DaVita Clinical Research
announced its Biorepository Services. These services offer the pharmaceutical industry collaborative research opportunities that combine access to high-quality samples combined with well-characterized patient data annotation.
DCR’s distinctive Biorepository Services support industry trends toward personalized medicine, empowered drug discovery and productive drug development for biotechnology and pharmaceutical sponsors, as well as platform technology companies. This approach aims to provide meaningful advances toward the future of more effective drug discovery and development.
“We are excited to begin this new chapter and believe the biorepository we are creating will set a new standard in the industry and add value to the drug discovery efforts of our partners,” stated DCR President Chris Rucker . “We believe that the unique characteristics of our offering will position us to meet a need in the discovery community that is currently not being satisfied by the existing biorepositories.”
DCR’s biorepository provides customized sample sets from patient populations collected nationally. These samples are collected under an IRB-approved protocol with the consent of patients. The samples contain high RNA and DNA yields and are suitable for genomic analysis. In addition, DCR collects samples under the same rigorous conditions that allow proteomic and metabolomic testing.

Trially Co-founder and CEO Kyle McAllister, explains how AI absorbing the bulk of clinical-trial chart reviews can free research sites to focus staff time on higher-value tasks.
In this video interview, Rajneesh Patil, global head of AI, digital, and innovation in clinical development at Syneos Health, explains why the shift from narrow AI tools to a continuous learning clinical operating system is where the real operational value lies—and what it takes to get there.
In this Q&A, Saamir Pasha and Carole Berini, PhD, of Ontada discuss what it takes to harmonize fragmented oncology data into reliable real-world evidence, how lab markers can proxy for missing functional status data, and where the biggest remaining barriers to consistent RWE generation lie.
In today’s ACT Brief, we examine who decides what trials measure, how designing for human thinking improves site execution, and how the FDA extended an immunotherapy to a new bladder cancer population.
Clinical trial endpoints define what success looks like, but patients and caregivers are rarely the ones setting that definition, and the gap between what trials measure and what patients actually value is showing up in post-approval evidence, regulatory submissions, and the design rooms where protocols are written.
In Episode 3 of The Human Side of Clinical Trials, hosts Brian S. McGowan, PhD, FACEHP, chief learning officer and co-founder of ArcheMedX, Inc., and Kelly Ritch, chief operating officer of ArcheMedX, Inc., speak with Jason Riis, PhD, CEO and chief behavioral scientist at Behavioralize, about why a well-written protocol doesn’t always translate into consistent execution, and how designing for the way people actually think and learn can reduce site burden and the need for costly unlearning.
In today’s ACT Brief, we examine what it will take to scale EHR-to-EDC connections for real-time trials, how the FDA is reimagining rare disease drug development, and why oncology real-world evidence still faces persistent data barriers.
