RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. – June10, 2015 – Quintiles,the world’s largest biopharmaceutical services company,today announced the addition ofadvanced statistical monitoring and predictive analytics capabilities to its risk-based monitoring (RBM) solution. Predictive and Advanced Analytics combine Quintiles’ experience as the RBM leader with its deep therapeutic and strong statistical sciences heritage to enable study teams to identify the right signals andpredict clinical trial site performance and potential patient safety issues.

Predictive and Advanced Analytics are the first such model-based capabilities fully integrated into an RBM solution on the market today. Underpinned by the award-winningQuintiles Infosario® technology platform and Quintiles’ deep data resources, these new capabilities improve precision in risk identification by better understanding underlying “white noise” from safety trigger processes.

“The ultimate goal of risk-based monitoring is to increase the efficiency of drug development while improving quality and patient safety,” said Margaret Keegan, senior vice president,Data Sciences & Strategy at Quintiles. “The ability to cut through all the noise and predict potential risks before they occur means we can target the right action at the right place at the right time. It is a major step forward in improving quality and productivity in the next generation of RBM execution.”

Quintiles is the RBM market leader currently engaged in more than 130 studies using RBM processes and policies, across more than 26,000 sites and 260,000 patients.Compliant with U.S. Food and Drug Association, European Medicines Agency and TransCelerateguidance, Predictive and Advanced Analyticsuse unique statistical algorithms specifically designed for optimal RBM execution.The capabilitiescombineinputs across multiple variables including operational performance and study data to provide unprecedented insights into potential study risks.

“Being able to target patients and sites with this level of accuracy takes RBM to a new level in terms of both speed and quality,” said Teresa Lamantia, senior vice president, Knowledge Management at Quintiles. “The ability to focus resources where they’re needed to protect patient safety and the integrity of the trial is a welcome advance for all of us working to transform clinical development.”

Quintiles’ experts will be available to discuss RBM and the new Predictive and Advanced Analytics functionality at its booth at the upcoming Drug Information Association (DIA) conference June 14-18, 2015, in Washington, D.C. In addition, a discussion of Predictive and Advanced Analytics will be included in a Quintiles presentation at 12 p.m. EDT,June 16at DIA’s Innovation Theater.
