2022 SCRS Site Solutions Summit: The Power of Clinical Trial Software

September 30, 2022 by

The 2022 SCRS Site Solutions Summit is nearly here! A big topic this year will be how the industry can continue to extend the reach of clinical trials to new patients and markets. Our continued sponsorship of this event reflects our commitment to improving site solutions through new products and services both now and in the future. 

Join us at Booth 507 for a demo of our transformative software and don’t forget to join us for these other site-focused discussions as well! 

Bringing Clinical Trials to More Patients 

We first want to extend an invitation to Master Workshop III: Innovative Site Models to Bring Clinical Trials to Patients in their Communities on Friday, October 7 at 2:00pm: 

The COVID-19 pandemic and the urgent push for vaccine development and deployment across the U.S. and globally demanded a paradigm shift in how the public and private sectors worked together in Operation Warp Speed to develop effective vaccines in a compressed timeframe. In addition, gaps in access to healthcare and clinical trials across the diverse U.S. landscape required a fundamental rethinking of existing healthcare and clinical trial delivery models.  

Jennifer Byrne, CEO and Founder of Javara, and Josh Rose, VP, Head of Clinical Trial Delivery and Strategy of CVS Health Clinical Trial Services, are leaders of two organizations that were at the forefront of pioneering new delivery models during the pandemic’s most turbulent period. They will be joined by Clare Grace, Chief Patient Officer, of leading global CRO, Parexel, to form an all-star panel to explore how they are now strategically leading initiatives including a Community Alliance Network to address delivering access to clinical trials-as-a-care-option to a wider and more diverse array of patients in the communities at the point-of-care where they access healthcare. The workshop panel will be moderated by Barry Lake, CEO & Co-Founder of Devana Solutions, a leading provider of cloud technology to connect clinical research professionals to clinicians and patients in their communities.

Similar to a focus group, this session will be facilitated by FOMAT Medical Research CEO, Nicholas Focil. Featured panelists include Devana Solutions CEO & Co-Founder Barry Lake, Donna Kostandy, Director, Alliance Unit, PPD, part of Thermo Fisher Scientific, Stacie Merritt, Director, Ascension St. John, Al Pacino II, President, HealthCarePoint, and Jean-Marc Tellier, Head, Office of Global Site Partnership, Sanofi.

Recap: 2021 SCRS Site Solutions Summit and Looking Ahead to 2022

October 12, 2021 by

The clinical trial industry is still abuzz after the amazing 2021 SCRS Site Solutions Summit in Hollywood, Florida. From the informative workshops and collaborative exhibit hall discussions to the receptions, everyone walked away with an enlightened perspective to push the clinical trial space forward. The team at Devana Solutions has assembled some of its thoughts and highlights from one of the industry’s biggest events of the year.

Devana Solutions CEO and Co-founder, Barry Lake, participated in several workshops and panels. He kicked off a Friday afternoon session with a discussion on the future of decentralized, patient-centric clinical trials with Irfan Khan, CEO of Circuit Clinical,

Paul Evans, CEO of Velocity Clinical Research, Jeff Kingsley, CEO of IACT Health & COO of hyperCORE, and Kristen Andrews, Senior Director, Labcorp Drug Development.

“This workshop brought together some of the sharpest minds and most accomplished professionals in the clinical trial industry to form a powerful ‘think tank’ to kick off our first day, and we had perspectives from both the site and Sponsor/CRO sides,” said Lake.

SCRS’ Site Solutions Summit is all about advancing the clinical trial industry forward, including advancements in purpose-built technology, such as Devana Solutions.

One technology-related panel discussion, of which Lake participated, also included RealTime CTMS’ CEO, Rick Greenfield. RealTime CTMS and Devana Solutions have a current API-integration, providing a multitude of benefits to their mutual clients. Lake and Greenfield both emphasized that “interoperability” of tech systems is fundamental to site success and ultimately, sponsor and CRO success.

“Technology, like what Devana Solutions offers, must meet the needs of all parties involved, from sites and CROs to sponsors,” Lake said. As this industry evolves, “there may never be a common platform utilized by the entire industry.”

While the workshops and panels offered incredible insight into where the clinical trial industry is headed, it was the open dialogue between all industry stakeholders that really laid the foundation for success.   

Devana Solutions’ Vice President of Operations, Linda Parks, met with several of our partners and acknowledged that the dialogue helps lead a mutual learning process. “Each conversation reveals more, and what we take away from SCRS’ Site Solutions Summit is invaluable. We enjoyed hearing from colleagues about the specific technology pain points that are preventing them from making data-backed end-to-end decisions to their clinical trial operations,” said Parks.

