CMED and Tessella Partner on Adaptive Clinical Trials.


Companies Partner to Reduce Risk and Time in Design and Execution of Adaptive Clinical Trials for Bio-Tech and Pharmaceutical Companies

HORSHAM Horsham (hôr`shəm), town (1991 pop. 38,356) and district, West Sussex, SE England. Horsham is known primarily for its agricultural and merchandising activities, but it also serves as an engineering center.  & OXFORD, England -- Cmed, the leading clinical research organization and technology development company, has entered into a partnership agreement with Tessella, the information technology and consulting services Noun 1. consulting service - service provided by a professional advisor (e.g., a lawyer or doctor or CPA etc.)
service - work done by one person or group that benefits another; "budget separately for goods and services"
 company selected by R&D, science and engineering leaders for business-critical assignments. Under the terms of the agreement, Tessella and Cmed will ensure interoperability The capability of two or more hardware devices or two or more software routines to work harmoniously together. For example, in an Ethernet network, display adapters, hubs, switches and routers from different vendors must conform to the Ethernet standard and interoperate with each other.  of Timaeus, the Intelligent Data Acquisition and Management system (iDAM) with Tessella FATES[TM], Tessella's fixed and adaptive trial execution system.

"With Timaeus, organizations have the ability to acquire, manage and report data in near real-time 1. real-time - Describes an application which requires a program to respond to stimuli within some small upper limit of response time (typically milli- or microseconds). Process control at a chemical plant is the classic example. . This is particularly important for adaptive trials because it minimizes the delay in the availability of response data and therefore adaptation of the trial," said Tom Parke, head of clinical technologies at Tessella. Parke added, "The interoperability of two best of breed clinical trial products represents an important step in removing the operational complexity associated with adaptive clinical trials."

Richard Young, Director of Business Development at Cmed said: "Tessella and Cmed have been collaborating for some time; not least of all through our Adaptive Trial Design symposium symposium

In ancient Greece, an aristocratic banquet at which men met to discuss philosophical and political issues and recite poetry. It began as a warrior feast. Rooms were designed specifically for the proceedings.
 (February 2009). By entering into a partnership this will reinforce our capabilities, and provide unparalleled solutions for adaptive designs ." Young continues: "Tessella bring huge experience in the design, simulation and execution of adaptive trial designs and the interoperability of Tessella FATES and Timaeus enables bio-tech and pharma companies the ability to leverage this knowhow."

About CMED

Cmed is an eCRO, based in Horsham, UK, New Jersey, USA and Timisoara, Romania. Cmed was formed by Pharmaceutical industry executives and it uniquely combines full clinical research services with advanced clinical data capture and management technology, Timaeus, developed by Cmed's own technology company. Timaeus is a sophisticated and complete electronic data capture and management system, the first such system enabling multiple types of data capture within a single trial (including paper, web eDC and an advanced wireless eDC appliance A stand-alone hardware device or software environment dedicated to a specific task. See hardware appliance and software appliance. ) with full data management capabilities. The eDC appliance is even capable of direct data capture from medical devices, e-source support etc.
