endpoint and THREAD Simplify DCT Operations for Key Stakeholders to Reduce Study Timelines
SAN FRANCISCO and CARY, N.C., Aug. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

  -- Integration of data capture and transactions ensures that the site 
     and subject stay together in a unified workflow 

endpoint Clinical (

), the leader in global interactive response technology (IRT(R)) for clinical 
trials, and THREAD ( 
https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=3269693-1&h=2038022612&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.threadresearch.com%2F&a=THREAD 
), a leading technology and service provider enabling decentralized clinical 
trials (DCT), have announced their partnership to offer sponsors and sites a 
solution that simplifies DCT operations and reduces research study timelines.

"Adoption of DCT technologies that are capable of not only performing 
individually as best-in-class solutions but are also designed and engineered to 
be at optimal performance in an integrated clinical data mesh are the key to 
meeting demands and leading in the rapidly changing landscape of clinical 
trials," says Brad Cottreau, Vice President of Global Sales at endpoint 
Clinical. 

This ecosystem approach realizes the full potential of critical functions such 
as telehealth visits and direct-to-patient/home health shipping of study drugs, 
all while maintaining mission-critical goals of high patient engagement, 
compliance, and retention.

Through this partnership, endpoint Clinical and THREAD provide two-way 
integration for eConsent, screening, and randomization, supporting automation 
of underlying workflows across the two platforms. The interfacing of systems 
has a particular impact on sites, as they do not need to duplicate data entry. 
In addition, this integrated approach simplifies operations such as subject 
creation, screening, assessments, randomization (including dispensing), and 
subject treatment visits. Two-way communication between the platforms enables 
data-driven, rapid feedback that can inform strategies for patient recruitment, 
supply procurement, clinical operations, and data management. Together, this 
results in cleaner data and a faster study close.

"As decentralized trials continue to propel global scalability and flexibility 
of clinical trials, THREAD partners with clients to ensure a seamless execution 
from study design to close-out via our single, comprehensive platform," said 
John Reites, CEO of THREAD. "Our collaboration with endpoint represents a new 
way to synchronize the real-world experience of the participant with the data 
at the site, resulting in one smooth continuum."

"When establishing partnerships with other world-class technology providers, 
such as THREAD, we always first address how the solution we offer can solve 
pain points for sponsors," said Christine Oliver, CEO of endpoint. "Beyond 
addressing pain points, we're also pushing the boundaries of what the market 
has been able to do to date to evolve the way we manage trials and continue to 
increase speed and efficiency for sponsors."
