RALEIGH, N.C., Dec. 11 PRA International, a leadingClinical Research Organization, announces the opening of a new office inMexico City, Mexico. With years of long-standing South American operations,PRA entered the Mexico market in 2005. The region's existing base of clinicalsites with expertise in oncology, cardiovascular, CNS and infectious diseasesmatch favorably to PRA's therapeutic focus. The expansion is alsoadvantageous for PRA and its clients given Mexico's reliable regulatorytimelines and the ability to run placebo trials.
