We’re here to deliver global Commercial Drug sourcing and purchasing expertise
Through comparing the effectiveness of commercially available treatments with IMP, sponsors can demonstrate product superiority, ensure patients receive the best possible treatment, and contribute towards fairer, more efficient healthcare systems that deliver better health outcomes.
In a sector committed to patient centricity, it’s unsurprising that comparative effectiveness studies are becoming more common. However, they aren’t straightforward from a supply chain standpoint and require expert planning and management to get right.
Without a approach to comparator sourcing, gaps between commercial and clinical supply chains can develop, with lead times and speed of sourcing compromising timely patient access.
Expert Management
Without expert management of commercial drug procurement, traceability can be difficult to demonstrate, escalating the risk of counterfeit products entering your supply chain and threatening patient safety.
Without appropriate market connections, understanding, and oversight, the price, quality, and reliability of comparator products can mean the difference between success and failure for your clinical trial.
To support you to overcome these challenges, and maximise the potential of your comparative effectiveness research, we’ve developed an end-to-end commercial drug procurement service that provides comparator products, supportive medication, and components on a global scale.
