Viedoc and Bioforum Partnership Announcement

In an exciting development for the clinical research and analytics field, Viedoc Technologies and Bioforum The Data Masters have announced a formal technology partnership. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in integrating Viedoc EDC (Electronic Data Capture) with BioGRID, Bioforum's advanced clinical data review and analytics platform.

The partnership stems from a solid working relationship that began in 2018, during which Bioforum utilized Viedoc EDC to support numerous clinical studies. The current step of integrating BioGRID into the Viedoc Verified Technology Partner Program showcases a strengthened commitment to providing exceptional support and integration for clinical data analysis.

Bridging Clinical Data Gaps

The integration aims to tackle a prevalent challenge faced by clinical study teams: efficiently capturing and reviewing clinical data. Traditional review processes, often fragmented across different platforms and tools, limit the capacity for quick understanding and decision-making. By incorporating BioGRID, clinical data and metadata can be visualized in a singular, interactive environment where teams can seamlessly conduct analyses.

Amir Malka, CEO and Co-Founder of Bioforum, emphasized that joining the Viedoc Verified program enables their customers to benefit from a unified view of clinical data. This integration fosters enhanced cross-functional interpretations while maintaining high compliance standards required for clinical studies. He acknowledged, "Study teams rarely lack data. What they lack is a clear view of it while the study is still running, and that is what BioGRID gives them."

The visual environment created by BioGRID not only provides a consolidated view of clinical data but will improve oversight throughout the study lifecycle. It will also facilitate interactive analytics, data surveillance, and risk-based monitoring (RBQM). The partnership allows data captured in Viedoc EDC to directly feed into the BioGRID review workflow, enhancing the overall efficiency and accuracy of clinical data review processes.

A Commitment to Continuous Improvement

Both Viedoc and Bioforum see this partnership as part of a broader move towards continuous, real-time analytics within clinical research. With recent shifts in norms established by ICH E6(R3) and ICH E8(R1), there's a marked emphasis on Quality by Design and risk-proportionate systems that can support robust decision-making throughout the clinical data lifecycle. As Malka puts it, "Real-time analytics are becoming increasingly achievable, and the next question is whether the information is ready to support the decision that follows."

The Viedoc Verified program is instrumental in assuring that partners like Bioforum meet the interoperability requirements necessary for integrating their specialized technologies within the Viedoc eClinical suite. This concerted effort enhances customers' confidence with respect to evolving technologies, which are vital to delivering accurate and efficient clinical studies.

Philip McCrea, CEO of Viedoc, assured that the long-standing cooperation with Bioforum lays a strong foundation for this integration, fostering a reliable support system for both companies' clients in the clinical research ecosystem.

Looking Ahead

As Bioforum continues to extend its capabilities into new territories and sectors, including a recent expansion into India, the collaboration with Viedoc is poised to set new standards in clinical data handling. Biopharmaceutical and medical device companies can look forward to improved efficiencies in their clinical trials as they adapt more responsive, technology-driven strategies.

Ultimately, the partnership between Viedoc and Bioforum embodies an exciting step towards future-proofing the clinical research community, nurturing environments where data is more accessible, interpretable, and actionable for all stakeholders involved. Together, they are committed to fostering a healthier world through enhanced data management and analytics in clinical studies.
