay as a country problem. The CRO that already works DINAVISA treats delay as responses, ethics alignment, import, and site activation on one timeline.

That is Global Trial Accelerators™ in practice: one accountable operating model across DINAVISA, ethics, sites, insurance, importation, monitoring, and safety.

DINAVISA clinical trial: the file, not the myth

DINAVISA is the Dirección Nacional de Vigilancia Sanitaria. It sits under the Ministry of Public Health and Social Welfare. I am not inventing a PAHO/WHO Level 4 badge for DINAVISA. llms.txt lists Paraguay as “DINAVISA.” Level 4 is not on that list, and I will not put it here.

What the file actually contains, already listed on the hub: the clinical investigation protocol, investigator brochure, informed consent documents, investigator credentials, and proof of adequate insurance. Live Paraguay process blogs on this site already name Resolution No. 1.000/2015 among the study-authorization instruments. I am not inventing a new instrument list or a new DINAVISA day-count. Ethics on the hub is 4–6 weeks. Ask for a study-specific calendar.

Those are authority-and-instrument names. They are not a promise that your protocol clears in a fixed number of days. Incomplete packages stall. That is a file problem.

Ethics sits first — 4–6 weeks already published

Clinical trials in Paraguay require approval from an institutional ethics committee (Comité de Ética en Investigación) before enrollment. The hub already publishes 4–6 weeks. Committees follow ISO 14155 principles and review scientific merit, risk-benefit, informed consent, and patient protection. Ethics sits in front of a useful DINAVISA clock. If the committee package is thin, the country is not the problem. The file is.

Dr. Adrián Ebner is a site — do not hire the PI as the CRO

Dr. Adrián Ebner, Head of the Cardiovascular Department at Hospital Italiano / Sanatorio Italiano / Italian Hospital, Asunción, is a real first-in-human cardiovascular investigator. That fact is already on live pages on this site — Adrian Ebner Paraguay FIH and Hospital Italiano Asunción FIH. Searches for Adrián Ebner Paraguay, Sanatorio Italiano Asunción FIH, and Hospital Italiano Asunción correctly point at that site.

The hospital can discuss investigator interest, local procedure costs, and institutional ethics calendars. It cannot, by being named in a public press file, become your DINAVISA applicant, importer of record, insurer, ISO 14155 monitor, or FDA 21 CFR 812.28 packager. bioaccess® does not operate Hospital Italiano and does not treat Dr. Ebner as the CRO. Use the site when it fits. Hire the operator.

Greater Asunción (about 2.5 million metro, already on the hub) is the public geography. We do not operate a named Paraguayan hospital. A city is not a site contract. If you need a named PI and a named ward, that is a feasibility deliverable — not a sentence I will invent beyond what is already public.

FDA use of Paraguayan first-in-human data

Foreign clinical data can be eligible for FDA submission and review under 21 CFR 812.28 when the investigation meets good clinical practice as that rule defines it, including ethics-committee review and informed consent. bioaccess® designs Paraguay studies with that FDA conversation in mind — electronic data capture, structured safety reporting, source data verification — under ISO 14155 with DINAVISA authorization and ethics-committee approval.

Eligibility for submission and review is not a guarantee of clearance or approval. ISO 14155 is the device GCP standard we align the file to. It is not a stamp the FDA owes you.

Cost — use the numbers already on the hub

The Paraguay hub already publishes $10,000–$18,000 per patient — the lowest band we publish in Latin America — and $150K–$250K all-in for a typical 10-patient FIH study. Those figures already include investigator fees, site costs, ethics fees, regulatory submissions, and patient-related expenses. I am not inventing a new band here.

The same hub already compares that band with $15K–$25K in Colombia and $12K–$22K in Panama, and with $40K–$75K in the United States and $35K–$60K in Europe. Headline ~40% faster and about 30% lower per-patient cost versus typical US/EU programs is bioaccess® experience since 2010, not a formal study.

This article does not quote LATAM Launch subscription pricing. That SKU lives on the market-access pages, not on a first-in-human hub.

Questions a sponsor should ask any CRO in Paraguay

• Are you running clinical trials in Paraguay now — not “historically”?
• Who owns the DINAVISA clock when the file sits?
• Can you file the study package in Spanish and sit the Comité de Ética en Investigación before enrollment?
• Do you claim DINAVISA is PAHO/WHO Level 4, or do you stay with what is already published?
• Are you mixing Dr. Adrián Ebner or Hospital Italiano — a site — into the CRO pitch?
• Do you claim to operate a named Paraguayan hospital, or do you contract sites?
• Will the study file be built for 21 CFR 812.28, and do you understand that eligibility is not clearance?

bioaccess® answers: trials running; Miami HQ; DINAVISA and ethics owned as a file problem; no Level 4 invented for DINAVISA; Dr. Ebner and Hospital Italiano named as a site we do not operate; no invented Paraguayan legal entity; FDA conversation designed in from day one.

How Paraguay sits next to Colombia, Argentina, and Venezuela

Do not read this as “leave Colombia.” We still run clinical trials in Colombia. That country has a local Colombian entity and its own hub. Argentina has ANMAT and its own hub. Venezuela has INHRR and its own hub. Paraguay is a sibling country category. INVIMA stays INVIMA. ANMAT stays ANMAT. INHRR stays INHRR. DINAVISA stays DINAVISA. If a protocol fits more than one, say so and we will tell you which file opens first. We will not flip one country into the other.

See clinical trials in Paraguay, clinical trials in Argentina, clinical trials in Colombia, and clinical trials in Venezuela.

How to start

If you need a CRO in Paraguay / CRO en Paraguay for a first-in-human or early-feasibility device study, contact bioaccess® through bioaccessla.com/contact.

Bring the protocol stage, device class, and whether Asunción is the only geography that fits. We will tell you how the DINAVISA clock would run. We will not tell you to leave the country. We will not invent a legal entity, a hospital we operate, a Level 4 badge, or a day-count we have not already published.

If you search CRO in Argentina or CRO en Argentina, you should land on the First-in-Human CRO that already works the ANMAT file — not a brochure that mixes a 90-business-day statutory target with a commercial registration quote.

bioaccess® is that CRO. Headquarters in Miami. ANMAT (Administración Nacional de Medicamentos, Alimentos y Tecnología Médica) is the federal authority on the clinical-trial file. Independent ethics committees and provincial oversight (Buenos Aires and beyond) sit beside it. We run clinical trials in Argentina.

