Overview

Profound Research is a clinical research organization that operates a nationwide network of trial sites, partnering with community physicians to bring pharmaceutical and biotech studies into everyday medical practices. It recruits and enrolls patients from a combined database of more than 1.25 million people, coordinates site operations and investigator oversight, and runs studies across more than 15 therapeutic areas on behalf of trial sponsors. Its network spans 22 sites across four geographies, with over 1,000 providers, 110-plus active investigators, and more than 130 clinical trials conducted to date. What sets Profound Research apart is its model of embedding research infrastructure within existing community practices, giving physicians and their patients access to experimental treatments without leaving their local care setting. The goal is to expand patient access to new treatments while helping sponsors conduct trials through a community-based site network.
