Cenduit’s IRT Solution

What Is IRT?

Cenduit’s Interactive Response Technology (IRT) is instrumental in collecting, analyzing, and managing clinical trial data. IRT systems automate data trails allowing users to interact via web-based computers to provide a reliable method of gathering standardized patient-related data at frequent intervals at study sites. IRT systems are commonly used in clinical trials to manage the flow of trial medication supplies to sites and to manage the allocation of these supplies to individual subjects.

Cenduit has successfully differentiated itself by taking ownership of clients’ IRT solutions to help define and ensure clinical study success, strategically aligning itself with SAP® BusinessObjects™ to enhance custom reporting and analytics capabilities within its IRT solution.

By utilizing the SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise reporting solution, business efficiencies are achieved for Cenduit clients by utilizing real-time information on patient recruitment and drug supply management to enable project managers to proactively advise clients in decision-making to improve clinical study productivity.

Business intelligence gleaned from trends in programs over time help clinical trial personnel devise meaningful strategies for running cost-efficient clinical trials. Together, Cenduit and SAP BusinessObjects provide best-in-class clinical trial solutions that focus on transforming data-driven decision-making throughout the drug supply chain management and drug development process to achieve substantial study efficiencies and dramatic cost savings.

Applications For IRT – Why IRT Is Essential For Your Clinical Study

IRT (also known as IVRS /IWRS and IxRS) provides total clinical study control, more timely information, and better decision-making through a consolidated reporting format that provides 100% visibility from anywhere in the world. Most commonly, company representatives involved in the outsourcing of IRT partnerships include Clinical Project Managers, Drug Management Representatives, Outsourcing Representatives, and Statisticians. These individuals directly benefit from IRT support via enhanced efficiency and price estimation, information control, visibility of information, and randomization which is both flexible and complex.

Uses for IRT include access to real-time information for trial managers, collection of patient diary and in-clinic ePRO-data directly from subjects, and as an aid to subject recruitment. Of additional value, IRT systems help facilitate randomization to treatment, stratification, managing enrollment – capping to avoid expensive over enrollment, automated supply management, real time reporting to aid timely decision making.

More recent applications of IRT include sophisticated drug forecasting, expiration date management, ancillary supply management, and adaptive trial design support. Drug returns management, Electronic Data Capture (EDC) interface , Electronic Patient Reported Outcomes (ePRO) integration, and Help Desk Support are also more recent additions to this solution to support users in more effective management of trials resulting in increased efficiency.
