REUTERS: Clinical trial service providers report a spike in demand for virtual trials as pharmaceutical companies try to prevent the coronavirus outbreak from derailing their drug rollouts.
New patient enrollment in the United States, Italy and Spain more than halved during March compared to last year, according to Dassault Systemes' clinical trials unit Medidata. Most drugmakers had not considered shifting to a virtual model, as each change to trials comes with an almost half-million-dollar price tag, until the outbreak forced their hand, said Harry Glorikian, chief executive of Transparency Life Sciences, which specializes in virtual trials.
The life sciences firm has seen"tremendous interest" for its services and has begun reconfiguring its technology to implement it in clinical trials within a week instead of the usual six to eight weeks, said Rose.
