PROPEL

Accelerate the Clinical Trial Process

August 23, 2023 by

Clinical trials are essential for advancing medical research and bringing new treatments to patients. However, the complexity involved in organizing and managing these trials can often result in delays and inefficiencies. To overcome these challenges and accelerate the clinical trial process, it is crucial to focus on streamlining efficiency and collaboration among the multiple teams and tools involved.

Purpose-built specifically for the clinical trial industry, PROPEL empowers organizations to manage the entire clinical trial process easily and efficiently – from pipeline and study startup through trial completion and analysis.

Pipeline Management 

PROPEL offers a robust platform for pipeline management, allowing Business Development team members to easily input and track new trial opportunities from both CROs and sponsors. By logging calls and emails related to these opportunities, PROPEL provides a comprehensive overview of touchpoints and progress. This not only streamlines the process but also improves visibility for leadership and other team members. 

With PROPEL’s powerful dashboards and data management, users can quickly create custom reports and data visualizations to share with key stakeholders. Easily break down past and current trial statistics by indication, site, investigator, and beyond. This powerful data analysis can help your organization win more trial opportunities by showing both historic successes and real-time insights into currently running trials.  

Site Selection and Feasibility 

Selecting the correct sites for any given trial is an important step of the process. You want to ensure the best possible outcome in terms of enrollment, timing, and overall results. PROPEL’s precision query feature allows you to select the most appropriate sites based on both site and investigator criteria, including capabilities, equipment, therapeutic specialties, and more. Once the best sites have been selected, you can send the trial opportunity directly within the platform and receive real-time responses in return. PROPEL’s threaded chat conversations allow central and site-based teams to correspond back and forth – eliminating the need for follow-up calls or emails to field questions and share documents. As sites respond to opportunities and begin the pre-award process, PROPEL automatically records their responses and turnaround timing metrics.  

PROPEL Pre-Award Trialstones 

As the pre-award process begins, PROPEL tracks site milestones as they progress through the stages. Using PROPEL’s Survey Feature, Feasibility team members can create and distribute pre-feasibility and other types of surveys to sites. Once sent, they have real-time visibility into who has completed a survey, who hasn’t, and those who stopped midway. Monitor responses and send custom reminder alerts to prompt sites to complete open surveys. Based on responses, trials can continue to progress at the most suitable sites. 

Study Startup 

Once a trial is awarded to a site, PROPEL makes it easy to follow their progress with improved trial management and monitoring. Track site activity and key post-award milestones including contract, budget, and regulatory stages as sites progress through the study startup process. Central team members can assign custom tasks and alerts to specific users to keep things moving smoothly whenever they see a slowdown or bottleneck.  

To reduce headaches and improve workflow, PROPEL keeps all trial-related documents and communication in one place. Documents such as budget and protocol amendments can be attached to specific trials or site activity records, and central team members can send out updates and alerts directly within the system. Real-time collaboration between central operations and site-based staff is made easy using PROPEL’s chat feed or linked email correspondence. Keep everyone in the loop on the latest updates while also making communication trackable and reportable.  

Screening and Enrollment 

PROPEL Enrollment Dashboard 

Upon site activation and the beginning of patient enrollment, PROPEL continues to track progress by integrating with the leading CTMS solutions to monitor site enrollment. PROPEL works in conjunction with your preferred CTMS to eliminate duplicate data entry and provide total trial oversight. Operations and Enrollment team members can monitor enrollment progress across all sites and trials in real time to see which are enrolling successfully and which are struggling. And unlike using a CTMS alone, PROPEL allows you to drill down into specific metrics with powerful reporting by trial, site, or organization. 

Performance Insights 

Throughout the clinical trial process, PROPEL captures real-time metrics every step of the way, providing full-cycle, wrap-around performance insights and data analytics. Using customizable reports and dashboards, users gain powerful insights into turnaround timing, enrollment progress, and overall performance.  

After a trial is completed, PROPEL enables central operations and leadership teams to dig into past performance to help with future projections and predictions. Report on historical enrollment performance segmented by indication, contract percentage, and other trial characteristics. Use these insights to make future decisions during site selection and share them with CROs and sponsors to help win more trial opportunities.   

Experience time and cost savings, improved efficiency, increased productivity, and full performance transparency throughout the entire clinical trial process with PROPEL. Schedule a personalized demo today to learn how your organization can streamline processes and secure more of the right opportunities.

New PROPEL Survey Feature

August 11, 2023 by

In the fast-paced world of clinical trials, feasibility surveys have become a crucial step in the process. These surveys help researchers determine the viability of their trials and ensure that all the necessary resources and capabilities are in place. However, it is important to recognize that surveys have the potential to be powerful tools in various other aspects of clinical research. Building relationships, understanding site capabilities, and gathering feedback are just a few of the areas where surveys can prove to be invaluable. 

Surveys are an incredibly powerful tool, allowing researchers to collect feedback and insights from a wide range of recipients. Whether it’s gathering information from sites within your network, potential vendors, patients, or investigators, surveys can provide valuable data that can inform important decisions. 

PROPEL Enterprise’s new Survey Feature is an exciting development for the clinical trial industry. With this innovative tool, researchers can create and distribute surveys directly within the platform, reaching a large audience and gaining valuable data in a streamlined and efficient manner. 

How It Works

Quickly create and send surveys directly within PROPEL to LYNK users or external email lists. Use pre-built templates, import existing questions, or create a survey from scratch with PROPEL’s easy-to-use interface. For ease of tracking, you can also associate your survey with a specific trial, contact, or account. 

