REAL-TIME ACCESS TO CLINICAL TRIAL DATA

Preclarus®, our comprehensive data solution, provides real-time access to the vast quantity of clinical trial operations and subject data produced in vaccine studies. Our Preclarus solution enables:

Collection of subject-level data, which facilitates real-time feedback on safety and immunogenicity measures and direct communication of key study assessments

Less frequent on-site monitoring visits and a remote monitoring approach with a customizable plan drive by continuous site-level risk assessment

An integrated technology platform that links data across sites and laboratories

Development of eSource solutions for sites, allowing for more immediate access to source documentation and facilitating remote source verification

TARGETED HIGH-QUALITY MONITORING STRATEGIES TAILORED TO VACCINE STUDIES


We leverage the Preclarus platform as part of our approach to risk-based monitoring to create a customized profile of subjects across a wide range of clinical laboratory findings and to review safety trends for vaccine reactogenicity, labs and toxicity gradings. We share this data with you to inform early phase research and dose escalation meetings.

We create study-specific, risk-based monitoring plans based on key site performance indicators. This proprietary method allows CRAs to maximize their time on-site and focus holistically on site performance. This approach provides cost savings in conjunction with quality data.
