How drug development teams gain insights using vSIM

Track samples across the lifecycle of collection, processing, testing, and storage to make sure the right samples get to the right place at the right time.

Monitor sample collections per protocol (e.g., missed samples, out of protocol)

Comprehensive view of samples, harmonized from all lab sources and EDC

Automated data checks and sample reconciliation checks, with a centralized query tracker

Address discrepancies before database lock, monitor site and vendor performance, and retrain sites if needed.

Identify patterns of non-compliance at sites to enable timely course correction

Ensure quality data and compliance with sample collections

Automated sample recon between EDC and labs, enabling timely corrections

Monitor sample availability, quality, and consent status to properly plan batch testing runs.

Centralized view of sample testing status across all assays and testing labs

Assess sample stability and flag samples approaching expiration

Accelerate decisions with our AI Virtual Assistant

Get fast, easily consumable insights from your sample data with the simplicity of natural language questions.
