About

About Clintrail

Clintrail acts as the Australian local sponsor for overseas companies running studies in Australia.

The overseas company keeps product ownership and global program control while Clintrail holds the Australian sponsor role for the local study.

What Clintrail is

An Australian company that acts as local sponsor.

When a sponsor appoints Clintrail, it is appointing an Australian entity to act as local sponsor for the study in Australia.

Sponsor role

Australian local sponsor

Clintrail acts as the Australian sponsor for the study in Australia.

Defined boundary

Clear sponsor-side separation

The overseas sponsor retains the product and the wider development program, while Clintrail acts as the Australian sponsor for the agreed study scope.

Use case

Built for overseas entry into Australia

The service is designed for sponsors that want to run a study in Australia without establishing their own local company before the trial begins.

Who Clintrail works with

Teams deciding how an Australian study will actually be organised before startup moves.

Regulatory and legal teams

Why sponsors choose Clintrail

Why overseas sponsors appoint a dedicated Australian sponsor

Clear role

The role is clearly defined

Clintrail is engaged to act as the Australian local sponsor. The responsibilities should be defined before Australian startup work begins.

Practicality

Sponsors can enter Australia without setting up a local company first

For many overseas companies, that is the practical reason to appoint a local sponsor rather than build an Australian entity before the study begins.

Continuity

The sponsor role stays in place through the study

Clintrail remains in the Australian sponsor role through start-up and study conduct for the agreed scope of the engagement.
