Board-Certified Cardiologist (Clinical Trials Leadership)

Position Overview

Trial Access is seeking a board-certified Cardiologist to provide medical leadership and clinical expertise in cardiovascular clinical trials. The physician will be centrally involved in studies for new, cutting-edge treatments and medical devices related to the heart and vascular system. This includes trials focusing on conditions such as coronary artery disease (CAD), heart failure, complex arrhythmias, structural heart disease (for example, valvular disorders), hypertension, and novel lipid management therapies.

Key Responsibilities

• Clinical Trial Leadership: Lead and oversee complex clinical research studies related to cardiovascular disorders, including Phase I-IV trials for novel drugs, biologics, or medical devices (for example, stents, pacemakers, TAVR systems).
• Assessment and Safety: Assess patient eligibility against strict protocol criteria. Monitor patient safety, manage adverse events, and oversee the administration of study interventions throughout the trial lifecycle.
• Clinical Input: Provide expert cardiac clinical input for study design, implementation, and interpretation, including the review of cardiac imaging (echocardiograms, MRIs) and diagnostic tests (ECGs, stress tests).
• Collaboration: Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams including clinical research coordinators, nurses, biostatisticians, data managers, and regulatory affairs professionals to ensure high-quality execution.
• Regulatory Compliance: Ensure strict adherence to Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines, FDA, EMA, and other relevant international regulatory guidelines.
• Documentation and Reporting: Contribute to clinical trial protocol development, data interpretation, analysis, and preparation of final clinical study reports (CSRs). Maintain accurate and timely documentation of all clinical activities.
• Representation: Participate in investigator meetings and represent Trial Access and the research team to sponsors, institutional review boards (IRBs), and regulatory bodies.

Qualifications

• Education and Certification: Medical Doctor (MD) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) with board certification in Cardiology (required). Subspecialty certification (for example, Interventional Cardiology, Electrophysiology) is a significant advantage.
• Licensure: Valid and unrestricted Medical License to practice in the relevant jurisdiction (required).
• Experience: Proven experience in conducting industry-sponsored or investigator-initiated clinical research trials, preferably with exposure to cardiovascular therapeutics or medical devices.
• Skills: Demonstrated expertise in interpreting complex cardiac diagnostics. Excellent communication, leadership, and interpersonal skills. Strong knowledge of regulatory processes (GCP, ICH guidelines).
