What is clinical affairs?

Clinical Affairs refers to the department or function within healthcare, medical device, or pharmaceutical organizations that manages clinical trials, regulatory compliance, and the collection of clinical data to support product approval and market access. Professionals in Clinical Affairs coordinate the planning, execution, and monitoring of clinical studies to ensure safety and efficacy standards are met. They also work closely with regulatory agencies to ensure all processes adhere to relevant laws and guidelines. This role is critical in bringing new medical products to market and maintaining ongoing compliance.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in clinical affairs, and why are they important?

To thrive in Clinical Affairs, you need a strong background in life sciences or healthcare, regulatory knowledge, and experience managing clinical trials, often supported by a relevant degree or certification such as a CCRP or RAC. Familiarity with clinical trial management systems (CTMS), electronic data capture (EDC) tools, and regulatory submission platforms is typical. Excellent organizational, problem-solving, and cross-functional communication skills set outstanding professionals apart in this field. These competencies are crucial for ensuring clinical studies are conducted ethically, efficiently, and in compliance with regulatory standards.

How does a clinical affairs professional typically collaborate with cross-functional teams during a clinical trial?

Clinical Affairs professionals work closely with regulatory, medical, and research teams throughout the lifecycle of a clinical trial. They are often responsible for ensuring that study protocols comply with regulatory requirements, coordinating with data management and biostatistics teams to monitor trial progress, and facilitating communication between investigators and sponsors. This role requires strong project management and interpersonal skills to align timelines, address challenges, and ensure the trial runs smoothly. Effective collaboration is essential for successful study outcomes and timely regulatory submissions.

Job Purpose

The Clinical Affairs Associate supports the CARE team's evidence generation work by assisting with the day-to-day coordination of clinical studies - study site communication, documentation, data collection, and preparation of regulatory-grade materials - and by supporting post-market surveillance (PMS) activities for IMMY's commercialized products. Working under the direction of the Clinical Affairs Lead and in close partnership with the Clinical Research Specialist, this role helps ensure clinical studies and PMS obligations stay organized, on track, and audit-ready, so the team can deliver the evidence that proves IMMY's diagnostics solve real clinical problems and continue performing safely in the field. This role also draws on a clinical research background to support clinical site monitoring, data monitoring, and study management activities as needed.


Key duties and responsibilities

Assist with day-to-day coordination of clinical studies, including tracking timelines, milestones, and deliverables, and flagging deviations to the Clinical Affairs Lead or Clinical Research Specialist.

Support clinical study site communication and onboarding - scheduling, correspondence, and distribution of study materials to investigators and site staff.

Support clinical site monitoring activities as needed, including scheduling and preparing for monitoring visits, reviewing source documentation, and helping verify data accuracy against case report forms (CRFs).

Assist with data collection, entry, and organization for clinical validation and post-market studies, supporting the Clinical Affairs Specialist's data quality checks.

Help prepare, organize, and format supporting documentation for regulatory submissions under the direction of the Clinical Affairs Lead.

Maintain and update study trackers, files, and clinical study management system records.

Support vendor and site logistics, including shipment of study supplies and collection of required documentation.

Help prepare materials and notes for Advisory Team meetings and communications with key opinion leaders (KOLs).

Conduct basic literature and background research to support study design and clinical value proposition work.

Any other duties as assigned.


Study Monitoring & Data Management Support (as needed):

Assist with or, as experience allows, independently conduct routine clinical site monitoring visits (on-site or remote) to check protocol compliance, informed consent documentation, and data quality.

Perform source data verification (SDV) against case report forms and help identify, document, and follow up on data discrepancies and monitoring visit findings.

Support study start-up activities such as site qualification and initiation visit preparation, and help draft monitoring visit reports and follow-up letters.

Track enrollment, data entry timelines, and query resolution across active studies, escalating risks to the Clinical Affairs Lead.


Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) Support:

Conduct ongoing literature searches and reviews for marketed products, screening for new clinical, safety, or performance data relevant to IMMY's PMS obligations.

Help compile and draft periodic PMS reports under the direction of the Clinical Affairs Lead and in coordination with Quality/Regulatory Affairs.

Support tracking of complaint, adverse event, and field performance trends alongside literature findings to help identify emerging signals for review.

Help maintain PMS plans, trackers, and supporting files so records stay current and audit-ready.

Monitor and help summarize updates to relevant regulatory and quality requirements (e.g., FDA, EU IVDR, ISO 13485, ISO 14971) that affect PMS activities, flagging changes to the Clinical Affairs Lead.

Assist with gathering and organizing inputs for periodic safety update reports and other PMS-related regulatory deliverables.

Clear written and verbal communication skills, including summarizing literature and data clearly for cross-functional stakeholders.

Working knowledge of Microsoft Office applications: Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook.

A proven track record of working collaboratively and being accountable.