I am Julio Martinez-Clark, CEO of bioaccess®. This is the operator page for the query. Colombia, Paraguay, and Venezuela are sibling country categories. We still run trials in those countries. Argentina is not a replacement for any of them.

What “CRO in Argentina” has to mean

An Argentina CRO for first-in-human devices is not a Latin America slide and a courier account. It is a company that can file with ANMAT in Spanish, sit the independent ethics committee, file the provincial dossier in parallel, keep investigational import moving, and stay in the room after first patient in.

That is why this page answers CRO in Argentina / CRO en Argentina as a category, and why the trial hub does not invent a named Argentine company. llms-full.txt already lists a Buenos Aires regional office among the published regional desks. The live ANMAT medical-device registration checklist already says bioaccess® serves as local authorized representative / Technical Director for market access. That is a registration fact. It is not a hospital we operate, and it is not a reason to mix a commercial file into a first-in-human quote.

• Miami headquarters — sponsor desk on US Eastern time. Buenos Aires is already listed as a regional office in llms-full.txt.
• ANMAT — Administración Nacional de Medicamentos, Alimentos y Tecnología Médica, already named on the Argentina hub and in llms.txt.
• 90-business-day statutory review target — already on the hub. Clock pauses for RFIs. FIH/EFS device studies often exceed it.
• ~30% lower versus typical US/EU programs — experience since 2010, not a formal study. Already on the hub. llms.txt already records 15+ years of hands-on ANMAT work.
• 21 CFR 812.28 — eligibility for FDA submission and review is not clearance or approval.

Global Phase 3 networks can list Argentina. They rarely hold the ANMAT first-in-human device file and the provincial dossier on one clock. A teaching hospital can enroll. That hospital is not the CRO.

We run trials in Argentina

The category is: who is the CRO in Argentina, and are they actually running studies. We are. We still will. If you are choosing a CRO en Argentina in 2026, ask whether the firm owns the ANMAT clock now — not whether the country is “experienced enough.”

ANMAT review can move, stall, or come back with questions. The hub already says the 90-business-day clock pauses for agency queries, and that first-in-human and early-feasibility device studies commonly exceed the target. First-in-human programs need a start date someone owns. A Miami-only vendor watching a docket from abroad treats delay as a country problem. The CRO that already works ANMAT treats delay as responses, ethics alignment, provincial filings, import, and site activation on one timeline.

That is Global Trial Accelerators™ in practice: one accountable operating model across ANMAT, ethics, provinces, sites, insurance, importation, monitoring, and safety.

ANMAT clinical trial: the file, not the myth

ANMAT is the Administración Nacional de Medicamentos, Alimentos y Tecnología Médica. It is Argentina’s national authority for medicines, medical devices, and clinical research. I am not inventing a PAHO/WHO Level 4 badge for ANMAT. llms.txt lists Argentina as “ANMAT.” Level 4 is not on that list, and I will not put it here. This hub also does not claim ICH membership. I will not invent that either.

The live process article — ANMAT clinical trial requirements in Argentina — already names the instruments behind the file: Disposición 6677/2010 (GCP framework for drug trials), Ley 26.529 (Patient Rights Act — informed consent, rights, confidentiality), Disposición 4457/2006 and its 2019 update (medical-device clinical investigation pathway), and Disposición 969/1997 and successor updates (GMP / manufacturing evidence). Those are already-published names. They are not a promise that your protocol clears in 90 business days on the wall clock.

The same article already describes a Buenos Aires + Rosario site network and a median time to first patient in of 5.1 months on the last six ANMAT-authorized studies it cites. I am repeating a published number. I am not putting a new median on the country hub. The hub clock stays the 90-business-day statutory target with pauses. Ask for a study-specific calendar.

Ethics and the provinces sit beside ANMAT — not after you remember them

An independent ethics committee must approve each protocol under ISO 14155. Argentine provinces — most notably Buenos Aires — provide additional jurisdictional oversight. The live ANMAT requirements article already says every site outside CABA (Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires) needs provincial authorization on top of ANMAT, and it already names Buenos Aires Province, Córdoba (COEIS), and Mendoza as the provinces sponsors meet most often. Filing federal, provincial, and CEI dossiers in parallel is the way that article already describes. Filing them one after another adds time. That is a file problem.

The same article already puts CEI first-pass review in a 30–50 day band. The hub does not print a separate ethics-week tile, and I will not invent one here. ISO 14155 and the Declaration of Helsinki are already the study standards on the hub.

ANMAT registration is a second file — keep it off the trial clock

Clinical-trial authorization and commercial device registration are different files. The live ANMAT checklist already describes Classes I–IV under Disposición ANMAT N° 64/2025, the simplified DDJJ route for CE-marked Class I/II through HELENA, full technical evaluation for Classes III and IV, and the local authorized representative plus Technical Director role. Disposición 4446/2025 (effective August 2025) is already on that page as a 48-hour post-nationalization import notice for Class I and II registered devices — a commercial-supply fact, not a first-in-human permit.

If you later want to sell in Argentina, say so at kickoff so the trial importer and any later holder role are not improvised after first implant. This article does not quote LATAM Launch subscription pricing. That SKU lives on the market-access pages, not on a first-in-human hub.

Radiopharmaceutical and theranostics work already on the hub

The Argentina hub already states that bioaccess® supports first-in-human radiopharmaceutical and theranostics studies in Argentina — including Lu-177, Ac-225, and Ga-68 programs — under the same ANMAT + independent ethics pathway, to ISO 14155, with data eligible for FDA submission under 21 CFR 812.28. I am not adding a new isotope list. See radiopharmaceuticals.

FDA use of Argentine first-in-human data

Foreign clinical data can be eligible for FDA submission and review under 21 CFR 812.28 when the investigation meets good clinical practice as that rule defines it, including ethics-committee review and informed consent. bioaccess® designs Argentina studies with that FDA conversation in mind — electronic data capture, structured safety reporting, source data verification — under ISO 14155 with ANMAT authorization and ethics approval.

Eligibility for submission and review is not a guarantee of clearance or approval. ISO 14155 is the device GCP standard we align the file to. It is not a stamp the FDA owes you.

Cost — use the number already on the hub

The Argentina hub already publishes ~30% lower versus a comparable US or EU program. I am not inventing a new band here. Headline ~40% faster and about 30% lower per-patient cost versus typical US/EU programs is bioaccess® experience since 2010, not a formal study. llms.txt already records 15+ years of hands-on ANMAT work. Actual cost depends on device complexity, indication, monitoring intensity, and sample size.

