White paper: The next step to automating clinical trials

Document
Temperature management is critical when it comes to ensuring patient safety in clinical development, but we continue to use legacy point solutions that require heavy manual processes and duplication of data.
However, there are new solutions that digitize manual processes, resulting in reduced site burden, timely kit level data for study teams, and ensuring safe delivery right to the patient.

Automating Clinical Trials
“You can say that if you meet all the needs of clinical you would meet all the needs of commercial, but you can’t say the inverse - you can’t say that if you meet all commercial needs, you’d satisfy all the regulatory requirements of a clinical setting.”
So argues Evan Hahn, VP of TSS North America, making the point that perhaps we’re guilty of offering similar solutions for both clinical and commercial distribution streams when their requirements - although they share certain elements - are ultimately different.
Download this white paper where Evan Hahn, VP TSS North America, Tobias Holmer CPO at TSS, and Cat Hall, VP of Clinical Innovation and Quality at Endpoint Clinical discuss how automating Clinical Trials and tight technical integrations are key to increasing the rate of successful outcomes of clinical trials, while also speeding up the whole clinical process.

Can You Rely on the Results from Your Clinical Trials?
The success of a clinical trial depends on the reliability of its data. Many investigational drugs are sensitive to temperature, and any temperature deviation can affect their quality and, in the worst case, patient safety. Automated and integrated temperature monitoring solutions help secure data quality, support compliance, and speed up the delivery of new medicines to patients.

Data-driven supply chains: improving your excursion rate and temperature performance in 5 steps
Data is an essential requirement for improving supply chain processes. But that doesn’t mean that simply collecting more of it will instantly lead to reductions in waste, increases in efficiency and lower excursion rates. Taking a more targeted approach will help you turn supply chain data into insights that can help you understand exactly what is happening at every stage of your pharmaceutical supply chain.
