Clinical research has become a fundamental step in the development of a dietary supplement. Nutraceutical companies are investing more in clinical research than ever before to support health and marketing claims and gain a competitive advantage in a saturated marketplace.
Clinical trial design is an often overlooked but incredibly important aspect of a successful development and market launch strategy. Many companies cut corners during the trial design phase in an attempt to save money upfront and get to market quicker. Unfortunately, this strategy can backfire and lead to statistically indecipheral results, devastating costs and irreparable brand damage for dietary supplement organizations.
This whitepaper is designed to help dietary supplement companies build a strategic development plan that focuses on clinical trial design to meet the end goal: the product claim.
