APOLLO CLPM™- MDS Pharma Services Web-Based Study Management Technology

From the design of every kit to the delivery of final specimen values, APOLLO CLPM™ (Central Lab Protocol Management) captures, tracks, monitors, validates, and reports on every aspect of your program;  insuring accuracy, reliability and Quality on time™ every time, providing a Global overview of each study regardless of geography, timeline or origin of the samples.

APOLLO CLPM™ is a secured globally accessible web based, 21 CFR part 11 validated and certified application.   Designed and developed by subject matter experts of every applied discipline integral to the system.

Built on an Oracle database, the APOLLO CLPM™ system is a truly singular database that replaces multiple legacy systems and sub-systems, helping to drive improvements in efficiency and quality across the central laboratory business. Apollo provides for global standardization of requisitions, reports, kits, barcode labels, as well as scientific information, and improves the accuracy and speed of sample reception and processing.

Accuracy exceeds the industry standard for data verification through blinded double data entry, dynamic kit identification and expected component inventories. Automated investigator notice delivery of data clarification requests. Automated test cancellation of compromised or expired components.

• Pre-labeled tubes: Each kit is assigned a unique kit number, and each kit component (tubes and cryovials) are assigned a unique component machine readable barcode down to the level of matrix (For example: 1 collection tube, that is aliquotted into 2 cryovials, each will have a unique barcode).
• Requisitions: Effective tracking (and data cleaning) of samples starts with the requisition. MDS requisitions have been engineered from the ground up to simplify and insure accuracy. They account for the collection time point, unique identifier per time point/aliquot and confirm on the requisition if the sample has or has not been collected.
• Tracking Samples through their life cycle: Our system knows the expected path (life cycle) for each tube. Accurately tracking site shipments and  expected returned materials. As samples are received they are scanned into APOLLO CLPM™, updating the programmed life cycle for that specific sample.

Project leaders have an arsenal of dashboards and metrics that span all aspects of a study. From kit production, distribution and inventory to receiving trends and test status and storage locations, visibility of the project is unparalleled by other systems. All the information to manage a trial resides in a single system allowing the program leader to reference detailed investigator demographics for better support and issue resolution. 

Time is then focused on managing the program rather than tracking down information and building reports.

Our project leaders have full access to customize the APOLLO CLPM™ to fit the requirements of each study. Working through APOLLO: Setup™  intelligent study configuration menus and forms, every aspect of the trial is defined and harmonized globally to participating facilities.

Sample Kits are dynamically specified by project leaders to assure compliance and each component is tracked and managed for expiration through the entire lifecycle of the study.

Since APOLLO CLPM™ manages every aspect of Global Central Laboratory operations, components are labeled once and tracked through their lifecycle regardless of their chain of custody.  This level of global visibility allows for dynamic routing of kits and components through any facility with constant awareness of the stability limits of every component.

Developed to manage and track kits deployed from multiple assembly facilities, coupled with the expertise of logistics specialists, APOLLO: KLM™ can manage sample kit resources globally to leverage distributed depot architectures and reduce cost and study start time.

Through APOLLO: Stability™, a module that proactively tracks the fidelity of all matrixes, MDS ensures that all tests are run and reported within their appropriate window of stability maximizing accuracy and delivering Quality on Time™ for each test value.

This was a unique feature built into the APOLLO CLPM™ system in order to provide sites with automated fax to recall frozen samples maintained at sites, with a complete list of expected samples at the site.

Quality on Time™ results with APOLLO:RDA™ (Remote Data Access)
APOLLO:RDA™ module shares with our clients the same real-time data and statistics that our Project managers and alliance managers use to manage each project. Our customizable dashboards allow each participant to keep critical factors top of mind to proactively manage issues before they can impact a trial. Get the results when and where you want them through automated fax, online through APOLLO:RDA™ and Electronic data transfer.

Through detailed performance graphs, customizable reports and early warning flags we provide our clients clear visibility into the status of their programs anytime from any web accessible system down to the test level.
