Alliance Foundation Trials (AFT), a research organization that develops and conducts cancer clinical trials, selected Perficient’s Siebel Clinical accelerator, ASCEND, as its clinical trial management system (CTMS). Since the initial implementation they have added integrations with Medidata Rave, a unified electronic data capture (EDC) and clinical data management system (CDMS), and Veeva Vault eTMF, an electronic trial master file system. Why did AFT choose ASCEND? Why did they prioritize the integration with Rave? What challenges led them to integrate with Veeva? How useful are the integrations proving to be? What are their future plans for their CTMS? Param Singh, director of clinical operations solutions at Perficient, hosted a one-hour “fireside chat” with Jennifer Gaskin, operations director at AFT, in which Param asked all of these questions, and more.
