TrialNetworks, Part Of DrugDev, Adds Visual Intelligence To Award-Winning Clinical Trial Optimization System

TrialNetworks Charting app analyzes data from integrated clinical systems to provide study teams with dynamic charts displaying performance metrics and progress toward goals by region, country and site

The award-winning Clinical Trial Optimization System from TrialNetworks, now part of DrugDev, continues to innovate with the introduction of its latest app. TrialNetworks Charting provides sponsors and CROs with visual intelligence into the study’s progress toward goals by region, country and site.

Charting automatically integrates data from external clinical systems (e.g. IXRS, CTMS, EDC) with operational metrics captured by the TrialNetworks platform (e.g. site activation status, final patient visit dates) to analyze performance over time and compared to plan. This level of insight enables study teams to quickly identify trends, make actionable recommendations and provide executive management with clear reports without spending time consolidating disparate and inconsistent spreadsheets.

Eric Silberstein, President of TrialNetworks, said, “The idea behind Charting started when our customers pointed out that we were already aggregating most of the information they use to track trial progress. Clinops team members suggested that a flexible charting capability would not only free them from manually assembling reports and charts in spreadsheets but would also let them make faster decisions. Charting enables these teams to generate visual reports using data from various systems in a matter of seconds. They can then use these reports as high-level status updates or segment them by region, country and site to review detailed performance trends.”

Charting will be included as an app within the TrialNetworks platform, which was awarded “Disruptive Technology of the Year” by Partnerships in Clinical Trials 2014. Charting data are easily exported into various formats and configured charts can be saved and shared among study team members.

Said Ibs Mahmood, DrugDev CEO, “We decided to acquire TrialNetworks because the platform makes running a clinical trial easier. I’m excited for customers to experience the new Charting app as it fits seamlessly into the platform and provides yet another level of efficient management for sponsor-site collaboration. As sponsors move to widespread deployment of TrialNetworks, senior clinical operations executives will be able to visualize all their trials through Charting yielding better insight and faster decision making.”
