Veeva Systems (VEEV - Free Report) recently announced that Idorsia Pharmaceuticals Ltd has expanded its use of Veeva Vault Clinical Suite applications. This expansion includes Veeva Vault Clinical Data Management Suite (“CDMS”) for electronic data capture and coding.

Being a biopharmaceutical company with a broad portfolio of novel drugs in its pipeline, Idorsia is currently aiming to use Vault CDMS for all new trials.

The growing adoption of Veeva Systems’ applications is expected to provide a significant boost to the company’s Veeva Vault Clinical suite, a component of the broader Veeva Development Cloud product line of the company’s Life Sciences segment.

Significance of the Adoption

Veeva Systems’ Vault CDMS provides an advanced cloud application suite that is expected to enable Idorsia to expedite its study builds and speed up trial execution. Idorsia’s management believes that the partnership with Veeva Systems will provide greater speed and agility to its clinical trials, given the growing complexity of trial design and rise of clinical data sources.

Per Veeva Systems’ management, the adoption of its cloud application suite will likely support Idorsia’s clinical systems strategy with modern applications that can match up with the pace and complexity of present-day studies.

Industry Prospects

Per a report by Marketsandresearch.biz, the global clinical data management system market was estimated to be $1574.8 million in 2021 and is projected to reach $4294.1 million by 2028 at a CAGR of 15.4%.

Given the market potential, growing adoption of the company’s applications is expected to strengthen its position in the global cloud application space.
