Advancing research, improving lives
At Panthera Clinical Research, we are dedicated to shaping the future of healthcare by conducting high-quality clinical trials across our six dedicated research sites in the UK. The development of new medicines and treatments relies on the invaluable contribution of volunteers who participate in clinical studies.
Our commitment to integrity and excellence is reflected in our six core values, ensuring every volunteer experiences the highest standard of care, respect, and transparency throughout their clinical trial journey.
Expanding Impact Through Collaboration
Since our inception, Panthera has demonstrated resilience and efficiency, expanding to six UK sites with ambitious growth plans, including partnerships in Sweden and Western Europe. Even through the challenges of a global pandemic, our focus on safety, trust, and operational excellence has allowed us to continue delivering high-quality clinical trials that meet the evolving needs of the pharmaceutical industry.
Results-Driven, Patient-Focused
At Panthera, we combine clinical precision with compassionate care. Our team of experienced medical professionals—including doctors, nurses, and research specialists—uphold the highest standards while ensuring patients feel valued, informed, and comfortable. We are committed to openness, collaboration, and efficiency, ensuring that every trial is conducted with integrity, transparency, and a focus on patient well-being.
Working Together with Local Healthcare Providers
Panthera is passionate about supporting local communities by collaborating with GPs, NHS Trusts, and local communities across the UK. These partnerships allow us to extend clinical research opportunities widely, bringing innovative treatments closer to you and your community.

Your partner in faster, smarter clinical trials
Streamlined Contracting and Start-up Process
Our central team will work closely with you to quickly complete the contracting and submission process, allowing recruitment to start sooner. We can negotiate the contract in parallel with the submissions and, without the need for any additional approvals (e.g. NHS R&D), we are able to start recruiting up to four months faster than public sector sites.
Our budgets are built in a way that minimises the upfront costs for the Sponsor, with most of the budget payable only if we deliver – we are that confident in our delivery!
Recruitment that moves faster—without compromise
We don’t just deliver trials—we deliver them with precision. Our purpose-built research sites, embedded within key communities, combined with our recruitment strategies, give us access to diverse, eligible patient populations quickly. As soon as the contract is signed we are able to start identifying and pre-screening patients, allowing us to start screening as soon as the site is activated. Our innovative approach to patient outreach, combined with our prescreening model, allows us to recruit more patients than traditional sites whilst reducing the number of time-consuming screening visits – a benefit for both patients and Sponsors.
The result? Our research partners save weeks, if not months, on timelines and the total cost of the trial is reduced—without sacrificing quality results.
Assess rigorously, execute accurately: Enhance, Optimise, Validate.
At Panthera, we understand what drives trial success: the right patients, reliable data, and a seamless collaboration from start to finish. That’s why we’ve built our model to deliver all three—efficiently, consistently, and at scale.
Experienced and Specialist Investigators
Each site has a team of highly experienced investigators to lead your trial. Our investigators have experience across a range of therapeutic areas from cardiovascular disease to MASH and Alzheimer’s, meaning you can be confident that every trial at Panthera is led by an expert in the therapy area.
Data you can trust, from day one
Every Panthera site is staffed by dedicated research teams and Principal Investigators who understand the value of robust, protocol-adherent data. Our operational and quality excellence model ensures consistency across all sites, so data integrity is never in question—regardless of location or trial complexity.
We’re audit-ready from the start, with systems built to exceed GCP and regulatory expectations.
Built on collaboration. Powered by experience.
It’s cliche to say it but, our team truly becomes an extension of your business. From feasibility to the conclusion of the trial, we collaborate openly, act fast, and adapt with agility to trial needs. Our hands-on, responsive approach helps mitigate risks, keep milestones on track, and deliver value from the very first meeting.
At Panthera, we know what success looks like in the real world of clinical research—and we deliver it, alongside you.
