Off-shoring: A Country Attractiveness Index for Clinical Trials
By Mark P. Mathieu
For many years, pharmaceutical companies have been off-shoring manufacturing operations to lower-cost countries. Healthy margins and strong risk aversion have afforded pharmaceutical companies the luxury of staying close to home, for all but manufacturing activities. As financial pressures increase, pharmaceutical executives are finding that going offshore is not only less risky than it once was, but also too attractive to ignore. Read More

Rethinking Clinical Trials Data Integration There is a gap between the need for data integration and fully integrated systems. To find out why, SAS and Pharmaceutical Executive conducted confidential telephone interviews with senior pharmaceutical executives and CROs. This article discusses recommendations on how to achieve optimal clinical data integration, based on those interviews.
eClinical Trial Technologies Revolutionizing Clinical Development Efficiency This Bio-IT World BriefingON report, sponsored by ClearTrial, presents a selection of recent stories from Bio•IT World and sister publication, eCliniqua, that illustrate how new technologies and approaches can have a profound impact on the management and execution of clinical trials.
Remote Data Capture:Acquisition and Analysis See why Electronic Data Capture (EDC) is gaining traction in the pharmaceutical
clinical trials arena. Today approximately half of all clinical trials are conducted
electronically, and the figure is rapidly rising. Report includes contributions from
Oracle Health Sciences, Pfizer, PPD, and C3i.

Impact of the 1000 Genomes Project on the Next Wave of Pharmacogenomic Discovery
 Interview with M. Eileen Dolan, Ph.D., Professor, Medicine, University of Chicago and Speaker at Next-Generation Sequencing Data Management, September 27-29, 2010, Providence, RI
The 1000 Genomes Project aims to provide detailed genetic variation data on >1000 genomes from worldwide populations using the next-generation sequencing technologies. Some of the samples utilized for the 1000 Genomes Project are the International Hap-Map samples that are composed of lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) derived from individuals of different world populations. The detailed map of human genetic variation promised by the 1000 Genomes project will allow a more in-depth analysis of the contribution of genetic variation to drug response. Future studies utilizing this new resource can greatly enhance our understanding of the genetic basis of drug response and other complex traits.
