IntraLinks and ePharmaLearning Partner To Streamline Site Qualification, Activation and Training

 

NEW YORK , NY – February 17, 2005. IntraLinks, the leading provider of secure electronic document exchange service to the life sciences industry, has partnered with ePharmaLearning, a global provider of clinical site activation and online training solutions, to accelerate and improve site qualification, activation, and protocol training. The partnership will help pharmaceutical and medical device companies launch clinical drug trials faster, less expensively, and with a greater chance for success than traditional methods.

ePharmaLearning will integrate IntraLinks’ 21CFR Part 11-capablesecure document exchange service with its Investigator Portal Solution to provide study sites and sponsors with a single hub for study launches. In addition to the integrated service offering, ePharmaLearning will provide clinical support services - to facilitate site qualification, site activation, and training to accelerate and improve study launch.

“We have supported the qualification and training of more than 25,000 clinical researchers in over 40 countries over the last four years,” said Lance Converse, CEO and Founder of ePharmaLearning. “IntraLinks’ secure electronic document exchange technology is a powerful complement to our Investigator Portal. Together, we can provide an end-to-end online solution for study sites and sponsors. Under the partnership, IntraLinks will coordinate its services with ePharmaLearning's SiteActivater™, which consolidates the qualification, activation, training, and trial management tools used by study sites. Sites are provided with single, secure, study-specific workspaces for 24x7 access to feasibility surveys, study documents, self-paced eLearning modules, online meetings, and trial management tools. The system time-stamps, tracks and reports on all user activity to support clinical project management and tracking needs.

“ePharmaLearning’s expertise in site recruitment, qualification and training is the perfect complement to our secure document exchange service,” said Richard Jenkins, Vice President of Business Development for IntraLinks. “The combination of IntraLinks’ and ePharmaLearning’s systems will enable trial sponsors to consolidate tasks, training and document exchange in a single workspace to accelerate drug development timelines.”
