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 With PROPEL, we’ve eliminated this outdated approach.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.

Improve Study Outcomes with Clinical Trial Software for CROs

The relationship between sponsors and contract research organizations (CROs) is strengthening as outsourcing becomes a clinical trial norm. It is important for the CRO to have a good working relationship with sites in order to ensure that the trial is successful, particularly in the study startup phase, as clinical trials are increasingly expensive and time-consuming endeavors.

Key factors that influence a good relationship and where clinical trial software can help are:

  • Targeted Site Selection
  • Digitized Feasibility
  • Enhanced Site Collaboration and Communication
  • Process and Performance Transparency

Targeted Site Selection

More complex protocols require more precise site selection. Devana’s PROPEL technology allows for CROs to perform automated queries during site selection to determine the right sites or investigators based on the requirements of the protocol. PROPEL allows CROs to store the site and investigator performance and capabilities data that can be managed and updated by the sites, in real-time, allowing for more accurate site selection. Sponsors can be confident that the sites selected by the CRO will be capable of meeting performance expectations, resulting in better study outcomes.

Digitized Feasibility

While feasibility questionnaires are certainly a critical piece to selecting the right sites for a trial, the entire process, as it is today, is a bit archaic. Devana is revolutionizing the feasibility process by allowing CROs to submit a digitized feasibility to the sites selected for each trial. Say goodbye to outdated PDFs and third-party websites. This digital feasibility will pre-populate information that typically remains the same, trial to trial, such as the site’s location and contact information, but allows for the CROs to receive new, trial-specific data such as subject population criteria. The sites can review their previously submitted data for accuracy and respond to any new inquiries, resulting in a speedier feasibility process and a lower cost for the Sponsor.

Enhanced Site Collaboration and Communication

In addition to improving the feasibility process, Devana took it a step further by creating a threaded communication feed between the sites and CROs within the PROPEL platform. If a Sponsor reaches out to a CRO about a trial in bid-defense, needing to quickly know the potential subject pool for a particular indication, the CRO can instantly push out a mass communication to the sites and gather their responses within the platform. No more cumbersome calls or emails to track. Just the same, if a CRO submits a site for a trial, the site can review the details and provide feedback to the CRO or ask questions related to the protocol. It’s a win-win for all involved, the site, the CRO and the Sponsor, since this connectivity allows for more efficient communication throughout the entire clinical trial process.

Process and Performance Transparency

Another important aspect of a good working relationship between Sponsors and CROs is process and performance transparency. The entire clinical trial process, from study startup through close-out, produces a lot of key data. By using PROPEL, CROs have real-time views into the trial, by site, to know exactly where the trial is at any given time. The ability to quickly obtain this data and provide to Sponsors is critical to the swift and successful execution of a trial and the ability to mitigate risk.
