PharmaVigilant Demystifies Clinical Trial Process Costs and Improves Access to Data by Offering Sponsors Complete Visibility

WESTBOROUGH, MA--(Marketwire - November 03, 2009) - Clinical research sponsors now have a faster, more cost-effective and comprehensive technology solution to manage their clinical trial data with PharmaVigilant, a clinical trial technology provider. PharmaVigilant is demystifying the clinical trial process by offering sponsors complete visibility and access into the collection and management of their clinical trial data.

Historically, clinical trial data collection and management are the costliest factors for pharmaceutical sponsors looking to bring new drugs to market safely and effectively. Additionally, having access to, and control of, clinical trial data can either be one of the most common hindrances or greatest advantages to getting a drug through the rigorous FDA approval process. With the emergence of PharmaVigilant, pharmaceutical sponsors now have greater access and control of their data, enabling them to isolate inefficiencies, achieve significant cost savings and increase time to market for their products.

According to Cathy Radovich, Director of Clinical Operations, QuatRx Pharmaceuticals, “When we set out to identify the best possible technology solution for our Phase II and III studies, we looked at several providers in the space and carefully evaluated our options. It came down to who we felt would be the best partner, with the most cost-effective solution for our needs. Working with PharmaVigilant has offered us far greater flexibility and creativity with our data than we’ve ever had before. Their data-on-demand feature allows us to customize reports at the click of a mouse without incurring any additional fees and the sites have raved about how fast and intuitive the user interface is. I see this as a long-term partnership that will carry us through the many phases of our work.”

“Our solution was designed to give sponsors direct visibility into the process behind building their clinical study and delivering their trial data so that any inefficiencies and wasteful costs have no place to hide,” said James DeSanti, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, PharmaVigilant. “Our hope is to disrupt the status quo of clinical trials and introduce a new way of doing things. Our cost-benefit to sponsors goes well beyond access to data -- we cut the time on site by almost 50 percent with our remote monitoring solution, resulting in substantial savings, and by utilizing our suite of products we help sponsors significantly eliminate bottlenecks and delays at all levels. With PharmaVigilant I am excited to be in a unique position to bring to market a solution that can truly shift the way sponsors have traditionally approached their technology partnerships.”
