"FLYING COORDINATOR" SYSTEM
The "Flying Coordinator" system was introduced on 1 November 2016 with the objective to increase the quality, efficiency and standards of clinical trials. This Flying Coordinator" system aims to conduct high quality clinical trials within the institutes and departments of the Clinical Centre, and makes highly trained and competent staff available on these sites. This arrangement coincides with the long-term objective of KVKK, the University of Pécs, our sponsors, and the pharmaceutical industry. Our full-time clinical trial coordinators may be assigned to study sites if required, so we can safely resolve temporary or permanent staff shortages
OUR HISTORY
In the past, some of the study leaders often rejected requests for clinical trials due to the lack of study coordinators and study nurses.
The "Flying Coordinator" system has resolved this adverse phenomenon. As a first step the Registration Centre for Human Clinical Trials, HKVRK (the predecessor of the current Coordination Center for Clinical Trials, KVKK) and Faculty of Health Sciences ran a joint Clinical Trial Coordinator course (E-000327/2014/B001) in June 2015. There were 15 participants at this first course. Their training was completed with an exam on 30 June 2016. The newly trained clinical trial coordinators were then employed as the "Flying Coordinators".
On 1 November 2016 two "Flying Coordinators" started their work at the HKVRK (predecessor of KVKK). They initially worked at the Department of Dermatology, Gynecology and Oncodermatology on an experimental basis . Because of the high demand for these coordinators, we recruited an additional person in 2018. Currently the KVKK employes three full-time "flying coordinators"
OUR COORDINATORS
Our coordinators have Good Clinical Practice (GCP) certificates, and have more than 10 years of locally acquired clinical trial experience. All of them have nursing degrees, so they are not only clinical trial coordinators, but they may also perform the tasks of study nurses.
