Essentra Packaging—a multinational secondary packaging manufacturer specializing in the supply of cartons, labels, leaflets and printed foils for the global healthcare, personal care, and beauty industries—second webinar, on February 22 at 15.00 GMT, will host a panel of experts who will discuss the challenges and opportunities home-based clinical trials create for patients and clinical trial owners. In addition, the group will address clinical trial process management and the use of smart packaging technologies to make administration easier.

Diarmuid Wilson, business development director, clinical trials at Essentra Packaging, says, “As we emerge out of the pandemic, the number of clinical trials around the world is accelerating again and there is a shift to home-based trials to create flexibility and avoid management challenges from the pandemic. At Essentra Packaging, we are working on a range of innovations with partners to develop smart packaging solutions that make the home clinical trial process simple and easier to manage. From the use of track and trace to time and temperature indicators, new e-labels and e-leaflets, to the use of serialization and randomization, there are tremendous opportunities for trial owners to increase their efficiency and accuracy through their packaging choices.”

The webinar will last for one hour, with a short introduction followed by a panellist roundtable and question and answer session including speakers from PCI Pharma Services, GSK and RxSource Ltd.
