Clinical trial sponsors face increasing pressures to deliver results efficiently. Any setbacks due to study drug compliance, lack of patient engagement, or data integrity issues can be costly.

spencer^® is the world’s first and only fully integrated, data-driven patient support platform
that helps reduce these risks for clinical trial sponsors.

spencer^® adds value to Phase II through Phase IV studies, redefining direct-to-patient trials and the collection of real-world evidence by keeping patients engaged and adherent.

* As reported in 2022 Spencer Health Solutions’ commercial pharmaceutical programs and patient populations.

Patient-Reported Outcomes in One Place

Answering ePRO questions is easy with spencer^®. The spencer touchscreen prompts participants to answer questions designated by the protocol. All entries are shared immediately with the team, allowing investigators to follow up with patients to keep them compliant, engaged, and participating.

Real-Time Insights

spencer^®continuously collects data — actively through dispensing and survey questions, and passively through Bluetooth connections. Bluetooth-enabled health monitoring devices collect health data, such as blood pressure and glucose levels. This data collection provides real-world health insights to empower the clinical team to support the participants between scheduled visits. The data is collected and sent to the spencerCloud®, which can be easily accessed through the spencerCare® platform or delivered via API.

Telehealth Connections

spencer’s telehealth feature brings research full circle. Telehealth connects the research team with patients, making it easy to address patient questions or concerns and reduce the number of required on-site clinic visits. Remote capabilities also offer the potential to expand trial participation to a larger geographic area, reducing patient burden that often contributes to trial dropouts.

Packaging

spencer^® works with a variety of industry-leading clinical packagers to ensure that your study drug meets all stability requirements while still being dispensed by spencer. We have a variety of packaging options to meet your needs and account for your currently stable packaging formats.

Titration

spencer^® can accommodate a variety of complicated dosing schedules – both scheduled titrations and not! Whether it’s timed titrations in one refill kit, one refill kit per dose strength, or any other protocol required titration, contact us to today so we can explore the best option for your study.

Depth of Data

spencerCare® houses all data collected by spencer and serves as a portal for clinical trial sites, clinical research organizations, and pharmaceutical manufacturers so they have real-time actionable data and mitigate potential issues. Depending on your requirements, data access can be assigned to team members by role and in an identified or de-identified manner to ensure patient privacy.

spencer’s Full Circle Trial Solution

The spencer^® patient support platform connects investigators with participants right in their homes, providing convenience and the advantage of enhanced data collection.

By engaging participants through a user-friendly interface, patients are reminded to take their medications and interact with the study team.

With real-time data collection and analysis, the study team can loop back to patients for adjustments or follow-up through telehealth links on the touchscreen, giving sponsors a full-circle solution throughout the the life of their trial.
