Parexel and Veeva Collaborate to Speed-Up Clinical Trials

Parexel and Veeva Systems announced a strategic partnership today to accelerate clinical trials through technological and process innovation. The unique partnership blends the best of each company's expertise through thousands of tests worldwide – Parexel as a pioneering CRO and Veeva as the technological innovator powering trials – to boost study performance and bring innovative therapies to patients faster.

Parexel is standardizing Veeva's suite of clinical operations software, including Veeva Vault eTMF, Vault CTMS, and Vault Study Startup, as part of the agreement to streamline operations. Parexel's clients will now have access to Veeva Vault CDMS for clinical data storage as a free product.

The companies will work together to continually develop Veeva's cloud technology and Parexel's clinical trial delivery processes based on the insights from sponsors, sites, and patients. Parexel will provide early access to and give feedback on Veeva's clinical products, such as innovations to support sites and patients in decentralized clinical trials (DCT), risk-based quality management (RBQM), and community-based sites.

"By implementing Veeva's clinical solutions, we can streamline trial procedures, increase performance, and make trial implementation and attendance simpler for promoters, locations, and patients," Parexel CEO Jamie Macdonald said. "Through this extended relationship with Veeva, we hope to have more value to customers and have a much greater effect on the lives of patients."

"We're happy to work with Parexel to fuel customer success and accelerate clinical research innovation," said Peter Gassner, Veeva's founder, and CEO. "By working together, we will help our customers get new vaccines, diagnostics, devices, and therapies to patients in need"
