As your dedicated Clinical Trial Partner, we help sponsors access the R&D Tax Incentive (up to 43.5% rebate) while maintaining compliance and operational momentum.

International sponsors seeking to conduct clinical trials in Australia are required to either create a legal local entity or have a local CRO act as their local sponsor. We offer the full spectrum of guidance, support, and advocacy – whether you need advice on which path to take, support in setting up an Australian entity, or local trial sponsorship from an Australian CRO, our experts will help you navigate unfamiliar legal waters with ease.
For companies without an Australian entity—and who prefer not to establish one—Complete Phase offers local sponsorship to enable clinical trials in Australia. We assume regulatory and legal responsibility while managing TGA CTN/CTA submissions. With extensive Phase 1/2 experience, we deliver efficient, compliant studies and the confidence of a trusted partner.
To access Australia’s R&D Tax Incentive, companies must establish a local entity with at least one Australian-resident director. Complete Phase can act as your Local Director, guiding entity setup and ensuring compliance. Beyond governance, we also support regulatory submissions, enabling you to maximise tax benefits while running efficient, compliant clinical trials in Australia.
Through our trusted partners, we offer biotech and pharma companies complimentary R&D tax advice before study start, so you understand the process upfront. Once your clinical trial is underway, we connect you with experts to apply for and secure the R&D rebate—freeing up cash flow to reinvest and accelerate your trial in Australia.
Beyond meeting regulatory requirements, Complete Phase acts as a true local partner for biotech and pharma companies entering Australia. We bridge the gap between overseas sponsors, sites, and regulators, ensuring seamless communication and oversight. Our sponsorship model gives you a reliable presence on the ground to run clinical trials efficiently and compliantly.
Complete Phase is dedicated to helping small biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies worldwide experience the efficiency and financial advantages of the Australian context. Our goal, like yours, is to advance innovative life-saving products into new treatments. As your Clinical Trial Partner and local representative, we combine senior, hands-on leadership with agile execution—so your program launches faster, stays compliant, and captures maximum value from the Australian innovation ecosystem.
