Inflamax Research Expands to the EU in Strategic Alliance with the Vienna Challenge Chamber
Toronto, ON (PRWEB) June 16, 2016 -- Inflamax Research Inc., a full service contract research organization (CRO) specializing in allergy, asthma, and ocular research utilizing environmental exposure chamber technology, with facilities in North America, announced today that is has entered into a strategic alliance with the Vienna Challenge Chamber or VCC, located in Austria. This strategic alliance will allow the expansion of multicenter EEC studies across the globe. Inflamax announced in 2015 an alliance in Japan with InCROM to bring their mobile EEC, mEEC™ system, to Japan. The mEEC™ is a state of the art facility designed to expose patients to controlled levels of airborne allergen, similar to those experienced in their daily lives, while reducing the variability of results, and increasing patient compliance compared to typical field trials.
“Our strategic alliance with the VCC team will further our goal to be able to effect multicenter EEC studies worldwide. We are excited to work with the renowned scientists, Drs. Petra and Réné Zieglmayer who have been thought leaders and pioneers in the development of the VCC system,” says Dr. Piyush Patel, CEO & Principle Scientist of Inflamax Research.
“We are pleased to be working together with Inflamax Research. We want to streamline our scientific efforts to develop the EEC standards and help our collaboration partners realize the full potential of their drug research. In our scientific approach we are aligned and excited to announce this alliance,” said Dr. Petra Zieglmayer.
