From Lab to World: The Art and Science of Clinical Translations

The pharmaceutical industry grapples with regulatory complexities, patient accessibility, heightened competition, and technological advancements, all posing significant hurdles during clinical research. Amid escalating costs and elevated attrition rates, meticulous planning becomes imperative for clinical professionals like yourself. Every aspect is crucial to ensuring the success of each research study and language services have emerged as a crucial component in this landscape.

Overlooking this facet could lead to critical issues such as difficulties in patient recruitment or retention, delays in approval processes, substantial deviations from protocols, and incorrect data collection. Moreover, the most significant concern – the failure to adhere to ethical standards and the presentation of inaccurate information to the participants in a clinical study.

Partner with our expert translation services proficient in medical terminology, regulatory standards, and well-organized project management to navigate these challenges and ensure precise, timely, and compliant translations for successful clinical research in study sites in Europe.

By assigning your clinical research translations projects to Intertranslations, you overcome these challenges.

1. We follow the translation process recommended by the ISPOR, Food and Drug Administration, EORTC or WHO:

Pre-translation analysis of the source text.
Forward translation into the target language.
Reconciliation of multiple forward translations into a single target translation if necessary.
Back translation into the original language.
Evaluation and comparison of back-translated versions with the original text; resolution of discrepancies to create a final translation.
Alignment and harmonization of back-translations across multiple languages to ensure semantic and conceptual equivalence.
Final proofreading and refinement of the translated text.
