Key Market Trends Fueling Growth

In the pharmaceutical industry, the shift towards outsourcing drug discovery processes to subcontract laboratories has been a significant trend since 2011. This transformation has enabled small companies to focus on manufacturing and marketing activities while outsourcing research and testing to external resources. The increasing popularity of this approach is due to the substantial cost savings it offers, as companies can outsource these functions for a fraction of the cost of building and maintaining their own research facilities. This outsourcing trend is particularly prevalent in countries like the US, the UK, Germany, and Japan, which have been outsourcing drug discovery to 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 this data effectively. The growing number of tests carried out in subcontract laboratories has led to a corresponding increase in demand for CTMS solutions. CTMS plays a crucial role in streamlining the clinical trial process, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements, and facilitating data management and analysis. As the outsourcing trend continues, the demand for CTMS is expected to grow, providing opportunities for market expansion. 

The Clinical Trial Management System (CTMS) market is experiencing significant trends that are transforming the clinical trial landscape. Robust reporting and centralizing recruitment are key priorities for multinational companies and local CROs. ERegulatory, eSOURCE, accounting, and aggregate reporting provide network-wide visibility and oversight. Digitalization, personalized medicine, outsourcing, and externalization are driving growth in the market. Robust reporting, decentralized trial models, and evidence-based facilities are essential for regulatory compliance. ERegulatory, ERT, and Bioclinica are leading providers in Healthcare IT. Cloud-based CTMS, telemedicine solutions, and decentralized clinical trials are crucial in the current COVID-19 era. Costs, system security, backups, upgrades, and uptime consistency are critical considerations for CTM systems. AI and machine learning are enhancing trial efficiency and reducing costs. Vaccines and CTM systems are essential in the fight against COVID-19. The market is expected to continue growing, with investment in digitalization and regulatory policies being key drivers.

Market Challenges

• Clinical trials are a crucial part of bringing new drugs to market, but their rising costs are a significant concern for the pharmaceutical industry. One major challenge is patient enrollment and retention, which can prolong the trial duration and increase expenses. According to various studies, the average cost per patient in the US for clinical trials is approximately USD41,117, with phase 3 trials being the most expensive, costing around USD20 million. Another factor contributing to the rising costs is the need for extensive clinical data collection due to new regulations. This can make trials complex and expensive, especially for drugs targeting chronic diseases. The longer a trial lasts, the more it costs, making clinical trial management systems essential to streamline the process. However, some clinical research associates may prefer manual work to cut costs, hindering the growth of the market. To address this issue, increasing patient awareness is the most feasible solution. By educating patients about the importance and benefits of clinical trials, the number of willing participants is likely to rise, reducing the overall cost and duration of trials. Pharmaceutical companies should focus on patient education rather than persuasion to ensure a successful clinical trial process.
• In the dynamic healthcare IT landscape, Clinical Trial Management Systems (CTMS) have become essential tools for managing complex clinical trials. However, implementing CTMS comes with challenges. Decentralized trials and the rise of vaccines require cloud-based CTMS for flexibility. Telemedicine solutions and COVID-NMA necessitate robust system security, backups, and upgrades. Centralization of data, growth, and AI/machine learning algorithms demand uptime consistency and automation. Clinical trial managers need access to data on devices like mobile workstations, laptops, and tablets via online dashboards. Trial planning, monitoring activities, regulatory procedures, supplies, finance, and subscription-based software upgrades require scalability. Add-ons, regulatory norms, document management processes, data quality, participant safety, and adherence to regulatory procedures are key considerations. Solutions like Clinion offer IWRS/RTSM, EDC, eCOA, accruals, deviations, and scalability to address these challenges.
