But when a contractor advertises that they can do the job faster and cheaper than others (w/o any documentation why), should not one be suspicious that they are slime?
CSM was nothing more than a filler (a pharma that puts drugs into the final product). They claimed they could handle this in a trial setting faster and cheaper than adult CROs by some black magic.
They were a scam, and it was obvious there was nothing to be gained by using them other than to save a few bucks.
