Clinical trials platform

Marsh’s clinical trials platform automates global insurance, streamlines compliance, centralizes risk, and accelerates approvals for smooth trial execution.

Simplifying complex insurance needs for clinical trials

Over 320,000 clinical trials are registered outside of the US, reflecting a growing trend to conduct trials abroad driven by cost efficiencies and access to unique patient populations. While this expansion offers valuable opportunities to develop more potentially lifesaving treatments, it also presents significant challenges for pharmaceutical and biotech companies.

Each country mandates specific clinical trials insurance policies — often local admitted policies with detailed data requirements such as principal investigator listings and hospital locations. Failure to meet these can delay trial approvals by ethics committees and other investigational review boards, impacting critical timelines. This complexity can lead to:

  • Lengthy delays in trial approvals due to incomplete or incorrect insurance submissions
  • Difficulty managing multiple policies with varying expiration dates, increasing the risk of coverage lapses
  • Risk of non-compliance with local regulations, potentially jeopardizing trial timelines and patent protections

Marsh’s clinical trials platform is designed to simplify and streamline complex insurance needs with a single, dynamic solution. By centralizing and automating the insurance procurement process, the platform supports compliance with local regulations while reducing administrative overhead, enabling pharmaceutical and biotech companies to focus on advancing their research.
