Suite will provide Wyeth with a common, integrated framework for all its screening data, enabling researchers to capture, manage and access large volumes of information
ID Business Solutions (IDBS) reports that Wyeth will implement the ActivityBase data management software suite to increase efficiency and throughput in the operations of its screening sciences department.
After a rigorous evaluation, which involved stress-testing ActivityBase's abilities to handle ultra high throughput processes, Wyeth selected ActivityBase for its screening sciences groups at the four discovery research locations in Pearl River New York, Princeton New Jersey, Collegeville Pennsylvania, and Cambridge Massachusetts.
The ActivityBase suite will provide Wyeth with a common, integrated framework for all its screening data, enabling researchers to capture, manage and access large volumes of information.
This will help accelerate the discovery of new lead compounds for Wyeth's main therapeutic areas of inflammation, neuroscience, oncology, women's health, and cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.
Neil Kipling, IDBS's chairman and CEO commented: "The significant increase in throughput planned by Wyeth's screening groups demanded a data management system that could scale-up to their requirements both now and in the future, as well as map closely to their workflow. We are delighted to be supporting Wyeth in increasing efficiency and improving data access - both critical factors in a highly productive drug discovery pipeline."