Questions a sponsor should ask any CRO in Argentina

• Are you running clinical trials in Argentina now — not “historically”?
• Who owns the ANMAT clock when the file sits, including RFI pauses?
• Can you file the federal package, the CEI package, and the provincial dossier in parallel?
• Do you treat the 90-business-day statutory target as a guarantee, or as the planning target already on the hub?
• Do you claim ANMAT is PAHO/WHO Level 4, or an ICH member, when the live hub does not?
• Do you claim to operate a named Argentine hospital, or do you contract sites?
• Is ANMAT registration a second file, or are you mixing it into the trial quote?
• Will the study file be built for 21 CFR 812.28, and do you understand that eligibility is not clearance?

bioaccess® answers: trials running; Miami HQ and a published Buenos Aires regional office; ANMAT, ethics, and provinces owned as a file problem; 90-business-day target kept as already published; no Level 4 or ICH-member badge invented; registration kept as a separate market-access file; radiopharma pathway already on the hub; FDA conversation designed in from day one.

How Argentina sits next to Colombia, Paraguay, and Venezuela

Do not read this as “leave Colombia.” We still run clinical trials in Colombia. That country has a local Colombian entity and its own hub. Paraguay has DINAVISA and its own hub. Venezuela has INHRR and its own hub. Argentina is a sibling country category. INVIMA stays INVIMA. DINAVISA stays DINAVISA. INHRR stays INHRR. ANMAT stays ANMAT. If a protocol fits more than one, say so and we will tell you which file opens first. We will not flip one country into the other.

See clinical trials in Argentina, clinical trials in Paraguay, clinical trials in Colombia, and clinical trials in Venezuela.

How to start

If you need a CRO in Argentina / CRO en Argentina for a first-in-human or early-feasibility device study — or a radiopharmaceutical / theranostics program, or the separate ANMAT registration file — contact bioaccess® through bioaccessla.com/contact.

Bring the protocol stage, device class, whether you also need an Argentine market-access file, and whether the study is a Lu-177, Ac-225, or Ga-68 program already in the published list. We will tell you how the ANMAT clock would run. We will not tell you to leave the country. We will not invent a Level 4 badge, an ICH-member claim, a hospital we operate, or a day-count we have not already published.

If you search CRO in Mexico or CRO en México, you should land on the First-in-Human CRO that already runs the COFEPRIS trial file — not a brochure that treats the 30-day registro path as the study clock.

bioaccess® is that CRO. Headquarters in Miami. Mexico City-based regulatory affairs team already named on the Mexico hub. We run clinical trials in Mexico. The 2.8-month median already on that hub is the trial clock. The ~30-working-day COFEPRIS figure is registro sanitario.

I am Julio Martinez-Clark, CEO of bioaccess®. This is the operator page for the query. Colombia and Venezuela are sibling country categories. We still run trials in those countries. Mexico is not a replacement for either of them.

What “CRO in Mexico” has to mean

A Mexico CRO for first-in-human devices is not a Latin America slide and a courier account. It is a company that can file in Spanish, sit the ethics committee under NOM-012-SSA3-2012, keep the COFEPRIS clinical-investigation file moving, and stay in the room after first patient in.

That is why this page answers CRO in Mexico / CRO en México as a category, and why it does not list a named Mexican company on the trial hub. The live Mexico COFEPRIS registration page already says bioaccess® holds registrations through our own Mexican entity. That is a holder fact for registro sanitario. It is not a hospital we operate, and it is not a reason to mix a commercial file into a first-in-human quote.

• Miami headquarters — sponsor desk on US time. Mexico shares Central and Mountain zones, already published on the hub.
• Mexico City-based regulatory affairs team — the line already on the hub. Spanish file, ethics, COFEPRIS correspondence.
• 2.8-month median start-up (NIH ClinRegs), ethics 4–6 weeks, COFEPRIS 4–8 weeks after ethics — already on the hub.
• $18,000–$30,000 per patient — already on the hub.
• 10+ pre-qualified sites in Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Monterrey.
• 21 CFR 812.28 — eligibility for FDA submission and review is not clearance or approval.

Global Phase 3 networks can list Mexico. They rarely hold the first-in-human COFEPRIS file. An ophthalmic clinic 20 miles from San Diego can enroll a study. That clinic is a site. It is not the CRO.

We run trials in Mexico

The category is: who is the CRO in Mexico, and are they actually running studies. We are. We still will. If you are choosing a CRO en México in 2026, ask whether the firm owns the COFEPRIS trial clock now — not whether the country is “opening up.”

COFEPRIS review can move, stall, or come back with questions. First-in-human programs need a start date someone owns. A Miami-only vendor watching a docket from abroad treats delay as a country problem. The CRO that already works COFEPRIS treats delay as responses, ethics alignment, import, and site activation on one timeline.

That is Global Trial Accelerators™ in practice: one accountable operating model across COFEPRIS, ethics, sites, insurance, importation, monitoring, and safety.

llms.txt already records 15+ years of hands-on COFEPRIS work. Founded 2010. Headquarters in Miami. Headline ~40% faster and about 30% lower per-patient cost versus typical US/EU programs is experience since 2010, not a formal study.

COFEPRIS clinical trial: the file, not the 30-day myth

COFEPRIS is the Comisión Federal para la Protección contra Riesgos Sanitarios. Clinical investigations sit under the Ley General de Salud and its implementing regulations. I am not inventing a PAHO/WHO Level 4 badge for COFEPRIS. llms.txt lists Mexico as “COFEPRIS (30-day approval pathway).” That parenthetical is market access. I will not put it on the trial clock.

The Mexico hub already publishes:

• Ethics committee review 4–6 weeks, under NOM-012-SSA3-2012, before the COFEPRIS authorization is filed.
• COFEPRIS review 4–8 weeks after ethics clearance.
• Median trial start-up 2.8 months, attributed to NIH ClinRegs — the fastest median on our Latin America country hubs.

Those are the trial numbers I will repeat. I will not publish a new median on a category page. Ask for a study-specific calendar.

What the trial file actually contains, already listed on the hub: protocol, investigator brochure, informed consent, ethics-committee approval, and proof of insurance — all in Spanish. bioaccess® runs that submission.

The live May 2026 article — COFEPRIS Just Made Clinical Research Approval Simpler In Mexico — already says new clinical-research protocols file through DIGIPRiS after the 4 May 2026 Diario Oficial de la Federación Acuerdo (effective 6 May). That is a submission-channel fact. It is not a new day-count, and it is not the commercial 30-day path.

