Imaging clinical trials create a
tremendous amount of data – several gigabytes per subject – and require
storage for a minimum of seven years for regulatory compliance.
To support the need for storage and
streamlined access to data during and after a clinical trial, AG
Mednet Inc. announced AG
Mednet Storage – a Part 11 compliant repository with on-demand
access to clinical trial image data.
It is a complement to AG Mednet’s
quality enhancement products including AG Mednet Submission Quality &
Compliance – an automated quality assurance software built to
detect errors at the investigator site prior to data submission in
order to reduce queries and accelerate clinical trial
decision-making.
Specific benefits include:
For Sponsors
- Secure, validated and scalable
infrastructure;
- Copies of image data and case report
forms from sites delivered simultaneously to sponsors and core labs;
- Automatic alerts when new images are
sent with real-time access to submissions;
- Aggregated data for querying by site,
subject, timepoint and modality;
- On-demand access to post-trial copies
of unaltered submissions for future use and aggregation with other
trial submissions.
For Core Labs
- On-demand infrastructure scalability
without increased capital or FTE investments;
- Redundancy, DR and long term archival;
- Management of remote access by outside
readers;

Australia, South America, Europe and the US;
