About Avance Clinical’s Renal & Cardiometabolic Center of Excellence

Renal and cardiometabolic clinical development brings its own set of demands: overlapping comorbidities, variable disease progression, biomarker-driven endpoints, site and patient burden from frequent monitoring, and the tight interplay between kidney function and cardiovascular and metabolic risk.

Avance Clinical, the award-winning, global full-service CRO for biotechs, with a dedicated Renal & Cardiometabolic Center of Excellence is built specifically for that complexity.

The Center of Excellence embeds specialist scientific, medical, and operational leadership with deep regional knowledge, global patient access, and expert study design into trials from day one, so sponsors can move faster, recruit more efficiently, retain patients, and generate data with real-world applicability.

Meet our Renal & Cardiometabolic leadership team at ASN Kidney Week 2026 at booth INV07 or book a dedicated meeting to discuss your drug development program needs.

Trial Design Built for Renal & Cardiometabolic Complexity

Avance Clinical supports renal and cardiometabolic programs with design strategies tailored to comorbid patient populations, biomarker and composite endpoints, and the need to de-risk later-phase development earlier. That includes practical attention to inclusion criteria, enrichment strategy, endpoint selection, visit burden, and site capability across CKD, ESKD, dialysis, transplant, and cardiometabolic indications.

Early Engagement with Key Opinion Leaders

Feasibility problems that surface after a protocol is locked are the hardest and most expensive to fix. Avance Clinical's Renal & Cardiometabolic Center of Excellence integrates key opinion leaders in nephrology, cardiology, and endocrinology into study design from the earliest stages, so feasibility, recruitment planning, and execution get addressed before the protocol is finalized, not after.

One Team from Preclinical to Later Phase

Avance Clinical partners with biotechs from preclinical strategy through first-in-human, proof-of-concept, and later-phase clinical development. This continuity helps sponsors make better development decisions, maintain strategic alignment, and scale programs more efficiently across regions.

A Global Network Positioned Where Patients Are

Avance Clinical's renal and cardiometabolic network is robust in Asia, a hub for some of the highest and fastest-growing burden of kidney disease, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease in the world. That depth across China and Asia-Pacific sits inside a broader network spanning Australia, North America, and Europe, giving sponsors direct access to the patient populations these programs need, rather than waiting on a partner to build reach after the fact.