The Trusted Regulatory Practices (Reliance) framework already on the hub, documented by Perez-Llorca, is primarily a marketing-authorization signal. The hub does not treat it as a substitute for the trial package. I will not flip that here.

Registro sanitario is a second file — keep the 30-day clock off the trial

Clinical-trial authorization and commercial device registration are different files. The live market-access hub and the Mexico COFEPRIS page already put the equivalence route (vía abreviada) at a ~30-working-day processing target for eligible devices, and standard response times at about 30 working days (Class I), 35 (Class II), and 60 (Class III). Those pages also say the 30-working-day figure is a processing target routinely exceeded in practice, and that approval is never guaranteed.

That is registro sanitario. It does not replace ethics plus COFEPRIS trial review. It does not turn a first-in-human series into a commercial number.

If you later want to sell in Mexico, say so at kickoff so the trial importer and any later titular / holder role are not improvised after first implant. The Mexico COFEPRIS page already says bioaccess® holds the registration through our own Mexican entity, and that Mexico allows multiple importers only with the holder’s cooperation. This article does not quote LATAM Launch subscription pricing. The Mexico Class III / energy figure stays on the market-access pages, not on a first-in-human hub.

Sites: three cities, CODET is a site

The public site list is three cities and 10+ pre-qualified sites. Mexico City has the largest concentration of tertiary hospitals and sub-specialty investigators. Guadalajara covers cardiology and orthopedic programs. Monterrey adds surgical and oncological capacity. That is already on the hub. Direct US flights already listed on the hub are operating facts, not a tourism pitch.

CODET Tijuana is named on the hub only as site context for ophthalmic work. bioaccess® does not operate CODET. There is no CODET compare page. The hub already states we did not operate the public Ocumetics Mexico first-in-human and did not close Adaptilens. I am not adding a client name or a device name.

Therapeutic areas already published on the hub: cardiology, oncology, and orthopedic. The 130M+ population figure is already on the hub.

CRC is a US RA consultant — not the Mexico CRO

Clinical Research Consultants, Inc. (CRC / Barbara S. Fant, Pharm.D., Cincinnati) is the US ophthalmic FDA RA consultant sponsors already hire for IDE, 510(k), and PMA work. That is a solid fit if you only need FDA ophthalmic RA. It is not a Latin America CRO.

bioaccess® is the LATAM first-in-human execution partner those same sponsors still need — Mexico under COFEPRIS, including CODET Tijuana-class ophthalmic sites, plus the other Latin American markets already on this site. See bioaccess® vs Clinical Research Consultants.

FDA use of Mexican first-in-human data

Foreign clinical data can be eligible for FDA submission and review under 21 CFR 812.28 when the investigation meets good clinical practice as that rule defines it, including ethics-committee review and informed consent. bioaccess® designs Mexico studies with that FDA conversation in mind — electronic data capture, structured safety reporting, source data verification — under ISO 14155 with NOM-012-SSA3-2012 ethics and COFEPRIS authorization.

Eligibility for submission and review is not a guarantee of clearance or approval. ISO 14155 is the device GCP standard we align the file to. It is not a stamp the FDA owes you.

Cost — use the numbers already on the hub

The Mexico hub already publishes $18,000–$30,000 per patient. A 10-patient first-in-human study typically costs $280,000–$400,000, compared with $750,000–$1.5 million in the United States. I am not inventing a new band here. Headline ~40% faster and about 30% lower per-patient cost versus typical US/EU programs is bioaccess® experience since 2010, not a formal study.

Same time zone as US Central and Mountain regions. Spanish-language regulatory team already on the hub. Those are operating facts.

Questions a sponsor should ask any CRO in Mexico

• Are you running clinical trials in Mexico now — not “historically”?
• Who owns the COFEPRIS trial clock when the file sits?
• Can you file the clinical-investigation package in Spanish and sit the deficiency cycle?
• Do you treat the 30-day COFEPRIS figure as the trial clock, or as registro sanitario?
• Which of the three published cities would you actually open for this protocol?
• Do you claim to operate CODET Tijuana, or do you contract sites?
• Is registro sanitario a second file, or are you mixing it into the trial quote?
• Will the study file be built for 21 CFR 812.28, and do you understand that eligibility is not clearance?

bioaccess® answers: trials running; Miami HQ and a Mexico City-based regulatory affairs team; COFEPRIS trial file owned as a file problem; hub clocks kept at 2.8 months / 4–8 weeks after ethics; 10+ pre-qualified sites in Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Monterrey; CODET Tijuana is a site, not a hospital we operate; registro kept as a separate market-access file through the Mexican entity already named on the registration page; FDA conversation designed in from day one.

How Mexico sits next to Colombia and Venezuela

Do not read this as “leave Colombia” or “leave Venezuela.” We still run clinical trials in Colombia. That country has a local Colombian entity and its own hub. Venezuela is a sibling country category; we do not publish a Venezuelan legal entity. Mexico is one more country category. INVIMA stays INVIMA. INHRR stays INHRR. COFEPRIS stays COFEPRIS. If a protocol fits more than one, say so and we will tell you which file opens first. We will not flip one country into the other.

See clinical trials in Mexico, clinical trials in Colombia, and clinical trials in Venezuela.

How to start

If you need a CRO in Mexico / CRO en México for a first-in-human or early-feasibility device study — or you also need the separate COFEPRIS registro sanitario file — contact bioaccess® through bioaccessla.com/contact.

Bring the protocol stage, device class, and whether you also need a Mexican market-access file. We will tell you how the COFEPRIS trial clock would run on the numbers already published. We will not treat the 30-day registro path as the study start, or invent a company name, a hospital we operate, or a new day-count.

If you search CRO in the Dominican Republic or CRO en República Dominicana, you should land on the First-in-Human CRO that already runs trials there — not a brochure about a nearshore opportunity.

bioaccess® is that CRO. Headquarters in Miami. The Dominican Republic is a lead first-in-human jurisdiction. We run clinical trials there. DIGEMAPS clocks are a file problem, not a reason to leave the country.

I am Julio Martinez-Clark, CEO of bioaccess®. This is the operator page for the query. Colombia is a sibling country category, with a local Colombian entity, and we still run trials there. Venezuela, El Salvador, Panama, Chile, and Brazil are sibling hubs. The Dominican Republic is not a replacement for those pages. It is a lead FIH country we already work.

