SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 11, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ClinCapture, Inc., an eClinical software company, announced today that its integrated Captivate Platform, developed after raising a round of seed funding led by Healthy Ventures with participation from Rock Health, Royal Street Investment & Innovation Center, and Lateral Capital, LLC., has resulted in a record number of new customers for the company.
Working in clinical trials can feel like stepping into a time machine, with many trials still collecting and storing data on paper forms. Existing digital solutions are cumbersome, expensive, and out of reach of many companies, slowing down a critical step in bringing potentially lifesaving innovations to market. San Francisco’s ClinCapture has created an Electronic Data Capture (EDC) technology that drastically streamlines and accelerates clinical trials by moving data collection and workflows – including Randomization, electronic Patient Reported Outcomes (ePRO), and Medical Dictionary Coding – online.
Scott Weidley, CEO of ClinCapture, believes in the value of accelerating the clinical trials process through technology, saving companies up to 80% in set-up costs. “There are a lot of great service providers in the pharma industry,” Weidley says, “but very few great technologies exist that simplify the process for clinical data managers while keeping clinical research sites operating smoothly.”
ClinCapture utilizes a unique private cloud infrastructure capable of deploying clinical study data to individual software instances for added data privacy and database performance. Clinical researchers are no longer forced to interrupt research with mid-study re-validation. The EDC technology can quickly be configured to support trials even in complex therapeutic areas, such as oncology. With an increase of complex, multi-site trials being performed, companies of all sizes need EDC technology that is affordable, fast, and scalable.
“In ClinCapture, we’ve found a team that not only has experience building terrific clinical trials companies, but also sees the future of clinical trials. We’re excited about their existing products as well as the product pipeline and reach, which we believe to be industry-leading,” said Anya Schiess of Healthy Ventures.
“We’re delighted about the opportunity to back a team like ClinCapture with a product that will have incredible impact on new channels for innovation in life sciences,” said Rock Health Managing Director, Bill Evans. “ClinCapture’s solution is uniquely positioned to help solve the most complex clinical trial needs of its customers. We believe there is potential to reshape the way biopharma development leaders think about—and ultimately meet—these challenges.”