Once a survey is sent, PROPEL will automatically collect all timing and response data in one place for easy monitoring and reporting – giving you real-time visibility into who has completed a survey, who hasn’t, and who stopped part-way through. But the feature doesn’t stop there – eliminate endless follow-up emails with automated alerts and reminders. 

Instead of relying on multiple programs and websites to send and track surveys, PROPEL provides a closed-loop system allowing you to make surveys, send them out, and to get in-depth analytics on responses and timing.  

For Any Kind of Survey

PROPEL’s new feature aims to transform and streamline the survey process – from feasibility and CSAT to PI onboarding, equipment management, and beyond! Surveys can be as general or specific as you want and for any use case under the sun. Want to know what kind of studies sites are looking for?

PROPEL Spring ’23 Update

May 26, 2023 by

Get ready for an exhilarating update to PROPEL! The Spring ’23 Update brings a plethora of enhancements, refinements, and additions to the platform designed to improve and streamline the user experience system wide with a heavy focus on Trials and Trial Management.  

PROPEL’s latest release is all about optimizing glanceability and improving workflows while prioritizing the information that means the most, from harmonized field names to a new glossary for credentials and the release of Trialstones. The theme underlining the entire release can be summed up as “Trials” – which have been given a complete makeover, including new Trialstones, streamlined tabs and fields, and a progress bar to keep track of trial status. 

What’s New? 

The user interface (UI) has been updated and enhanced across several areas of the platform so everything can be quickly absorbed at a glance. A key part of the updated UI is the new progress bar, which clearly shows what stage a trial is currently in. New, more visually compelling monitoring tiles have replaced checklists in various places, making content more scannable and insights digestible. See below for a look at the new real-time progress bar and pre-award Trialstones tiles.  

PROPEL Trial page with new progress bar and pre-award Trialstones.

What’s a Trialstone, you ask? Pre- and post-award trial milestones are now known as Trialstones throughout the platform. When sites complete Trialstones such as CDA Executed or PSV Complete, this information will be updated across the system – including advancing the trial stage in the new progress bar. Users can track and manage Trialstones directly from any trial page within PROPEL for improved workflows. With the new update, Trialstones can also be updated for multiple sites at once to save time.  

Another great new feature coming in this update is that trials can now be marked as high priority. Making a trial high priority adds a red star to the list view, clearly calling out trials which have been flagged. This new feature allows central team users to delineate which opportunities and trials sites should focus on first. 

We’ve only covered some of the broader highlights, but the Spring 2023 Update brings a lot of exciting new quality of life changes to PROPEL and LYNK. Full release notes and training materials have already been made available to our existing partner-clients. If you’re interested in learning more, please contact us today and we’d be happy to give you a demo of our game-changing platform.

Accelerate Study Cycle Times with Clinical Trial Software for CROs

April 27, 2023 by

In our post-pandemic world, contract research organizations (CROs) face more challenges than ever. With greater competition, market consolidation, and a growing emphasis on site empowerment, the CRO market is in a state of flux. Only those willing to be flexible as they apply learnings from the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath are likely to come out ahead.   

One of the key takeaways from the COVID-19 pandemic applied throughout the clinical trial industry is to invest in mission-critical technology. Devana Solutions’ category-defining PROPEL platform offers improved site selection, real-time communication, and site collaboration. PROPEL provides process and performance transparency while automating workflows, accelerating cycle times, and reducing the overall workload for CROs and sites. 

Improved Site Selection 

PROPEL Site Query Functionality

CROs have long relied on manual, time-consuming processes to identify the most suitable sites for new clinical trials. With PROPEL, we’ve eliminated this outdated approach. 

PROPEL enables CROs to perform targeted queries to determine suitable sites for new trials. Find the most effective sites in real-time by digitally querying site capabilities based on therapeutic expertise, physical site facilities, investigator and staff certifications, and more. PROPEL automatically stores site and investigator performance and capabilities data to share with sponsors or use for future trials.  

With PROPEL, CROs can be confident in the sites they’ve selected when reporting back to sponsors with progress updates. 

Real-Time Collaboration 

When you have a clinical trial underway, it’s important to have a tool that makes it easy for you to share information with sites—and receive real-time responses. 

Forget endless follow-up emails, calls, and meetings. Instead, push out mass communications or individually tag relevant users or site teams, alerting them of new trial opportunities, updates, or queries. PROPEL’s threaded chat conversations allow CROs and sites to pose questions, share documents, and provide updates. Real-time feedback from sites, such as if there are too many inclusion/exclusion criteria or more realistic estimates for patient enrollment, can help CROs with sponsor bid defenses. Sites can also ask questions and share documents via the same channels—keeping everyone in the loop throughout the entire clinical trial process.  

With PROPEL, CROs also gain insights into other site organizations already using PROPEL, including two of the largest site networks and the largest site organization in the world. 

Performance Transparency 

 

PROPEL Site Activity Dashboard

When running clinical trials, you need to be able to track and analyze current and historical metrics. This is where PROPEL comes in. 

Tracking current and historical trial metrics with PROPEL’s dashboards and reports can help CROs win more sponsor bid defenses by quantifying past successes and showcasing real-time updates for trials currently running. Key data generated throughout the clinical trial process is automatically stored within PROPEL and can be accessed via custom reports and visualizations whenever needed. Know exactly how a trial progresses from site selection to completion with real-time data capture and analysis. Identify bottlenecks in terms of site responses, patient enrollment, and more so you can step in and provide targeted support where needed.  

Sharing the latest data anytime with stakeholders and sponsors is critical to accelerating cycle times and mitigating bottlenecks and risks.
