Top 10 Global Pharmaceutical Company Awards Three Thorough Phase
I ECG Studies to eResearchTechnology for Cardiac Safety Monitoring and
Information Distribution Services
Studies Include More Than 38,000 ECGs for Later Stage Compounds in Three
Therapeutic Areas; Trials to be Completed Before Year End
PHILADELPHIA, June 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- eResearchTechnology, Inc.
(eRT) (NASDAQ:ERES), a leading provider of centralized electrocardiographic
(ECG) collection and interpretation services, announced today that it has been
awarded three Thorough Phase I ECG studies totaling more than 38,000 ECGs from
a top 10 global pharmaceutical organization under a previously executed
Franchise agreement for three of its key drug candidates in clinical
development.
The agreements cover three extensive Phase I studies for which eRT is providing
comprehensive support including the provision, training and ongoing assistance
required for effective use of digital 12-lead Holter equipment designed to
facilitate 24-hour digital recording of cardiac safety data that is
subsequently provided to eRT for analysis. eRT will perform digital
collection, measurement, interpretation, review, and distribution of cardiac
safety data through its EXPeRT(R) workflow enabled data handling technology,
the first solution in production that was designed explicitly to meet emerging
international regulatory guidance and technical standards.
"eRT's Franchise program, which was signed and implemented with this sponsor
last year, has created a unique platform of enabling technology and available
resources, complemented by continuous communications between the sponsor and
eRT, which enables rapid response with the available capacity needed to support
simultaneous execution of these thorough QT studies for later stage compounds
nearing submission," said Scott Grisanti, senior vice president of business
development and chief marketing officer at eRT. "eRT's scalable infrastructure
supports delivery of the capacity and throughput required to support the
simultaneous execution of these three studies in the coming months, along with
numerous other Thorough Phase I ECG studies and hundreds of later phase trials.
This ensures our customers, especially those in Franchise relationships, of
the resources and expertise to address regulatory demands, accelerate
development safely, and gain the competitive edge needed to deliver on their
respective goals and objectives."
