Formed through the strategic merger of legacy research firms like CATO SMS and Pharm-Olam, the company provides end-to-end clinical trial support to help innovators bring breakthrough therapies to market faster. Under the hood, Allucent manages the incredibly complex lifecycle of drug development—from clinical trial design, decentralized trial execution, and patient recruitment, to regulatory consulting, clinical pharmacology, and biometrics.
