BELGRADE (Serbia), July 5 (SeeNews) – Serbian outsourcing firm 2 GL has signed a partnership agreement with Swiss-based medical data informatics company Clinerion to expand its network to patients and hospitals in Southeastern Europe (SEE), the Swiss company said.
2 GL will support the expansion of the network of partner hospitals on Clinerion's Patient Network Explorer platform to Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, North Macedonia, Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Swiss company said in a statement on Thursday.
Clinerion and 2 GL’s services will accelerate access for patients and hospitals to next-generation medical treatments. Patients in the region will become more visible to sponsors for trial recruitment, and hospitals in the region will become better placed to run clinical trials, Clinerion said.
"With Patient Network Explorer, the selection of centers, patients and researchers in the region for international, sponsored trials will greatly accelerate. This is definitively the most important benefit of cooperating with Clinerion," Zoran Acimovic, CEO of 2 GL, said in the statement.
Patient Network Explorer matches patients from Clinerion’s global network of hospitals to clinical trials run by pharmaceutical sponsors. The system is based on de-identified electronic health record (EHR) data, unlinked from any identifiers, protecting patient privacy.
