Clinion CTMS
Clinion CTMS is a cloud-based, web system for managing clinical trial operations from Phase I through Phase IV. It centralizes milestones, site monitoring, and budgets for sponsors and CROs; Clinion also identifies study managers and site coordinators managing multi-site trials, timelines, or budgets as users. Milestone tracking compares planned timelines with actual progress and flags departures from the study plan. A centralized protocol-deviation log has dashboard filters and email notifications for events such as submission, review, and sign-off. Report and letter tools include templates, configurable approval workflows, action-item tracking, dashboards, and time-stamped audit trails. Financial features cover milestone-based invoicing and configurable site and vendor expense approvals, with recorded histories. Administrators can configure five-level approval hierarchies and more than 100 automated notifications and reminders. Clinion says CTMS connects natively with its EDC, RTSM, and eTMF products and can connect to third-party systems in those categories. Listed standards include FDA 21 CFR Part 11, HIPAA, ISO 9001:2015, ISO 27001:2013, ICH, GDPR, and EU Annex 11. Pricing is available on request.
