About Us
Gaea is an agile, full-service, and digitally smart CRO. We have invested in the state of the art in digital software with Veeva and CRS Cube. We have been through the pains of computer system validation. We have a DPO and the best data security that an entity of our size can purchase.
A call out for Ukraine! Ukrainian patients need clinical research access and have very engaged research teams. We manage trials from Estonia and with risk assessment, sites can perform appropriate clinical trials, with fast patient recruitment, and minimum drop-out rates. They are now the fastest country for published regulatory review: an expert evaluation of a clinical trial application is now 30 calendar days and approval timeline is 5 calendar days, a very significant reduction in time to launch your trial in Ukraine.
We work in phases I – III, and provide services for all of Europe, Georgia, Ukraine, and USA.
While the big 10- CROs have the reach for large trials there are many downsides for smaller sponsors from bureaucracy and misaligned incentives. Unless it’s a large phase III partnering with the right smaller CRO is a better fit. We smaller CROs provide a personalized approach to drug development. We offer greater flexibility and nimbleness, allowing fast adaptation to change in study design or protocols.
Gaea wants to collaborate in our approach, to work closely with the sponsors to develop specific solutions to needs. It’s clear that drug development is falling behind in efficiency measured by money spent to products gaining regulatory approval. Our approach means a more efficient clinical trial development.
We are hands-on from the CEO. This level of accessibility means greater transparency, as sponsors have direct line of communication with the team lead responsible for their trial.
We work with drugs: immuno-oncology, neurodegeneration, respiratory and infectious diseases, dermatology, and in the most complex clinical area: intensive care (ARDS , sepsis and shock )
We work in medical device clinical investigation which is catching up with the rigour of drug clinical trials.
We have experience that we wish to share. The iconic elephant family depends on the senior female, the matriarch, who shares her experience for the family’s success. Gaea is Sharing our Experience to help sponsors.
We have been providing practical consulting in health care for 29 years: initially helping US companies work in Europe with trial project management, or trial oversight.
We moved into trial enrolment in slow enrolling ongoing trials in 2004 and as full service CRO in 2010.
In 2018, Gaea relocated from UK to Estonia, one of the most digital EU countries. There are only two things you cannot do in Estonia online- getting married, and divorced.
