 Services

  • Systematic Review

    Frame Research follows current best practices for systematic literature review, using prospectively-defined search strategies and study selection criteria. We apply our experience and rigor to produce data sets suitable for use in meta-analyses and peer-reviewed publications.

  • Therapeutic Landscape

    We apply a streamlined literature review process to gather evidence on broad disease settings or to characterize a landscape of available therapies. Our clients use the resulting evidence base for competitive intelligence assessments, clinical context for manuscripts, and post-marketing surveillance.

  • Rapid Review

    Searching the medical literature for studies that have already been conducted is a key step in evidence generation, even if a full systematic review is not in the cards. When a timely answer to a targeted question is needed, we help you round up the relevant evidence and summarize findings in an actionable format.
