Critical Requirements In Sourcing Comparator Drugs

Throughout the clinical supply chain, the logistics involved in sourcing comparator drugs, managing clinical trial supplies, maintaining precise temperature requirements and coordinating transport and storage has grown increasingly complex – and has only been exacerbated by the impact of COVID-19.

Sourcing comparator drugs and co-therapies can result in substantial delays and increased study cycle time. Planning and managing decentralized global sourcing activity poses logistical challenges — particularly with comparator drugs and co-therapies requiring strictly specified storage and shipping requirements.
