KIKA Clinical Solutions Announces Veracity 3.8, Newest Version of its Advanced EDC Solution for Pharmaceutical, Biotechnology and Medical Device Clinical Trial Management
BOSTON, Mass and PARIS, France - 28 February 2010 -KIKATM Clinical Solutions announced the availability of VeracityTM 3.8, the latest version of its innovative EDC solution. KIKA is the leading provider of advanced EDC solutions for Clinical Asset ManagementTM for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device markets.


KIKA CEO Linda Beneze commented, "Veracity 3.8 reflects KIKA's total commitment to providing the industry's most innovative, reliable, flexible EDC technology. Veracity is the only EDC solution that enables sponsors to completely protect, control and maximize their most important clinical trial asset - their data."


Key new functionality in VeracityTM 3.8 includes:


â– Improved Endpoint Adjudication - VeracityTM already leads the EDC industry in endpoint adjudication capabilities. Enhancements in VeracityTM 3.8 provide an even better user experience with new tools that enable advanced endpoint adjudication workflow. The enhancements also facilitate the work of the endpoint processing and review manager, and ensure a faster and easier decision making process.

â– Enhanced Data Audit Trail - Now directly available through the VeracityTM Web client, this new feature version eases the daily tasks of the clinical trial Monitor and Data Manager. The Data Audit Trail tracks and reviews every action performed on the clinical data. It allows global query capabilities on the entire study. It filters and sorts capabilities, displays all useful information (such as author, timestamp, type of actions, old value and new value, hyperlink to the relevant element, etc.).

â– Automated Query - This new extension to the existing module of manual monitoring query saves Monitors time. For a defined criteria (out of ranges values, missing data, etc.) VeracityTM can initiate the manual query process by automatically posting the query to the site. This frees Monitors from having to spend time on this repetitive action.

â– New Language Support - The VeracityTM user interface now is natively supported in Italian and Spanish. Other supported languages are English, French and German.

Several other improvements provide a better end user experience. Additionally, authoring tools enhancements include easier implementation of the signature workflow, the monitoring query workflow, and the SDV workflow.
