Technology
Since our inception more than 25 years ago, CROMSOURCE has embraced, developed, and invested heavily in technology relating to clinical research. This resulted in the formation of our associated company and wholly-owned subsidiary, Techorizon (www.techorizon.com).
The Clinical Research Technology
We believe that technological innovation is essential to streamline workflow, enhance decision making, and improve the quality and efficiency of clinical trials. By remaining at the forefront of creating and developing state-of-the-art technological solutions, our experts in Techorizon help us deliver more efficient services and allow our teams to work smarter and faster on your projects.
The CROMSOURCE platform delivers enhanced functionality in a fully integrated environment. From feasibility studies to final study reports, this platform offers many solutions for each stage of the clinical trial. By means of PC, tablet or smartphone, all services are securely accessed with the use of the most advanced encryption standards available on the web today.
FeRMI
The system that revolutionised the feasibility process for a clinical trial, FeRMI was the first 100% e-solution, featuring real-time data analysis.
Within this system, all aspects of the feasibility process are handled and tracked electronically and more efficiently. By adopting electronic data collection from potential research sites, data is immediately available 24/7 online on any device, anywhere via a secure Web connection.
FeRMI includes a powerful data analysis and reporting module, which can be run in real time to see trends and shape the scope of the feasibility process simultaneously while data is actively being collected from potential sites. Once data collection is complete, the analysis module can be used to evaluate recruitment projections and predicted timelines, as well as guide optimal country and site selection.
FeRMI has been central to our Feasibility Plus™ approach.
PIONEER – Clinical Trial Management System (CTMS)
PIONEER allows project teams to have greater oversight of clinical projects with planning modules and dashboard indicators, all designed to efficiently manage projects and ensure successful study completion.
PIONEER’s dashboard indicators can guide assignment of monitoring visits according to risk-based/adaptive monitoring strategies. For example, subject recruitment progress, protocol deviations, and monitoring visit planning, schedules, and completion are all managed within the PIONEER system. In addition, document tracking, site payment, and monitoring visit reporting are possible within PIONEER, minimising the requirement for additional trackers and planning documents.
PIONEER can integrate data from other sources, including eCRF, Interactive Voice/Web Response System (IXRS), electronic Patient Reported Outcome (ePRO), and safety database sources minimising manual data entry by project teams and maximising data accuracy and visibility. PIONEER is fully validated and fully compliant with 21 CFR Part 11.
PIONEER is customisable and flexible with real-time reporting capabilities, which enables project teams to capture and share crucial data in real time to ensure effective management and communication of project progress.
THeLearning
The advanced platform for delivering and documenting training of project teams and investigators and site staff. Within THeLearning everyone involved in a clinical project can find their own personalised training material and documentation. All activities performed on THeLearning platform are registered and training is certified via secure electronic signature. THeLearning can also manage Perpetual Training and handle Certification Programs required according to the regulatory needs of individual countries.
Customer Portal
At CROMSOURCE effective communication, collaboration and transparency are prioritised. Customer Portal provides the ultimate secure and accessible shared working area for our sponsors and project teams. Many collaborative features are provided to the team, from the collection and sharing of documents to study reporting as well as group email and event calendars.
THeCRF
We can provide our proprietary EDC platform, THeCRF, powered by Techorizon.
THeCRF is built from the experience of hundreds of Project Managers, Investigators and Monitors and provides efficient and timely acquisition of study data directly from Investigator sites via a secure Web-based application.
THeCRF combines an easy to navigate, intuitive environment which maximises site engagement and adherence to data entry with the capability to integrate seamlessly with applications such as IVRS and central laboratories. Central image / endpoint adjudication and detailed, customisable reporting are also features of the THeCRF solution.
THeDiary
In the clinical research setting, the use of the electronic diary is an effective solution for collecting patient data outside the hospital.
Moreover, patients are more engaged in clinical trials when they can play their role in research that could result in the treatment of their conditions.
We can provide our proprietary diary, THeDiary, powered by Techorizon. It electronically registers patient data and automates data entries on a handheld mobile device, tablet or computer. The Investigator can monitor the completion of patient diaries directly from THeCRF. In addition, the investigator can be alerted in cases where the values entered by patients indicate a critical issue for their health.
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is available as a configuration in THeDiary. The BYOD approach greatly reduces the cost of data collection and saves time for the patient.
Other EDC Solutions
According to our clients‘ needs and thanks to the experience gained with nearly 25 years in the industry we can also work with any other EDC system both currently on the market or developed by our clients.