Director of Strategic Partnerships, Emily Wike, optimistically saw conference attendees step back and view their processes from a higher altitude. “The interest in Devana grows more with each conference. For those that just learned about Devana, their eyes were opened to a whole new way to manage their clinical trials,” said Wike.

While our out-of-the-box solutions are certainly beneficial, it’s Devana Solutions’ unique ability to customize its technology to each research organization’s specific needs and processes that is pivotal. “No research organization wants to be constrained during the study startup process, and they certainly shouldn’t be constrained by a technology forcing major process change,” said Shenefield.  “One-by-one, people who stopped by our booth were amazed at the level of customization that we provide as a partner, to unlock those key insights that shape better clinical trial business decisions,” said Shenefield.

At this year’s SCRS Site Solutions Summit, while our main focus was to bring about a positive shift in the clinical trial space, being face to face and sharing an occasional fist bump or handshake, was an overdue and welcomed experience.

If you stopped by our booth, you may have enjoyed a few of the fun activities we hosted, like meeting Devana, the Huntress, live and in the flesh.  

From left to right: Linda Parks, Lorraine Da Mata, Devana, Emily Wike, Roxanne Shenefield

Devana had quite a few friends stop to take photos with her, including Aspen Insights, LLC and Optimed Research.

Others stopped by our booth for a chance to win a Starbucks gift card through an archery contest; hit the bullseye and win! Devana Solutions helps research organizations stay on target, after all, and we witnessed some pretty decent marksmen.

Longtime friend of Devana Solutions and client-partner, Craig Koch of Velocity Clinical, took dead aim and nailed the bullseye.

Those who were new to the innovative Devana Solutions technology scheduled a demo at the booth. Wike summed up the reaction from demo participants, “I was told by many, after viewing a demo, that we caused them to rethink their current processes. The most common customer need discussed was around growing research organizations; they are simply too busy and growing too quickly to be able to manage their clinical trials in spreadsheets or other systems that are not clinical trials industry-specific. They were relieved to know that Devana existed as a solution.” 

Once the demos and exhibit hall fun came to an end, attendees migrated to the awards ceremony and dinner on Saturday night.

Devana Solutions would like to congratulate both Pfizer and PPD as the SCRS Eagle Award recipients as Sponsor and CRO of Choice, respectively, as well as the Christine K. Pierre Site Impact Award recipient, Michele Cameron, Director of Clinical Research, Clearwater Cardiovascular Consultants. We would also like to recognize industry veteran and HCA Healthcare’s VP of Research and Compliance, David Vulcano, and the contributions he has made to the clinical trial industry thus far and are excited to see the mark he makes as the new Honorary President of the Society for Clinical Research Sites.

Will we see you at the 2022 SCRS Site Solutions Summit? With plans already underway, next year’s Summit is to take place October 7th through 9th, with Site Symposiums starting on October 6th. We are already making our plans and we can’t wait to see you, once again!

“There is so much to benefit from attending the SCRS Site Solutions Summit, spending quality time and exchanging insights with our industry partners. Our team is already discussing how to make the 2022 Summit even better than the last,” said Lake.

But don’t wait until 2022 to talk to us!  and discuss your clinical trial data management pain points now. Let’s find a solution today!  Please reach out to us using the contact form below.

2021 SCRS Site Solutions Summit: Clinical Trial Data Management Success

September 29, 2021 by

The 2021 SCRS Site Solutions Summit is finally here! If you’re like our team, you’re probably packing up and heading to the Diplomat Beach Resort in Hollywood, Florida, for a great weekend of learning and networking to enhance your clinical trial operations. During most clinical research conferences, one of the most frequently discussed topics is data management. Many research organizations discover that they lack the proper tools for complete data analysis. The team at Devana Solutions wants to ensure that having the knowledge and tools to produce precise data is a big part of your SCRS Site Solutions Summit experience.

The Key to Comprehensive Clinical Trial Data Management

Did you know that approximately 70% of data is lost during the clinical trial process? This creates tremendous blind spots for all clinical trial stakeholders. This lack of visibility means that clinical trial executives are losing out on the advantages to make more targeted business decisions. Devana Solutions developed an end-to-end technology solution to satisfy your clinical trial data needs, and spending just 15 minutes looking at the platform will open your mind to new ways to manage critical data to ensure your organization is on the right track.

Discussing Clinical Trial Data Management

Aside from a demo of the Devana Solutions platform, there are three data-centric events at the SCRS Site Solutions Summit we’d like to put on your radar.

