Today’s clinical trials are increasingly complex

Many dynamic, moving parts go into the execution of a clinical trial—the protocol, amendments, patient visit schedules, different procedures at different timepoints, Investigation Product (IP), lab kits, clinical supplies, biological samples, and shippers—creating logistical challenges that reduce productivity, increase costs, cause subject attrition, and threaten the overall success of the clinical trial.

Many players contribute to clinical trials

There are many contributors to a successful clinical trial that keep everything moving—each with its own processes, hours of operation, systems, best practices, goals, and priorities. Keeping everyone working together effectively so that subjects have a positive experience takes a lot of coordination and communication—and it's difficult to prevent balls from dropping.

eClinical Supply Chain Management (eCSCM)

platform for complex, sample‑intensive, early‑stage studies

Slope provides a collaborative workspace, configured specifically for your protocol with predefined workflows and processes for supply procurement and shipping, inventory management, subject procedures, and biological sample collection and processing. Slope then uses clinical supply demand data captured at the patient level alongside real-time data and guided workflows to orchestrate the operational execution of complex study protocols. All actions taken are logged in a central source of truth for you, your investigators, and auditors.

Collaboration & Control

Between all the collaborators—sponsors, sites, IP suppliers, supply vendors, labs, biorepositories, and couriers

Real-time Visibility

Into trial execution and the location and status of all clinical supplies and biological samples across all collaborators

Traceable Chain of Custody

For all biological samples, investigational product, and clinical supplies whether stored or in transit between collaborators

Compliance & Adherence

To the protocol, amendments, and federal regulations including Title 21 CFR Part 11 GCP, ALCOAC and Sunshine Act
