The adoption of web-hosted solutions will empower the growth of futuristic growth.
eClinical solutions are software and applications utilized for the effective organization of clinical trials and clinical research activities. The different software under the eClinical solutions helps in managing, maintaining, and recording data and tracking deadlines, among other features. Various eClinical solutions include randomization and trial supply management (RTSM), clinical data management system (CDMS), and clinical trial management system (CTMS), among others. Web host demand offers several benefits, including easy availability, accessibility, and relatively lower investments. Additionally, these products maintain client data on a cloud server which is easily accessible through the web and requires only computer hardware with an internet connection.
COVID-19 showed a positive impact on the market’s growth.
The outbreak of COVID-19 has demonstrated a positive impact on the market's growth as the majority of pharmaceutical companies focused their research and development efforts on supporting the development of the COVID-19 vaccine. Furthermore, owing to the pandemic, several clinical trials adopted a completely virtual/hybrid model leading to a significantly increased demand for eClinical solutions. For instance, in June 2020, eClinical Solutions LLC, collaborated with Karyopharm Therapeutics on randomized clinical trials for low-dose selinexor, an XPO1 inhibitor, in hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19. Thus, with the increasing severity of the pandemic, the demand for the development of the COVID-19 vaccine increases, accelerating market growth.
