Cognizant’s CDISC Gateway solution addresses the complexity in the interchange/transfer of clinical data for bio-pharmaceutical organizations as well as the EDC vendors. This complexity occurs due to:
 
  • Presence of multiple generations of systems and formats due to rapid technology evolution
  • Existence of multiple source, storage, and analysis systems, each with its own incompatible data formats and interfaces
  • Difficulty during transition due to system incompatibility
  • Difficulty in integration of data from different EDC vendors with traditional CDM systems
  • Mergers and acquisitions
 
With the evolution of CDISC standards addressing these issues, it was necessary to develop tools and services to implement these standards and make them accessible to the industry.
 
Cognizant has developed a tool 'CDISC Gateway', which provides a powerful visual means to develop data mappings and transforms from relational databases to CDISC XML and vice versa. It facilitates the rapid creation of any of the CDISC data model specifications, thereby shortening study set-up time, increasing quality, and improving business processes.
 
With extensive domain, technology, and business process expertise in the Healthcare and Life Sciences industry, Cognizant is the preferred partner for several pharmaceutical companies.
