Castor is expediting and simplifying medical device research and development with its decentralized clinical trial platform. The firm's DCT program is designed to increase the efficiency of launching medtech studies by ensuring regulatory compliance, optimizing the patient experience, and streamlining the real-time collection of research data.
“For us, it’s important that digital technology is accessible and easy-to-use for patients and researchers. That’s why we are so passionate about delivering a complete self-service solution to help medical device manufacturers navigate their trials,” said Derk Arts, Ph.D., M.D., CEO and founder of Castor. “We are excited by the opportunity to help medical device companies develop high-engagement, patient-friendly and data integrated clinical workflows that streamline the approval process and ultimately deliver the best products to market.”
Innovation within the healthcare industry is on the rise, with medical device manufacturers uniquely positioned to make a global impact on the treatment and prevention of diseases. In line with market growth, the medical device landscape is increasingly complex, as global regulatory bodies enforce stricter regulatory standards for medical device trials.
For manufacturers, new regulations such as MDR-IVDR and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's 21st Century Cures Act are changing the path to approval and placing a greater emphasis on data quality, safety, and transparency. Leveraging Castor’s globally compliant platform, manufacturers can successfully navigate the regulatory landscape and ensure compliance with an easy-to-use, intuitive technology designed to optimize patient engagement and streamline data collection from multiple sources. The company currently works with more than 150 medical device companies.
Castor’s interface and integration capabilities enable medical device manufacturers to achieve compliance and focus on patient outcomes, minimizing the burden of managing multiple technologies, vendors, and processes. Built for single and multi-site medical device clinical trials, Castor’s modular DCT platform can:
Castor provides decentralized and hybrid clinical trial solutions to democratize research. With the highest-rated eClinical platform for decentralized and hybrid clinical trials, Castor’s plug-and-play platform offers rapid deployment at scale, enabling researchers to create a trial in a matter of clicks, with easy enrollment, consent, and real-world data capture. Castor is bringing human-centered design to the clinical trial process, from recruitment to analysis, and improving the quality, security, and reusability of data for researchers worldwide.
