Chicago (PRWEB) March 3, 2009 -- ClearTrial (www.cleartrial.com), a leading provider of clinical trial software for clinical trial operations planning, budgeting, and outsourcing, announced today that it has released version 2.7 of its market-leading ClearTrial clinical trial software, which helps biopharmaceutical companies and clinical research organizations (CROs) accelerate and improve the planning and execution of their clinical trials. Today, 6 of the top 10 biotech companies and many of the largest companies in the industry rely on ClearTrial software to bring quality treatments to market faster, with less cost and effort.
With ClearTrial Portfolio Planning, available in the Enterprise Edition of ClearTrial v2.7, clinical development organizations can now roll up protocol-level study plans into portfolio-level forecasts in minutes, providing instant visibility to monthly budgets, monthly resource demand, and timelines across a program, business unit, therapeutic indication, region, service provider or any other dimension - a capability unique to the industry. And when protocol-level assumptions change, the software automatically updates the portfolio forecast in seconds.
With ClearTrial Portfolio Planning, clinical trial professionals can:
• Aggregate multiple studies into a program/portfolio view or long-range plan
• Generate comprehensive monthly budget, resource, and timeline reports
• Add or remove studies from a portfolio
• Modify study start dates
• Adjust study probabilities
"ClearTrial Portfolio Planning gives life sciences companies a lightning-fast and more informed portfolio and program decision-making capability that presents a major competitive advantage, especially in today's economic climate," noted Mike Soenen, Managing Partner of ClearTrial. "The pressure to move faster with fewer resources has never been greater and with Portfolio Planning, ClearTrial is again first in class to answer that challenge."
Key Benefits of ClearTrial Portfolio Planning
For clinical operations, outsourcing, finance, and project/resource management professionals at life sciences organizations, ClearTrial Portfolio Planning offers:
Integrated Roll-up for Increased Accuracy and Speed - The software eliminates errors in the time-consuming re-keying involved with manually rolling up multiple study plans into program- or company-wide forecasts. ClearTrial Portfolio Planning also ensures that planners are using the most current information by automatically updating the portfolio forecast with any changes made to the protocol-level assumptions.
Effortless Cost and Resource Demand Forecasting Across the Organization - Monthly cost and resource demand forecasts enable companies to easily identify areas of heavy FTE utilization, and more proactively hire or contract for additional resources - or modify study start dates to smooth out resource utilization. Planners can instantly see the budget and resource impact of dropping or delaying a study or group of studies, immediately assess the result on hours and fees, by month, of outsourcing all monitoring, and more.
Flexibility to Support Business Objectives and Processes - ClearTrial Portfolio Planning enables the creation of portfolios along any clinical development dimension to:
• Compare portfolios for multiple long-range planning scenarios
• Assign probability weighting to in-licensing and out-licensing deals
• Accurately model later-stage studies that are dependent on early study success for more accurate stage-gate decision-making
• Assess program-level outsourcing strategies
"With version 2.7, ClearTrial continues to set the standard for clinical software that helps life sciences companies bring new, quality treatments to market more rapidly," Soenen stated. "We're pleased to introduce this much-needed capability to the benefit of the industry."