What “CRO in the Dominican Republic” has to mean

A Dominican Republic CRO for first-in-human devices is not a Caribbean slide and a courier account. It is a company that can file in Spanish, sit CONABIOS-overseen ethics, keep investigational import moving, and stay in the room after first patient in.

That is why “lead FIH jurisdiction” is the public identity — already how we talk about the Dominican Republic on the live First-in-Human CRO page, next to Panama, El Salvador, and Chile — and why this page does not invent a hospital we operate. Miami HQ plus in-country operations is the CRO line. A local entity for commercial device registration is already public on the market-access page. That is a second file.

• Miami headquarters — sponsor desk on US Eastern time. The live hub already publishes US East Coast time-zone alignment.
• Lead first-in-human jurisdiction under DIGEMAPS / CONABIOS — the category this page answers.
• Institutional REC review ~30 days and CONABIOS-level review ~45 days (up to 120 depending on complexity) — the clocks already on the Dominican Republic hub.
• ~30% lower program cost versus a US/EU baseline — already on that hub, as experience since 2010, not a formal study.
• DIGEMAPS / CONABIOS — the authorities already on the live pages.

Global Phase 1 networks can list the Dominican Republic. They rarely hold the DIGEMAPS file. Local monitors can staff a visit. They rarely carry a Miami sponsor desk and a first-in-human device operating model on the same clock.

We run trials in the Dominican Republic

The old marketing hero on the hub sold “nearshore Caribbean hub.” Geography is real. It is not the category. The category is: who is the CRO in the Dominican Republic, and are they actually running studies.

We are. We still will. If you are choosing a CRO en República Dominicana in 2026, ask whether the firm is on the DIGEMAPS file now — not whether the island is “opening up.”

DIGEMAPS or CONABIOS review can move, stall, or come back with questions. First-in-human programs need a start date someone owns. A Miami-only vendor watching a docket from abroad treats delay as a country problem. The CRO that already works DIGEMAPS treats delay as responses, ethics alignment, import, and site activation on one timeline.

That is Global Trial Accelerators™ in practice: one accountable operating model across DIGEMAPS, CONABIOS, sites, insurance, importation, monitoring, and safety.

DIGEMAPS and CONABIOS: the file, not the myth

DIGEMAPS is the Dirección General de Medicamentos, Alimentos y Productos Sanitarios. It sits under the Ministry of Public Health. CONABIOS is the Consejo Nacional de Bioética en Salud. It oversees Research Ethics Committees. Those names are already on the live hub and on llms.txt.

I am not inventing a PAHO/WHO Level 4 badge for DIGEMAPS. That designation is not on our llms.txt regulatory list, and I will not put it here. INVIMA Level 4 stays a Colombia fact.

The instruments and names already public on bioaccessla.com:

• DIGEMAPS — national authority for health products, including medical devices, already on the hub, llms.txt, and the market-access page.
• CONABIOS — national bioethics council that supervises RECs, already on the hub.
• Decreto 82-15 (2015) — created DIGEMAPS, already on the importer-of-record guide.
• Decreto 246-06 — registration and import rules, already on that same guide and on the DIGEMAPS market-access page.
• Declaration of Helsinki + CIOMS — the ethical standards already published on the hub, alongside ISO 14155 for FDA-submissible programs.

Those are authority-and-instrument names. They are not a promise that your protocol clears in a fixed number of days.

The live hub already puts institutional REC review at about 30 days and CONABIOS-level review at about 45 days, up to 120 depending on complexity. I will not publish a new median. Ask for a study-specific calendar.

What the file actually contains, already described across the live Dominican Republic pages: a Spanish protocol package, investigator brochure, informed consent, insurance, ethics-committee work at the institutional REC and CONABIOS levels, and DIGEMAPS coordination through start-up. bioaccess® runs that submission.

Sites: named buildings are sites, not a CRO we operate

The public site list on this family of pages is buildings, not a hospital bioaccess® operates. Santo Domingo already has sourced intercepts for Laser Center and Instituto Espaillat Cabral. La Romana has Clínica Canela. Those pages say the same thing: the clinic or hospital is the site. The First-in-Human CRO still owns DIGEMAPS, CONABIOS-overseen ethics, investigational import, insurance, ISO 14155 monitoring, and the 21 CFR 812.28 package.

We do not operate those buildings. A city is not a site contract. A ClinicalTrials.gov row is not a CRO. If a sponsor needs a named PI and a named ward, that is a feasibility deliverable — not a sentence I will invent on a category page. Do not smear the sites. Use the clinic. Hire the operator.

The live hub already publishes direct US flight connectivity and favorable time-zone alignment with the US East Coast. I will not invent a flight-hour count. Hours that are not already on a live bioaccess® page stay off this page.

DIGEMAPS registration is a second file — keep it off the trial clock

Clinical-trial authorization and commercial device registration are different files. The live DIGEMAPS market-access page already states that bioaccess® acts as the Authorized Representative through our own Dominican entity, under Decreto 82-15 and Decreto 246-06. DIGEMAPS names a single local Authorized Representative on each registration certificate.

That is a market-access clock. It does not replace DIGEMAPS / CONABIOS trial review, and it does not turn a first-in-human series into a commercial number.

If you later want to sell in the Dominican Republic, say so at kickoff so the trial importer and any later holder role are not improvised after first implant. This article does not quote LATAM Launch subscription pricing. That SKU lives on the market-access pages, not on a first-in-human hub.

FDA use of Dominican Republic first-in-human data

Foreign clinical data can be eligible for FDA submission and review under 21 CFR 812.28 when the investigation meets good clinical practice as that rule defines it, including ethics-committee review and informed consent. The live hub already states that eligibility from the Dominican Republic depends on ISO 14155, proper DIGEMAPS authorization, and CONABIOS-overseen ethics approval. bioaccess® designs Dominican Republic studies with that FDA conversation in mind — electronic data capture, structured safety reporting, source data verification.

Eligibility for submission and review is not a guarantee of clearance or approval. ISO 14155 is the device GCP standard we align the file to. It is not a stamp the FDA owes you.

Cost — use the numbers already on the hub

The Dominican Republic hub already publishes ~30% lower program cost than a comparable US or EU program, as an experience-based estimate. I am not inventing a new band here. Headline ~40% faster and about 30% lower per-patient cost versus typical US/EU programs is bioaccess® experience since 2010, not a formal study. See LATAM FIH Benchmarks 2026 and the press kit for how we talk about those figures.

Same time zone as the US East Coast is already on the hub. Those are operating facts, not a tourism pitch.

