As clinical programmes progress, pharmacovigilance requirements become increasingly complex. Sponsors need access to specialist expertise, robust systems and regulatory oversight without necessarily building extensive internal infrastructure. Richmond provides flexible, inspection-ready pharmacovigilance support throughout clinical development, backed by more than two decades of practical clinical trial experience. Our services can be delivered as a standalone pharmacovigilance solution or integrated with Richmond's wider clinical development capabilities.

Standalone Pharmacovigilance | Integrated Clinical Development

Practical clinical trial experience underpins our approach to pharmacovigilance. With more than 500 clinical studies completed across Phase I–III, Richmond understands how safety decisions interact with trial design, conduct, governance and participant management. Sponsors benefit from:
Direct access to senior pharmacovigilance, medical, regulatory and clinical expertise.
Experience across Phase I–III clinical development.
MHRA Phase I accreditation.
Experience supporting complex studies and advanced therapeutic modalities.
Flexible support that can scale alongside development programmes.
Validated systems and inspection-ready quality processes.
Where services are integrated, our multidisciplinary teams work together to reduce handovers and support coordinated decision-making throughout study delivery.
Richmond also provides established safety management for clinical studies conducted at our research sites. Our site safety teams work closely with investigators and research physicians to support participant safety throughout study delivery. This includes: identification and documentation of adverse events; Serious Adverse Event (SAE) reporting; investigator assessment and medical oversight; safety information review and reconciliation; and communication with sponsors and relevant study teams. This established clinical safety experience provides an important foundation for Richmond's broader pharmacovigilance capabilities.

Our approach is underpinned by validated systems, clear governance and experienced clinical and pharmacovigilance professionals. Quality, regulatory compliance and participant safety are embedded throughout our processes, giving sponsors confidence as their development programmes progress.
