MUMBAI, India, April 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- SIRO Clinpharm, a leading Contract Research Organization (CRO) based out of India and Western and Central Eastern Europe, today announced the start of their operations in Malaysia thus expanding reach in the Asian continent.  

Earlier in 2010, SIRO had announced strategic alliances with CROs in South Korea and Taiwan.  "Malaysia is a highly developed and fast growing clinical trials destination and we are extremely proud to be one of the first India headquartered CROs to announce its operations," said Rajendra Talele, Vice President – Clinical Operations, Asia. "Our first phase of service offerings will encompass clinical monitoring and project management activities."

"SIRO began India operations back in 1996 and that makes us one of India's most experienced CROs," said Chetan Tamhankar PhD, Chief Executive Officer of SIRO.
