LEO Pharma , a global leader in medical dermatology, and Veeva Systems announced a strategic technology partnership to enable scalable digital trials, paperless and patient-centered.

By adopting technology and optimized business processes, LEO Pharma plans to achieve the following goals while maintaining the highest standards in data accuracy, regulatory compliance and patient safety:
-
Significant improvement in the patient experience
-
Increased patient diversity through decentralized trials
-
Greater precision of clinical data
-
25% reduction in the cost of clinical trials

25% reduction in clinical trial time
LEO Pharma will use the integrated suite of Veeva clinical products, including eTMF, CTMS, CDMS, Site Connect, eConsent, ePRO, Virtual Visits and eSource.
We were exploring ways to transform clinical trials, but COVID-19 has accelerated this process. By responding quickly to changing market dynamics, we allowed our testing to continue without delay. The partnership with Veeva supports our 2030 strategy because it will help us deliver innovative treatments to patients faster while supporting a more sustainable business. Veeva's results in terms of product excellence make it the ideal long-term partner to help us achieve this goal, which allows us to help patients better and faster.
