Innovative eClinical Technologies and Services

As clinical trials grow in complexity and global scope, biopharmaceutical companies must continue to find new ways to streamline every part of the drug development process, including drug strategy analysis, early-phase testing, investigator selection, trial site initiation, patient recruitment, trial monitoring, clinical and drug supply logistics, and handling the growing volume of trial-related data.  Sponsors also need to make earlier – and more informed – decisions about their development portfolio to improve the success rate of products reaching later-stage trials.

Effective use of innovative eClinical technology – such as Clinical Trial Management Systems (CTMS), Randomization and Trial Supply Management (RTSM), Electronic Data Collection (EDC), electronic Patient Reported Outcomes (ePRO) systems, and medical imaging – is essential to achieving the efficiencies and cost reductions mandated by the current global biopharmaceutical marketplace.  By implementing advanced eClinical systems, biopharmaceutical companies are able to access the comprehensive data they need to reduce development costs, increase patient safety, support faster “Go/No-Go” decisions about potential new products, and accelerate time to market.  Equally important, integrated data from the various developmental processes provides a sponsor with a broad overview of a compound’s characteristics, which is vital for understanding product safety and efficacy. 

While eClinical technologies can deliver dramatic improvements in trial productivity and data accuracy, the biopharmaceutical industry must move beyond the gains provided by these individual systems if they are to achieve the cost and time savings that are necessary for their future success.  The next level of clinical technology requires integrated data systems throughout the clinical enterprise – combined with innovative clinical services – to create a new operating model that increases efficiency across the development spectrum.  This combination of advanced technology and expert services is essential to support the key trends in clinical development, such as: increasing emphasis on early-phase testing to better predict product safety and efficacy; larger, multinational Phase III trials; and more expansive Phase IV trials to accommodate growing regulatory requirements for data on long-term product safety and comparative effectiveness research.
