Reduce
Risk and Accurately Forecast Results with Clinical Trials Simulator
Clinical studies account for almost half of the over one billion
dollar cost of drug development. More than 80% of all clinical trials
experience significant delays, the cost of which can exceed $35,000
a day.Patient recruitment and retention in clinical trials are widely
recognized as the leading clog in the new drug development pipeline.
The unfortunate result of this problem is that pharmaceutical, biotech,
and medical device companies spend millions in additional development
costs – and lose hundreds of millions in revenue. Click

Project Review: Clinical RD Resource Requirement Analysis
Situation:
The firm’s Clinical R&D department was charged with gaining
a better understanding of its resource requirements
over the next five years. In the current competitive internal operating
climate, the emphasis of this study was
placed on helping to better estimate future resource requirements
as well as identifying opportunities for immediate
resource savings. ProModel was engaged by the Clinical R&D department
to help develop a solution.
Objectives:
The main objective for this project was the development of a methodology
and tool set with which the Clinical R&D
department can more accurately predict their future resource requirements
versus available capacity.
