Clinical Trial Support
JMI Laboratories is a CLIA certified reference microbiology laboratory that provides GCLP support for bacterial and fungal phase I – IV clinical trials. We collect referred clinical pathogens from enrolled clinical trial patients isolated from the local laboratory. Once at JMI, these organisms are identified, susceptibility tested, and/or analyzed through other microbiology and molecular methods as required for the clinical trial design. The resulting testing data form is uploaded to the data management vendor, linked with patient clinical data, and submitted as part of your overall clinical trial data set.
