Hanover, MD, October 14, 2019 – The Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS) announced to over 1,000 attendees at their 2019 Global Site Solutions Summit that Pfizer is the winning sponsor, and Syneos Health (formerly INC Research/inVentiv Health) is the winning CRO of the 2019 SCRS Eagle Award.
Sponsored by Trifecta Clinical, the SCRS Eagle Award has been awarded annually since 2009 to recognize the sponsor and CRO that are most dedicated to outstanding leadership, professionalism, integrity, operational excellence and a commitment to advancing the clinical research profession through strong site partnerships.

“Winning the Eagle Award is a significant accomplishment,” said SCRS president Casey Orvin. “It demonstrates the site community’s recognition of the hard work, dedication and commitment to strong site partnerships that these organizations have established. Congratulations to Pfizer for winning the Sponsor Eagle Award, and to Syneos Health for winning the CRO Eagle Award for the third year in a row!”
In addition to Pfizer, this year’s sponsor finalists for the Eagle Award were AstraZeneca, Lilly, Novo Nordisk and Roche.
Joining Syneos Health, this year’s CRO Eagle Award finalists were Covance, ICON plc, IQVIA and PRA Health Sciences.
