Drug Transportation and Storage Monitoring Solutions for Clinical Trials

From package to patient, use ELPRO to achieve superior temperature monitoring control and visualization throughout the clinical supply chain.

Streamlining Document Management and Data Capture in the Clinical Supply Chain

There are many issues in clinical trials. Patient safety is a primary concern, and confirming product quality helps ensure that the trial runs as planned. However, most clinical trial kits and products are temperature sensitive, which can affect product quality. The stability of drugs and biological samples depends in part on the range of temperatures to which they are exposed during storage and transportation. Each product or kit has a certain, limited stability budget, which can be reduced by deviations in many transportation and storage steps. To avoid this, temperature monitoring during clinical trials is critical.

Clinical trial drugs are usually transported by various methods, such as refrigerated or frozen transportation, rapid freezing/thawing or special packaging, etc., to ensure the safety and efficacy of the drugs during transportation. During transportation, temperature monitoring is a critical task and there are usually two methods of temperature monitoring.

Smart Indicator, Temperature Indicator(The simple design and operation of the product (e.g., temperature stickers, labels, or built-in sensors) allows for real-time monitoring of temperature changes during sample transport, and helps to greatly simplify the monitoring and data collection process.

Long-term indicator:Electronic indicators are installed during production or filling to monitor patients throughout the product's life cycle. HONGKE LIBERO ITS realizes a continuous reduction of temperature deviations from the configured stability budget over the entire life cycle of the product. This may last up to 1 year or even 3 years in the long term.

Refrigerator or freezer monitoring

Once a product arrives at the clinical trial site, there are many quality control processes to ensure patient safety and the smooth running of the clinical trial. Clinical field personnel need to know that product temperatures are in compliance while in the field to ensure that the clinical product is safe and effective for the patient. Reliable temperature monitoring systems provide this assurance. Whether clinical products and kits are stored in refrigerators, freezers or multiple small storage facilities, choosing the right temperature monitoring system helps ensure success.

 

A stand-alone temperature monitoring system is a suitable method for monitoring refrigerators or freezers. The monitoring system provides local audible and visual alarms on the equipment display.

 

Used in clinical sites, the Avision LIBERO W requires no installation or IT infrastructure, measures at temperatures from -35°C to +50°C and is always 100% compliant with the GxP standard. On the other hand, the networked centralized monitoring system provides a more automated process.

The elproCLOUD Starter Kit utilizes real-time data loggers connected to the cloud via a wireless network. The cloud software sends alert notifications around the globe via e-mail and automatic monthly reports around the clock. These systems are more suitable for remote system users with extended point requirements.

Are you tired of your customers and the field not knowing anything about temperature monitoring? Is your organization responsible for managing products stored at multiple remote monitoring points? Are you tired of chasing data? You should consider offering “Monitoring as a Service”!”

CROs can bring value-added benefits to clinical organizations in terms of expertise, monitoring technology and quality control processes. With the easy-to-use LIBERO series of data loggers from Avision ELPRO, you can autonomously monitor critical products in small storage locations or refrigerators.
