Precise and appropriate use of terminology is the key component of observational and interventional clinical trial translations. Language translation has a huge role to play, both pre- and post-trial. Designing, implementing, and reporting on clinical trial programmes requires in-depth knowledge of how different terms are combined to create technical content. Clinical trial papers and guidance documents often involve a blend of medical, statistical, and administrative terms. Such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) document Guidance for Use of Bayesian Statistics in Medical Device Clinical Trials. Our expertise, commitment to producing materials of the highest quality, and fast turnaround service enable us to provide support to our clients whenever they need it.
The globalisation of clinical trials is a trend that presents one of the biggest challenges in clinical research. The differences between global regulatory systems for ICH countries such as the United States and non-ICH countries like China and India can significantly affect total spending and affect research outcomes. There are variations in trial protocols and patient follow-up practices for instance. Diversity is another major challenge. Patient and doctor behaviours and beliefs vary considerably across continents. Cultural values, social differences, and semantics all affect behaviours. We take all the influencing factors into account when producing translations. An incorrect or culturally bankrupt translation of a patient information brochure can have far-reaching medical and legal consequences for pharmaceutical companies, doctors, and patients. The worst-case scenario is patient fatality. We support our clients by keeping ourselves informed of and being sensitive to, current key issues and challenges involved in conducting global clinical trials. Our expertise, coupled with pioneering memory translation software, enables us to give our clients a first-class, cost-effective service. As we create your materials, the software selects repeated content and saves it for future use, which means you never pay for a translation twice.

I recently used Absolute Translations for a email translation that required urgent attention, and they delivered the work quickly and efficiently, which I really appreciated. However, I found their pricing to be a bit on the higher side — there’s definitely room for improvement in that area. Overall, great for fast service, but the cost could be more competitive.
