Eurofins BioPharma Product Testing offers wide range of services which includes clinical trial materials management. Clinical trials must be performed on any drug candidate prior to regulatory testing. The purpose of the trials is to ensure both safety and effectiveness of treatment in human subjects prior to governing bodies' approval. Currently, there are three phases of clinical trials, and at each phase, the drug candidate is tested against a placebo and/or a medication already on the market. These materials are known as the clinical supply chain. In order to effectively manage clinical trials, the clinical supply chain must be constant. If clinical supply is delayed, the clinical trial will be also be delayed, which can have substantial financial implications related to the manufacturing process, analytical testing, clinical trials and ultimately, availability on the market.
