Market Driver

In the pharmaceutical industry, the shift towards outsourcing drug discovery processes to subcontract laboratories has gained significant traction over the last decade. This trend has been driven by the need for increased R&D investments and the high cost of building and maintaining in-house research facilities. As a result, numerous small companies have opted to focus on manufacturing and marketing, while outsourcing testing and research to external partners. The number of subcontract laboratories has surged since 2011, and this trend is expected to continue. This outsourcing model has enabled companies to carry out research and testing at a fraction of the cost of building and maintaining their own facilities. The popularity of this approach is not limited to developed countries like the US, the UK, Germany, and Japan, but has also gained acceptance in emerging economies such as India and Brazil. The high volume of data generated during the drug discovery process necessitates the use of Clinical Trial Management Systems (CTMS) to manage and analyze data effectively. Consequently, the growing outsourcing trend is fueling demand for CTMS solutions in the pharmaceutical industry. 

The Clinical Trial Management System (CTMS) market is experiencing significant trends that are shaping the future of clinical trials. Robust reporting and centralizing recruitment are key priorities for multinational companies and local CROs alike. ERegulatory, eSOURCE, accounting, and aggregate reporting are essential features for ensuring regulatory compliance and trial efficiency. Digitalization, personalized medicine, and decentralized trials are driving innovation, with outsourcing and externalization becoming more common. Cloud-based CTMS, telemedicine solutions, and decentralized clinical trials are on the rise, especially in the context of vaccines and COVID-19 trials. Investment in AI and advanced technologies is also increasing to streamline processes and reduce costs. System security, backups, upgrades, and uptime consistency are crucial for maintaining trust and confidence in CTM systems. Regulatory policies continue to evolve, requiring ongoing oversight and adaptation. Overall, the market for CTM systems is growing, with trends including ERT, Bioclinica, Healthcare IT, and network-wide visibility.

Market Challenges

Clinical trials are a crucial part of bringing new drugs to market, but their rising costs are a significant concern for pharmaceutical companies. One major factor contributing to these costs is the difficulty and lengthy process of patient enrolment and retention. According to various studies, the average cost per patient in clinical trials in the US is approximately USD41,117, with phase 3 trials being the most expensive, costing around USD20 million. Another factor is the increasing need for extensive clinical data collection due to new regulations, leading to complex and costly trials, particularly for chronic diseases. The longer the trial duration, the higher the costs, making some clinical research associates prefer manual work over management systems for cost-cutting. To mitigate these costs, it’s essential to increase patient awareness and encourage more participation. Pharmaceutical companies should focus on educating patients rather than persuading them, leading to a potential solution for the unhindered growth of the clinical research industry.In the dynamic healthcare IT landscape, Clinical Trial Management Systems (CTMS) have become essential tools for managing complex clinical trials. However, implementing and managing CTMS comes with challenges. Decentralized trials, vaccine development, and telemedicine solutions have increased the need for cloud-based CTMS. Costs, system security, backups, and upgrades are key concerns. Uptime consistency, centralization of data, growth, and automation are important for clinical trial managers. AI and machine learning algorithms streamline processes, but ensure access to data on devices like mobile workstations, laptops, tablets, and online dashboards. Trial planning, monitoring activities, regulatory procedures, supplies, finance, and subscription-based software upgrades require careful consideration. Scalability, add-ons, regulatory norms, document management processes, data quality, participant safety, and adherence to regulatory norms are ongoing challenges. Solutions like Clinion’s CTMS, IWRS/RTSM, EDC, eCOA, and accruals/deviations systems help address these challenges.
