ABOUT US
Cevaxin is a medical research center conducting clinical and epidemiological trials. Since its foundation in 2013 in the Republic of Panama, it has implemented and conducted numerous studies, offering innovative solutions and standardized processes to achieve high scientific quality results.
Clinical, epidemiological and public health studies cover all types of vaccine-preventable diseases (Poliomyelitis, Dengue, Respiratory Syncytial Virus, zoster, norovirus, pneumococcus, hepatitis A, meningitis, pertussis, Chikungunya, COVID-19, among others). They are conducted in all clinical phases under the approval of the National Ethics Committees and the endorsement of the Ministry of Health.
This has been possible thanks to our extensive experience but, above all, to the more than 21,400 volunteers who, with their interest in contributing to the advancement of science, have helped us generate relevant information to combat diseases and build a legacy that will last for future generations.