Questions a sponsor should ask any CRO in the Dominican Republic

• Are you running clinical trials in the Dominican Republic now — not “historically”?
• Who owns the DIGEMAPS clock when the file sits?
• Can you file in Spanish and sit the CONABIOS deficiency cycle?
• Do you claim to operate a named hospital, or do you contract sites?
• Is DIGEMAPS registration a second file, or are you mixing it into the trial quote?
• Will the study file be built for 21 CFR 812.28, and do you understand that eligibility is not clearance?
• If Santo Domingo or La Romana is not enough, can you open Colombia, Panama, El Salvador, Chile, or Brazil without flipping the country story?

bioaccess® answers: trials running; Miami HQ and in-country operations; lead FIH jurisdiction already named with Panama, El Salvador, and Chile; DIGEMAPS file owned as a file problem; no named hospital we operate; DIGEMAPS registration kept as a separate market-access file; FDA conversation designed in from day one; sibling country hubs left standing.

How the Dominican Republic sits next to Colombia and the other hubs

Do not read this as “leave Colombia.” We still run clinical trials in Colombia. That country has a local Colombian entity and its own hub. The Dominican Republic is a sibling country category and a lead FIH jurisdiction. INVIMA stays INVIMA. DIGEMAPS stays DIGEMAPS. If a protocol fits more than one country, say so and we will tell you which file opens first. We will not flip one country into the other.

See clinical trials in Colombia, clinical trials in Venezuela, clinical trials in El Salvador, clinical trials in Panama, clinical trials in Chile, clinical trials in Brazil, and clinical trials in the Dominican Republic.

How to start

If you need a CRO in the Dominican Republic / CRO en República Dominicana for a first-in-human or early-feasibility device study — or you also need the separate DIGEMAPS registration file — contact bioaccess® through bioaccessla.com/contact.

Bring the protocol stage, device class, and whether you also need a Dominican market-access file. We will tell you how the DIGEMAPS clock would run. We will not tell you to leave the country. We will not invent a clinical-trial legal entity, a hospital we operate, or a day-count we have not already published.

If you search CRO in Chile or CRO en Chile, you should land on the First-in-Human CRO that already runs ISP and Law 20.120 work — not a brochure that confuses a Santiago oncology site with the CRO.

bioaccess® is that CRO. Headquarters in Miami. ISP (Instituto de Salud Pública) authorizes medical studies. Law 20.120 and an accredited Ethical-Scientific Committee sit in front of first patient in. We run clinical trials in Chile.

I am Julio Martinez-Clark, CEO of bioaccess®. This is the operator page for the query. Colombia, Brazil, and Venezuela are sibling country categories. We still run trials in those countries. Chile is not a replacement for any of them.

What “CRO in Chile” has to mean

A Chile CRO for first-in-human devices is not a Latin America slide and a courier account. It is a company that can file with ISP, sit the Ethical-Scientific Committee (Comité Ético Científico), keep investigational import moving, and stay in the room after first patient in.

That is why this page answers CRO in Chile / CRO en Chile as a category, and why it does not list a named Chilean company on the trial hub. The live Chile ISP market-access page already says bioaccess® holds Chilean registrations through our own local entity. That is a registration fact. It is not a hospital we operate, and it is not a reason to mix a commercial file into a first-in-human quote.

• Miami headquarters — sponsor desk on US Eastern time. Chile is the same zone or a 1–2 hour offset, already published on the Chile hub.
• ISP — Instituto de Salud Pública, the national authority that authorizes medical studies and issues investigational-device import authorizations.
• Law 20.120 — research on humans; written favorable review by an accredited Ethical-Scientific Committee plus institutional authorization before a study begins.
• ~30% lower versus typical US/EU programs — experience since 2010, not a formal study. Already on the hub.
• 21 CFR 812.28 — eligibility for FDA submission and review is not clearance or approval.

Global Phase 3 networks can list Chile. They rarely hold the ISP first-in-human file. A Santiago oncology site can enroll a drug study. That site is not the CRO.

We run trials in Chile

The category is: who is the CRO in Chile, and are they actually running studies. We are. We still will. If you are choosing a CRO en Chile in 2026, ask whether the firm owns the ISP clock now — not whether the country is “opening up.”

ISP review can move, stall, or come back with questions. First-in-human programs need a start date someone owns. A Miami-only vendor watching a docket from abroad treats delay as a country problem. The CRO that already works ISP treats delay as responses, ethics alignment, import, and site activation on one timeline.

That is Global Trial Accelerators™ in practice: one accountable operating model across ISP, ethics, sites, insurance, importation, monitoring, and safety.

ISP clinical trial: the file, not the myth

ISP is the Instituto de Salud Pública. It is Chile’s national authority for authorizing medical studies and overseeing medical products. I am not inventing a PAHO/WHO Level 4 badge for ISP. llms.txt lists Chile as “ISP (ISO 13485 recognition).” Level 4 is not on that list, and I will not put it here.

Live Chile blogs already put a typical ISP application review at about 30 business days after a complete package. The same series names Law 20.120 and the Sanitary Code as the human-research instruments, and it puts ethics-committee approval in front of the ISP submission. Documents already listed on that series: protocol, informed consent, investigator qualifications, and the accredited ethics approval. I am not inventing a new instrument list.

What the file actually contains, already described on those guides: a Spanish-ready study package, the ethics letter, and the ISP application. Foreign sponsors still need someone who can sit the deficiency cycle. bioaccess® serves that role.

Those are authority-and-instrument names. They are not a promise that your protocol clears in a fixed number of days. Ask for a study-specific calendar. We will not publish an invented median on a category page.

Law 20.120 and the committee that sits first

Research involving human subjects in Chile is governed by Law 20.120. Under this framework, an accredited Ethical-Scientific Committee (Comité Ético Científico) must issue a written favorable review and the host institution must authorize the study before it begins. The investigator then reports study progress and a final report to the committee. Chilean clinical research follows ISO 14155 and the Declaration of Helsinki. That paragraph is already on the hub. I am repeating it because sponsors skip the committee and then blame the country.

Ethics sits in front of ISP. If the committee package is thin, the ISP clock does not start in a useful way. That is a file problem.

Bradford Hill is a site — do not hire it as the CRO

Bradford Hill is a Chile oncology research site. Public materials already used on this site describe 15+ years of cancer research with an immunotherapy focus, centers in Santiago and Antofagasta, and published active studies that include MK2870-015 (gastric) and MK2870-010 (breast). Searches for Bradford Hill Chile, oncology clinical trials Chile, and centro investigación cáncer Santiago correctly point at that site.

