Randomisation and trial supply management (RTSM) software specialist 4G Clinical has signed an agreement to secure a growth equity investment exceeding $230m from Goldman Sachs Asset Management.
The company will use the proceeds to continue its international expansion and meet the rising demand for its products. The funds will also support 4G Clinical’s aim to expedite access to critical drugs.
Established in 2015, 4G Clinical uses natural language processing (NLP) to transform the execution of clinical trials, subsequently fast-tracking the studies.
The company’s Prancer RTSM allows life sciences companies to attain the first patient in (FPI) up to 50% quicker compared with other providers, as well as efficiently deploy mid-trial changes.
4C Supply, the company’s clinical supply optimisation solution, integrates real-time RTSM actuals to avoid stock-outs and reduced drug waste.
4G Clinical CEO David Kelleher said: “In just over five years, 4G Clinical has grown from a start-up to a globally recognised leader in RTSM, helping life sciences organisations execute clinical trials of any size and complexity throughout the drug development lifecycle.
