ClearTrial® Releases v2.3 of its Clinical Trial Operations Planning Software

Chicago, IL — September 1, 2007  — ClearTrial announced the release of ClearTrial 2.3, the latest version of the company's clinical trial software that helps biopharmaceutical companies and clinical research organizations (CROs) more effectively plan, budget, outsource, and optimize the operational design of clinical trials.

New features include improved ability to compare two or more clinical development strategies in a snapshot summary view, improved support for assigning tasks to different vendors on a country by country basis, and new reports for managing global studies with multiple vendors assigned to perform work.

Additionally, major architectural enhancements now improve the system’s ability to support customized work breakdown structures (WBS), or task lists, that vary from company to company. This capability enables even faster system implementation time for larger sponsors and CROs with existing investments in clinical costing, RFP and proposal WBS.

"The ClearTrial software continues to lead the market in providing an enterprise class system for clinical planning, costing and outsourcing that can be operational in as little as one day," said Michael Soenen, Managing Partner of ClearTrial. "With release 2.3, we have pushed the envelope even further, allowing Top 20 sponsors and CROs to get up and running with their own WBS faster than any comparable system."