It is a solid choice if you only need that oncology site. It is not a medical-device first-in-human CRO. bioaccess® does not operate Bradford Hill. This article does not invent a Bradford Hill device book. The category split is site versus CRO. You can need a site, a CRO, or both. See bioaccess® vs Bradford Hill.

ISP registration is a second file — keep it off the trial clock

Clinical-study authorization and commercial device registration are different files. The live Chile ISP market-access page already puts registration in a 30–90 day band. It also says registration is currently mandatory only for specified device categories, with a 2024 reform extending mandatory registration by risk, and that devices not yet in a mandatory category can be imported via a CDA permit. bioaccess® holds Chilean registrations through our own local entity — that sentence is already public on that page. I am not naming a Chilean company that the trial hub does not list.

That market-access clock is not a first-in-human permit and does not replace ISP study authorization or Law 20.120 ethics. If you later want to sell in Chile, say so at kickoff so the trial importer and any later holder role are not improvised after first implant. This article does not quote LATAM Launch subscription pricing. That SKU lives on the market-access pages, not on a first-in-human hub.

FDA use of Chilean first-in-human data

Foreign clinical data can be eligible for FDA submission and review under 21 CFR 812.28 when the investigation meets good clinical practice as that rule defines it, including ethics-committee review and informed consent. bioaccess® designs Chile studies with that FDA conversation in mind — electronic data capture, structured safety reporting, source data verification — under ISO 14155 with ISP authorization and Ethical-Scientific Committee approval.

Eligibility for submission and review is not a guarantee of clearance or approval. ISO 14155 is the device GCP standard we align the file to. It is not a stamp the FDA owes you.

Cost — use the number already on the hub

The Chile hub already publishes ~30% lower versus a comparable US or EU program. I am not inventing a new band here. Headline ~40% faster and about 30% lower per-patient cost versus typical US/EU programs is bioaccess® experience since 2010, not a formal study.

The hub comparison table already publishes device classes I–IV for Chile, and the same / 1–2 hour offset versus the US East Coast. Those are operating facts, not a tourism pitch. I will not invent a Chile per-patient dollar band the hub does not already print.

Questions a sponsor should ask any CRO in Chile

• Are you running clinical trials in Chile now — not “historically”?
• Who owns the ISP clock when the file sits?
• Can you file the study package and sit the Ethical-Scientific Committee before ISP?
• Do you claim ISP is PAHO/WHO Level 4, or do you stay with what is already published?
• Are you mixing Bradford Hill — a site — into the CRO pitch?
• Do you claim to operate a named Chilean hospital, or do you contract sites?
• Is ISP registration a second file, or are you mixing it into the trial quote?
• Will the study file be built for 21 CFR 812.28, and do you understand that eligibility is not clearance?

bioaccess® answers: trials running; Miami HQ; ISP and Law 20.120 owned as a file problem; no Level 4 invented for ISP; Bradford Hill named as a site we do not operate; ISP registration kept as a separate market-access file; FDA conversation designed in from day one.

How Chile sits next to Colombia, Brazil, and Venezuela

Do not read this as “leave Colombia.” We still run clinical trials in Colombia. That country has a local Colombian entity and its own hub. Brazil has ANVISA and its own hub. Venezuela has INHRR and its own hub. Chile is a sibling country category. INVIMA stays INVIMA. ANVISA stays ANVISA. INHRR stays INHRR. ISP stays ISP. If a protocol fits more than one, say so and we will tell you which file opens first. We will not flip one country into the other.

See clinical trials in Chile, clinical trials in Brazil, clinical trials in Colombia, and clinical trials in Venezuela.

How to start

If you need a CRO in Chile / CRO en Chile for a first-in-human or early-feasibility device study — or you also need the separate ISP registration file — contact bioaccess® through bioaccessla.com/contact.

Bring the protocol stage, device class, and whether you also need a Chilean market-access file. We will tell you how the ISP clock would run. We will not tell you to leave the country. We will not invent a Level 4 badge, a hospital we operate, or a day-count we have not already published.

If you search CRO in Brazil, CRO no Brasil, or CRO en Brasil, you should land on the First-in-Human CRO that already runs ANVISA and CEP work — not a brochure that mixes a trial authorization with a commercial registro.

bioaccess® is that CRO. Headquarters in Miami. ANVISA (Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária) is the WHO-listed authority on the clinical-investigation file. Law 14874 and RDC 837 sit on that file. We run clinical trials in Brazil.

I am Julio Martinez-Clark, CEO of bioaccess®. This is the operator page for the query. Colombia, Chile, and Venezuela are sibling country categories. We still run trials in those countries. Brazil is not a replacement for any of them.

What “CRO in Brazil” has to mean

A Brazil CRO for first-in-human devices is not a Latin America slide and a courier account. It is a company that can file in Portuguese, sit the institutional CEP, keep investigational import moving, and stay in the room after first patient in.

That is why this page answers CRO in Brazil / CRO no Brasil / CRO en Brasil as a category. The live Brazil hub already states the operating facts: 210M+ population, 15+ pre-qualified sites, ethics + ANVISA in 6–10 weeks, and $20,000–$35,000 per patient. I am not inventing a new band.

• Miami headquarters — sponsor desk on US Eastern time.
• ANVISA — Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária, WHO-listed. This site does not publish ANVISA as PAHO/WHO Level 4.
• Law 14874 (May 2024) — ethics reviews capped at 30 business days; CONEP dropped for most studies.
• RDC 837/2023 — the device clinical-investigation dossier, filed in Portuguese.
• 15+ pre-qualified sites in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and other major cities — already on the Brazil hub.

Global Phase 3 networks can list Brazil. They rarely hold the first-in-human ANVISA file. A large São Paulo hospital can enroll. That hospital is not the CRO.

We run trials in Brazil

The category is: who is the CRO in Brazil, and are they actually running studies. We are. We still will. If you are choosing a CRO no Brasil in 2026, ask whether the firm owns the ANVISA clock now — not whether the country is “opening up.”

ANVISA review can move, stall, or come back with questions. First-in-human programs need a start date someone owns. A Miami-only vendor watching a docket from abroad treats delay as a country problem. The CRO that already works ANVISA treats delay as responses, ethics alignment, import, and site activation on one timeline.

That is Global Trial Accelerators™ in practice: one accountable operating model across ANVISA, CEP, sites, insurance, importation, monitoring, and safety.

