IRT / Drug Management
Optimize drug management globally with our IRT/Drug Management solution.
Monitor drug kit status seamlessly across depots, sites, and teams in real-time. Receive automatic alerts, ensuring immediate actions are taken, and stay in control of your study drug supply effortlessly.
Drug supply, re-supply and communication between depots, sites and team are handled through the drug management tool integrated in the Study Portal. The drug management tool allows the management/tracking of the following activities:
- Drug release by Sponsor’s Depot
- Drug boxes receipt at site
- Drug dispensing to patients
- Drug (used/unused) returned to the Sponsor’s Depot for destruction
- Drug destruction’s date by the Depot
For the first drug supply or re-supply process, the following steps are involved:
CRA Request
The Clinical Research Associate (CRA) initiates the request for the initial drug supply or re-supply. This request is often triggered by low drug availability alerts, which are closely monitored.
Depot Coordination
The request is then transmitted to the designated Depot responsible for managing the drug supply. The Depot team organizes the shipment of the required drugs.
Shipment Delivery
Once the drugs are prepared and packaged, they are shipped to the research site where the clinical trial is being conducted. The shipment is carefully tracked to ensure its timely arrival.
