Exco Intouch has been presented with the Best IT Strategy award at the European Outsourcing Awards in Frankfurt.
Exco Intouch received the award in recognition of its Atlas short messaging service (SMS) technology for clinical trial applications.
The company won the award for its submission based on the innovative integration of the Atlas system with electronic data capture (EDC) technology, which enables pharmaceutical sponsors to quickly identify and contact potential clinical trial subjects, speeding up the recruitment process.
Atlas is also used within a number of clinical trials to improve patient retention and compliance.
Sponsors can send personalised text messages to subjects enrolled in a study, including clinic and medication reminders and motivational tips.
