Dr Reddy's Laboratories has deployed on-line clinical trails on new formulation products.

Currently, on-line trails are underway for Gatifloxacin (an antibiotic drug invented by Bristol Myers Squibb) and Zafirlukast (an anti-asthma product by Astra Zeneca) at various centers in Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai, Kolkatta and Hyderabad. These products are yet to be introduced in the Indian market, according to a Dr Reddy's spokesperson.

The on-line facility fastens clinical trails by six to eight weeks by using the Internet for electronic data-capturing and analysis from multiple trail centres.

The application has features to ensure fast and better management of multi-centric trails and reduce the cost of interaction, the company said in a release.

The software and website application for clinical trails were conceived and designed by the company in collaboration with Quad-One Technologies, a city-based information technology company, the release added.

The application uses sophisticated tools to provide data output which can be directly used for statistical analysis, it said.