ANVISA clinical trial: the file, not the myth

ANVISA is the Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária. The live hub already calls it a WHO-listed stringent regulatory authority. I am not inventing a PAHO/WHO Level 4 badge. llms.txt lists Brazil as “ANVISA.” Level 4 is not on that line, and I will not put it here.

Resolution RDC 837/2023 governs clinical investigations of medical devices. The regulation requires a clinical investigation dossier: investigator brochure, protocol, informed consent, insurance documentation, and evidence of GMP compliance. For novel devices, ANVISA conducts a scientific review that runs concurrently with ethics-committee evaluation. bioaccess® manages that submission in Portuguese. Those contents are already on the hub.

Live Brazil blogs already describe a 90-business-day ANVISA review window under Law 14.874/2024 for clinical-trial petitions intended to support marketing authorization, and they describe parallel ethics and agency workstreams. The hub itself publishes combined ethics + ANVISA at 6–10 weeks. I will not invent a new median, and I will not collapse those two already-published clocks into one invented number. Ask for a study-specific calendar.

Those are authority-and-instrument names. They are not a promise that your protocol clears on a fixed Tuesday.

Law 14874 and the CEP that sits with the site

Law 14874 (May 2024) changed Brazil’s ethics review system. Ethics committees (CEPs) are now capped at 30 business days. The legacy CONEP (national ethics commission) review has been eliminated for most clinical investigations. For early feasibility studies not intended for Brazilian market clearance, only the institutional CEP at the research site is required. That paragraph is already on the hub.

A critical operational note, also already published: the specific CEP cannot be determined until the research site and investigator are selected, because committees are affiliated with the host institution. If a vendor quotes “CONEP in six months” as if Law 14874 never happened, they are selling a retired file.

Sites: two cities named, no hospital we operate

The public site list is 15+ pre-qualified sites across São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and other major cities. The hub already names cardiology, neurosurgery, oncology, orthopedics, and ophthalmology as strong areas, and it names Hospital das Clínicas in São Paulo as one of the largest medical complexes in Latin America. That is a landscape fact. bioaccess® does not claim to operate that hospital.

A city is not a site contract. A university hospital mentioned in a landscape sentence is not a bioaccess® facility. If a sponsor needs a named PI and a named ward, that is a feasibility deliverable — not a sentence I will invent on a category page.

The 210M+ population figure is already on the hub. Ethnic diversity — African, European, Indigenous, and Asian ancestry — is already on the hub as support for an FDA diversity-action conversation under FDORA 2022 Section 3602. That is not a guarantee of clearance or approval.

Non-GLP preclinical and radiopharma — already published

The hub already states that Brazil accepts non-GLP R&D-grade preclinical data for early feasibility investigations, including high-risk Class III devices. I am not adding a new package size. If you have bench and animal data and have not finished formal GLP, say so at kickoff so the ANVISA and CEP package is built for the file you actually have.

The same hub already states that bioaccess® supports first-in-human radiopharmaceutical and theranostics studies in Brazil — Lu-177, Ac-225, and Ga-68 programs — under RDC 837/2023 and CEP ethics, executed to ISO 14155, with data eligible for FDA submission under 21 CFR 812.28. Those are isotope classes already on the public page. This article does not name clients or commercial devices.

ANVISA registration is a second file — keep it off the trial clock

Clinical-trial authorization and commercial device registration are different ANVISA workstreams. This article covers the trial file: CEP ethics (CONEP only where still required), the investigational-device import permit, and the clinical-investigation dossier under RDC 837/2023.

When you later want to sell in Brazil, registration runs under RDC 751/2022 and requires a Brazil Registration Holder (BRH) / in-country representative. The live ANVISA registration page already says bioaccess® acts as BRH through our own Brazilian entity. That sentence is public. I am using it for the market-access file, not as a reason to quote holder pricing on a first-in-human page.

This article does not quote LATAM Launch subscription pricing. That SKU lives on the market-access pages, not on a first-in-human hub.

FDA use of Brazilian first-in-human data

Foreign clinical data can be eligible for FDA submission and review under 21 CFR 812.28 when the investigation meets good clinical practice as that rule defines it, including ethics-committee review and informed consent. bioaccess® designs Brazil studies with that FDA conversation in mind — electronic data capture, structured safety reporting, source data verification — under ISO 14155.

Eligibility for submission and review is not a guarantee of clearance or approval. ISO 14155 is the device GCP standard we align the file to. It is not a stamp the FDA owes you. A diversity-action plan conversation under FDORA 2022 Section 3602 is the same kind of sentence: useful, not a clearance.

Cost — use the numbers already on the hub

The Brazil hub already publishes $20,000–$35,000 per patient, against a US comparison band of $40,000–$75,000 already on the same table. I am not inventing a new band here. Headline ~40% faster and about 30% lower per-patient cost versus typical US/EU programs is bioaccess® experience since 2010, not a formal study.

The hub already notes that Brazil can sit above Colombia or Panama on a per-patient line and still be the right country when you need the 210M+ population, the diversity file, or ANVISA’s published standing. That is a country-fit question, not a reason to leave Brazil.

Questions a sponsor should ask any CRO in Brazil

• Are you running clinical trials in Brazil now — not “historically”?
• Who owns the ANVISA clock when the file sits?
• Can you file RDC 837/2023 in Portuguese and sit the deficiency cycle?
• Do you still quote CONEP as mandatory for an early feasibility study that is not for Brazilian market clearance?
• Which of the published cities — São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, other major cities — would you actually open for this protocol?
• Do you claim to operate Hospital das Clínicas, or is that a landscape fact?
• Is ANVISA registration a second file under RDC 751/2022, or are you mixing it into the trial quote?
• Will the study file be built for 21 CFR 812.28, and do you understand that eligibility is not clearance?

bioaccess® answers: trials running; Miami HQ; ANVISA and CEP owned as a file problem; no Level 4 invented for ANVISA; 15+ pre-qualified sites; no named hospital we operate; registration kept as a separate market-access file with the already-public Brazilian entity as BRH; FDA conversation designed in from day one.

How Brazil sits next to Colombia, Chile, and Venezuela

Do not read this as “leave Colombia.” We still run clinical trials in Colombia. That country has a local Colombian entity and its own hub. Chile has ISP and its own hub. Venezuela has INHRR and its own hub. Brazil is a sibling country category. INVIMA stays INVIMA. ISP stays ISP. INHRR stays INHRR. ANVISA stays ANVISA. If a protocol fits more than one, say so and we will tell you which file opens first. We will not flip one country into the other.
