Cloud platform allows Hcor to independently develop clinical studies in immunology, reducing complexity and costs
The Brazilian Health Institute and Research Organization Hcor is using the Oracle Clinical One Data Collection to develop its critical Phase 3 immunology studies. Before Oracle, Hcor relied on third-party companies to build the studies, which added time and complexity to the process. With Oracle's modern and intuitive cloud-based data collection solution, Hcor can now build and manage its studies independently, helping reduce costs and accelerate trial execution.
Built on the security, performance, and scalability of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, Oracle Clinical One Data Collection is part of the broad portfolio of science solutions from Oracle.
"HCOR is dedicated to providing the best possible healthcare, and technology plays a crucial role in achieving this goal," says Tamiris Abait Miranda, research institute manager at HCOR. "With Oracle Clinical One Data Collection, we independently developed two important immunology studies using Oracle's robust and reliable platform, which can help accelerate potentially life-changing clinical trials."
Hcor is a Brazilian hospital specializing in cardiology, oncology, and other healthcare areas and is recognized for being an innovative research institute and for its participation in clinical trials.
Reducing costs and complexity in clinical studies
Oracle Clinical One Data Collection offers a modern approach to electronic data capture, enabling life sciences organizations to collect data sets from diverse sources and unlock valuable clinical insights.
Oracle was recognized as a leader for this comprehensive approach in the most recent Everest Group PEAK Matrix for electronic data capture. The data platform's intuitive, user-friendly design makes it easy to execute study construction and make adjustments in real time, mid-study, without sacrificing quality or requiring costly interventions from third-party vendors or developers. This can help accelerate study turnaround times and reduce construction time.
“Our unified platform helps organizations like Hcor facilitate independent study construction and gain greater flexibility and control throughout the clinical trial lifecycle,” said Seema Verma, executive vice president and general manager, Oracle Health and Life Sciences. “This is part of our larger mission to help our customers leverage the latest in AI and cloud technology to dramatically transform how trials are conducted. By focusing on patient-centric solutions, connecting patients and trials at the point of care, improving safety monitoring, accelerating data collection, and streamlining regulatory submissions, we aim to bring life-changing procedures to patients faster.”
Hcor is also benefiting from the low latency and high computing power of Oracle Exadata. Cloud@CustomerBy migrating its workloads and development platforms to Oracle Exadata Cloud@Customer, Hcor also increased its overall IT performance in 2013. Hcor developers are launching healthcare projects 5x faster than before, delivering fully tested applications in one month instead of five. Additionally, the solution significantly increased security and the number of projects that can be completed per month, reducing backlog and accelerating patient care initiatives. Learn more on here.