We first want to alert you to Master Workshop III, Position Your Site to Lead the Charge to the Future of Decentralized, Patient-centric Clinical Trials. The event takes place Friday, October 1st at 2:00 PM:

Devana Solutions CEO and Co-Founder Barry Lake, will lead an interactive discussion on the rapid evolution, spurred by the pandemic, towards a more decentralized, patient-centric approach to designing and executing clinical trials.

Joining Barry will be:
Irfan Khan, CEO of Circuit Clinical
Paul Evans, CEO of Velocity Clinical Research
Jeff Kingsley, CEO of IACT Health & COO of hyperCORE
Kristen Andrews, Senior Director, Labcorp Drug Development

The second event we recommend adding to your calendar occurs Saturday, October 2nd at 1:30 PM. This event is Breakout Session I, What We Really Want: Site & Patient Input for Vendors with Respect to Technology.

Similar to a focus group, this Breakout Session will collaboratively collect perspectives from the field to help impress future technology adoption and advancement.
Devana Solutions CEO and Co-Founder Barry Lake, will serve as one of the panelists alongside Mary Costello, Head of Site & Investigator Network, Medable, Inc.
The event will be facilitated by Doug Schantz, VP, Clinical Operations, Alexion Pharmaceuticals.
The third event swings specifically back to clinical trial data management. Breakout Session II, Trust-Building: Utilizing Your Data to Validate Your Site takes place Saturday, October 2nd at 3:00 PM.

This session will help you understand the data sources that sponsors and CROs are using to further validate your site and provide perspective on what kinds of data you should track and share to position your site for selection.

Devana Solutions CEO and Co-Founder Barry Lake, will facilitate the panel.
He will be joined by Kerry Gorman of IQVIA and Jeff Stein of Stamford Therapeutics Consortium.

Gain Hands-On Control of Clinical Trial Data Management with a Devana Solutions Demo

While you will be engaged in discussion and taking notes at the above sessions, the best way to see your expanded use of data is to view a demo from a leading clinical trial data management platform, like Devana Solutions.

Navigating through the Devana Solutions’ platform, you’ll find customized workflow automation and data around, but not limited to, these critical areas:
Business development
Feasibility and site selection
Contract and budget negotiations
Startup activities and timelines
Indication performance history
Site and investigator capabilities

Devana Solutions unlocks key data and provides complete visibility into all aspects of the clinical trial process, giving your research organization a competitive edge.
During this 15-minute demo, the Devana Solutions team will walk through each step of our customization process to ensure that you are capturing the key metrics specific to your organization – before and after the trial.

Interested in scheduling a demo before you arrive at the Summit? Connect with our team here, and add a Devana demo to your “to-do” list. Need a guide to other must-attend events? We’ve put that list together for you. See you at the SCRS Global Site Solutions Summit!

2021 SCRS Site Solutions Summit: Clinical Trial Data Management Demo

September 22, 2021 by

The SCRS Global Site Solutions Summit is quickly approaching, and the clinical research industry is eager to reunite, face to face, in Hollywood, Florida. While a great time will be had by all, we are most excited about making improvements in the clinical trial space. From sensational speakers to informative sessions and workshops, to the exhibitor booths, there is something for everyone at the Site Solutions Summit; and while there are many valuable events at the Summit, spending just 15 minutes at the Devana Solutions’ booth for a live demo of our innovative platform could result in a significant and positive impact on your research organization.

Here’s what you can gain from a 15-minute demo of the Devana Solutions’ platform.

Gain a Complete View of the Clinical Trial Data Stream

From initial trial lead through close-out, the amount of data to be analyzed can become overwhelming. Many research organizations only focus on analytics centered around active clinical trials and patient visits, but by doing so, they are missing out on critical data that can be used to their advantage.

Navigating through the Devana Solutions’ platform, you’ll find workflow automation and data around business development, feasibility and site selection, contract and budget negotiations, startup activities and timelines, indication performance history, site and investigator capabilities, and much more. Devana Solutions helps to unlock key data and provides complete visibility into all aspects of the clinical trial process, giving your research organization a competitive edge.

Utilize Clinical Trial Data to Make Better Business Decisions

Many technologies claim to track key data around the clinical trial process, but is this data relevant to your organization or only to the trial, itself? While we can agree that there is key data that all research organizations should be tracking at the trial level, what about an organization’s internal metrics around their unique processes? Devana Solutions works with each client to customize their platform to provide metrics that are specific to their organization, not just the trial. This is a different approach than other clinical trial technology solution providers take. By tailoring our robust platform to each client, based on their current processes and future goals, Devana’s clients are able to make more informed business decisions. When you participate in a Devana demo, we invite you to ask questions around your own needs and future goals so we can show you how Devana’s technology can bring your vision to life.

