Atlanta Institute for Medical Research was incorporated in 2002 as an independent clinical research firm specializing in critical care, infectious disease, pulmonary, and cardiology trials. Over its first dozen years the firm successfully completed more than 150 clinical trials, negotiated more than $5M in sponsor contracts, and passed an FDA audit with no findings. The portfolio below merges a current ClinicalTrials.gov pull (70 verified NCTs) with 36 additional protocols documented in AIM's authoritative study list that predate the September-2007 FDAAA registration mandate or do not resolve to a current CT.gov record. A separate section covers studies conducted through the NIH-funded Antibacterial Resistance Leadership Group (ARLG), coordinated by Duke University.
Lead sponsors across the full portfolio include Bristol-Myers Squibb (apixaban/Eliquis — ARISTOTLE and AMPLIFY), Eli Lilly (tadalafil/Adcirca — PHIRST-1; drotrecogin/Xigris), GSK (Advair/Ariflo/Lovaza; SFA103153 asthma), Gilead (ambrisentan/Letairis), Pfizer (sitaxsentan/Thelin; dalteparin; A7331009), Roche (baloxavir/Xofluza), AstraZeneca (Symbicort; roflumilast), Johnson & Johnson, Takeda (TAK-242 sepsis), Novartis (vildagliptin), Abbott Nutrition (NOURISH), Cubist/Merck (daptomycin/Cubicin), Basilea (ceftobiprole), Theravance (telavancin), Sunovion (eszopiclone/Lunesta — DREAMDD), KCI (Vacuum Assisted Closure), Angiotech, Boehringer Ingelheim, Astellas, Epix, Encysive, Eisai, Optimer (fidaxomicin), BioCryst (peramivir), Duke University, and NIAID (NIH).
