Global Virtual Clinical Trials Market estimated close to $8 Billion (2020), is growing at above 10% CAGR
A virtual clinical trial (also known as remote/decentralized clinical trials) refers to digitally empowered clinical trial processes. The market growth is driven by growing adoption of virtual trials following outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic
Virtual
trials enable easy Patient Enrolment and Remote Monitoring
Virtual
trials are based on telemedicine and use dedicated apps for patient engagement
and tracking. They greatly reduce the financial and time burdens. In addition,
use of AI technologies can help synthesize and analyze ever-expanding data and
speed up the process. Such benefits are increasingly drawing interest of life
science companies/clinical trials sponsors into virtual clinical trials.
“AI likely to play important role in virtual clinical trials. Conversational AI for natural language processing (NLP) and image-based AI will increasingly become part of virtual trials. Conversational AI help maintain the patient-clinician engagement while imaging AI to play key role in trials that require radiology” – CTO, Leading Clinical Trial Solutions Company
VC fundings increased significantly post-Covid
The
number of venture capital funding deals have increased post Covid. There were
six deals in 2018 which increased to 18 in 2020. Most VC funding occurred in Q3
2020 (10 deals). Notably, Medable - one of the fastest growing decentralized
trials platform providers - raised $524 million from various rounds since 2020.
One of the biggest rounds occurred in October 2021, where the company received
a huge $304 million Series D funding. Growing VC funding
will enable companies to make technological advancements and increase
customer/geographic reach. This will then increase overall adoption and market
growth.
Regional Overview: Global Virtual Clinical Trials Market
Comprehensive
regional assessment of the global virtual clinical trials market suggests that US is currently the largest market for
virtual clinical trials. On the other hand, European life science/medical
device companies have not moved as rapidly to adopt virtual trials as U.S.
However, there have been developments taking place in EU those are expected to
propel the adoption steadily.
For instance, in September 2019, the Trials@Home project was launched by the
public-private partnership viz. Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) - to
augment the use of digital tools in conduct of clinical trials. This
large-scale collaborative project involves 31 members from the European
Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and
Associations (EFPIA), academia, small- and mid-sized life science companies and
patient organizations
