Client Testimonial
MERIT was a very valuable partner in our phase 2/3 program as the central spirometry vendor. The oversight they provided to this important component of the program was a key factor in its success. To not use a vendor such as MERIT in a large respiratory program would make executing the studies much more difficult and greatly limit our confidence in the spirometry data.
