Medidata Solutions and INC Research Reach Milestone
(Wireless News Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)
Medidata Solutions, a global provider of electronic clinical data
capture (EDC), management and reporting solutions, and INC Research, a
therapeutically-focused contract research organization (CRO) with a
process for delivering reliable results, announced their one-year
ASPire to Win partnership milestone.
In addition to INC Research s experience offering eClinical solutions
to its customers, keys to the success of this partnership include
Medidata Rave s fast and easy deployment capabilities, robust reporting
tools and ability to handle any size global study.
Since November 2006, INC Research has implemented Medidata Rave in 23
studies for 14 sponsors, across Phases I IV and in a range of
categories including CNS, pediatrics, oncology and infectious disease.
Medidata Rave has been deployed to manage trials of all sizes, from
three to 1,000 participants, and in global locations including Asia,
Europe and South America. The partnership has also yielded 15
Rave-certified study builders within INC Research s clinical
programming and data management team in the U.S. and Europe. With these
certifications, INC Research can independently build and maintain
studies in Rave and easily deploy Rave at the site level.
Medidata Rave plays an integral role in INC Research s Trusted Process,
which is its four-phased approach to proactively lead customers through
their drug and device development programs with repeatable and
measurable methodology. Rave helps ensure predictably dependable
outcomes and actionable results by increasing efficiency, decreasing
time to trial completion and maintaining clean data in the system at
all times.
With Rave as part of our Trusted Process, we are able to launch
Rave-enabled studies quickly and efficiently and provide our customers
with a modern, flexible and single system for EDC and CDMS, said
Alistair Macdonald, senior vice president of data services for INC
Research. In addition to easy deployment, Medidata Rave can run very
complicated studies faster than any other system available today.
Moreover, sites are clearly very comfortable working with the Medidata
Rave platform, and data managers benefit from access to data in real
time with Rave s built-in reporting tools, providing insight throughout
trials.
In addition to Rave, INC Research has also been impressed with Medidata
s services and support teams.
Medidata s work ethic aligns with ours through open communication,
rapid response to our questions, and focus on customer care and
management. We appreciate that Medidata continually strives to deliver
on time and exceed our expectations. We look forward to the next phase
of our relationship, which includes influencing product development
based on market trends, said Macdonald.
INC Research is an industry leader in its approach to EDC, and the
clear investment in Rave knowledge transfer across its clinical and
data services organizations will help streamline clinical processes for
customers worldwide, said Tarek Sherif, CEO of Medidata Solutions.