Experience New Efficiencies in the Clinical Trial Process

By tailoring Devana’s platform specifically to each research organization, our clients benefit from an unsurpassed level of workflow automation to increase their efficiency throughout multiple processes, whether they be relative to the trial itself or other organizational-specific processes. By streamlining these processes, Devana clients are able to save a significant amount of time and reduce or completely eliminate duplicate data-entry. During a Devana demo, you may start to question your current processes and that’s okay; that’s what we expect you to do. Challenge the status quo and ask yourself how Devana can help you streamline your processes and make the day-to-day a little less cumbersome.

Learn How Devana Solutions Integrates with Your Existing Software

While Devana Solutions is valuable as a standalone product to manage clinical trial startup activities and internal processes, it is complementary with other technology solutions that you may already be utilizing. Currently, Devana Solutions has a full integration with three of the major CTMS providers; RealTime CTMS, Clinical Research I.O. (CRIO), and Clinical Conductor.

Connecting these technologies allows research organizations to save time on study-build within the CTMS by reducing duplicate data entry for study teams. These integrations also provide real-time screening and enrollment metrics to be captured for robust analysis and reporting within Devana, offering a true end to end clinical trial operating system.

Aside from CTMS integrations, Devana also integrates with MailChimp, Tableau and Outlook and with an open API-structure, has the ability to do custom integrations for their clients. We welcome you to ask about integration possibilities during your Devana demo.

Here’s what some of the industry’s biggest names say about their success with Devana Solutions.

Meet our team

Stop by Booth 512, to meet a few of the Devana Solutions’ family, including our CEO and Co-founder, Barry Lake, Vice-President of Operations, Linda Parks,

Director of Customer Success, Roxanne Shenefield, Director of Strategic Partnerships, Emily Wike and Customer Success Specialist, Lorraine Da Mata.

Interested in scheduling a demo before you arrive at the Summit? Connect with our team here, and add a Devana demo to your “to-do” list. Need a guide to other must-attend events? We’ve put that list together for you. See you at the SCRS Site Solutions Summit!

    In Slavic mythology, our namesake, Devana, translates to the Goddess of the Hunt, a fitting moniker since the Devana Solutions platform helps your business track clinical trial data from a high-level and focus on your target. 

    Devana, the huntress herself, will be attending the Opening Reception on Friday. Devana is a rebel with a love of freedom and an obsession for the hunt. We channel her rebellious nature with our disruptive technology. We invite you to stop by booth 512 for a chance to meet Devana and snag a photo with her for your social accounts. We could use a little light-hearted fun while discussing the serious nature of our business, after all.  

    On Saturday, October 2, there will be additional registration opportunities for the Summit, a breakfast, and another SCRS welcome before a day full of events.  

    The first we are excited about is Breakout Session I, What We Really Want: Site & Patient Input for Vendors with Respect to Technology, taking place at 1:30 PM.  

    What We Really Want: Site & Patient Input for Vendors with Respect to Technology  

    This will be a great session, as it’s focused on where technology will take the clinical trials industry.  Sites and patients will share their hopes and expectations for technology providers in the clinical research space. Similar to a focus group, this Breakout Session will collaboratively collect perspectives from the field to help impress future technology adoption and advancement.  

    Devana Solutions CEO and Co-Founder, Barry Lake  will serve as one of the panelists, alongside Mary Costello, Head of Site & Investigator Network, Medable, Inc.  

    The event will be facilitated by Doug Schantz, VP, Clinical Operations, Alexion Pharmaceuticals. 

    Trust-Building: Utilizing Your Data to Validate Your Site  

    Breakout Session II Trust-Building: Utilizing Your Data to Validate Your Site, another event we are eagerly anticipating, takes place at 3:00 PM.  

    Devana Solutions CEO and Co-Founder, Barry Lake will facilitate the panel.  

    With sponsors and CROs seeking increased visibility into sites’ potential patient access, gone are the days when studies were awarded based on site feasibility forms or site selection visits alone. This session will help you understand the data sources that sponsors and CROs are using to further validate your site and provide perspective on what kinds of data you should track and share to position your site for selection.  

    Barry will be joined by Kerry Gorman, Director, Strategic Site Solutions, IQVIA and   

    Jeff Stein, President, Stamford Therapeutics Consortium.  

    As a 2021 Site Solutions Summit Premiere and Experience Sponsor, the entire Devana Solutions team is excited to see you at the SCRS Global Site Summit in Hollywood, Florida.
