High-Quality Translations

We have built a network of more than 2,000 translators, reviewers and subject matter experts. Each of which has been recruited, selected and approved by our Quality Control department.

All our language professionals are in-country native speakers. To be selected to work on a pharmaceutical or CRO project, translators must have:

  • a strong medical, pharmaceutical, scientific or clinical background in the specific therapeutic area,
  • experience working with the specific type of document

and they must demonstrate that they are up to date with the relevant regulations.

All translations are delivered with a Certificate of Translation (CoT).

CLINICAL TRIALS

Clinical trials are increasingly conducted on an international basis. There are many advantages to international trials, but they also generate additional challenges for the CRO.

You have to get your documents ready on-time for submission in each country, accurate in all languages, stored in a secure environment, with clear tracking and visibility of the work in progress.

Ubiqus can help you navigate these steps smoothly.

We provide all the services you need throughout the lifecycle of your study: from early stage to post-marketing phase. Furthermore, we can accommodate your specific requirements:

  • Target audiences: patient and professional content
  • Countries involved: extensive coverage of a range of language combinations
  • Therapeutic areas: experts in a range of therapeutic areas
  • Content types: Informed Consent Form (ICF), Protocol, Protocol Synopsis, Investigator Brochure, Patient Diary, Questionnaires, Regulatory Affairs and Ethics Committee Correspondence, Contracts, Serious Adverse Event (SAE) and more
  • Text adaptation: reworking medical texts for a lay audience
  • Formats: all editable formats, PDFs and handwritten documents

Our internal standard operating procedures combined with the latest technology ensure successful outcomes: your translation is in good hands.

regulatory affairs

REGULATORY AFFAIRS

We understand the importance of patient safety. For this reason, we ensure we have the regulatory and industry-specific knowledge to translate all your regulatory documents accurately and in compliance with regulatory agencies (FDA, EMA, …).

We regularly translate Product Information Leaflets (PILs), Labels, Packaging, Summaries of Product Characteristics (SPCs) and Regulatory Correspondence.

To meet the local regulatory standards, we comply with Quality Review Documents (QRD) template guidelines, as published by the EMA.

We also comply with the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) and Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines, as published by the ICH.

We use the latest technology to ensure that the client-specific style guides, templates and glossaries we create maximise quality, consistency and compliance.
