Premier Interactive Response Technology (IRT)

Focus more on science, less on administration

Your next drug trial shouldn’t be a study in complexity — and it doesn’t have to be. The Premier IRT system simplifies clinical trial management, improves data security, and easily accommodates your specific study design requirements. Premier IRT offerings include:

• Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS): Voice-based IRT system
• Interactive Web Response System (IWRS): Web-based IRT system
• Electronic Clinical Outcome Assessment (eCOA) Solution: IVRS + IWRS + reporting device of your choice for electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePROs) and other clinical assessments

Our reliable, fully validated 21 CFR Part 11-compliant IVRS/IWRS system incorporates electronic reporting and ePRO capabilities, allowing you to automate many aspects of your trial with flexibility and confidence. That means less stress on investigators and patients alike, and it lets you focus more on science and less on administration.

The Premier IRT system, available as a full-service capability or as a standalone offering, has proven itself on trials throughout North America, Europe, South Africa, Asia, and Australia. It’s backed by a strong, stable team of IRT experts experienced in all facets of interactive response and ePRO systems.

Mobile ePRO/eCOA reporting at your fingertips

With our easy-to-use mobile ePRO application, patient diaries and other eCOA data can be entered on any Android or iOS device. Types of data that can be captured include:

• NPRS (0-10): e.g., Pain on a scale of 0-10
• Five Point Scales: e.g., Always, Often, Sometimes, Seldom, Never
• Yes\No Questions: e.g., Did you take any rescue meds?
• Numeric Values: e.g., How many rescue tablets did you take? How many times did you wake up last night?

Our mobile solution helps ensure compliance and is tightly integrated with our core IRT system within the ePremier Integration Hub, which brings study data and data quality processes together under one platform. Click here to learn more.
