San Antonio, United States START Center for Cancer Research Full time
Job DescriptionJob DescriptionThe START Center for Cancer Research (“START”) is the world’s largest early phase site network, fully dedicated to oncology clinical research. Throughout our history, START has provided hope to cancer patients in global community practices by offering access to cutting edge trials throughout the US and Europe. Today, with over 1,300 studies completed, and with research facilities in the United States and in Spain, Portugal, and Ireland, START’s mission is to accelerate the development of new anticancer drugs that will improve the quality of life and survival for patients with cancer and lead to its eventual cure. To date, over 43 therapies conducted at START locations have obtained FDA/EMA approval. Incredibly, while Academic Medical Centers (AMCs) conduct 80% of cancer trials, such trials reach only 20% of the patient population – leaving the majority of patients who are treated in community practices and hospitals without access to a clinical trial when their care journey calls for one. START serves the many – by bringing cancer trials to physicians and their patients in community hospitals and practices when hope is needed most.

START represents the world’s largest roster of Principal Investigators (PIs) across its eight clinical trial sites. Committed to accelerating passage from trials to treatments, START delivers hope to patients, families, and physicians around the world. As an example, in San Antonio, where START was founded, START treated the first patient ever with Keytruda – the most effective cancer drug in medical history.

We are seeking an Administrative Research Assistant at our START San Antonio location. This role will assist the Clinical Research Coordinators in all tasks to support their roles. It will require an understanding of research terminology and basic protocol interpretation.

  • Provide support and information to onsite and remote monitors as necessary.
  • Comply with all applicable regulations, guidelines, and procedures pertaining to data loading, EDC systems, and clinical research.
  • Share responsibility with Data Coordinators to identify lab facilities and normal lab values used for assigned studies so that lab certifications can be requested for the study file.
  • Attend meetings regarding assigned studies as needed, including SIVs, Roster meetings and Forms Committee.
  • Communicate as needed with accounts receivable staff regarding transmitted data.

Education & Experience
  • High school diploma or equivalent.
  • Knowledge and training in general office administration skills, including computer applications, filing systems, etc.
  • Familiarity with medical terminology.
