eClinical Solutions LLC, a leading global provider of cloud-based enterprise software and software-driven clinical data services that accelerate drug development, is collaborating with Karyopharm Therapeutics (Nasdaq: KPTI) on randomized clinical trials for low-dose selinexor, an XPO1 inhibitor, in hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19. This is the first study of an XPO1 inhibitor in patients with severe viral infections. XPO1 inhibitors like selinexor (marketed as XPOVIO®) have previously shown preclinical activity against respiratory viruses, including SARS-CoV.
“The eClinical Solutions team is extremely motivated by the opportunity to contribute to finding new therapies that may treat COVID-19,” said Raj Indupuri, CEO of eClinical Solutions. “We are proud to partner with Karyopharm to support rapid data collection, cleaning and review for this program. The way they use modern technologies in clinical research to optimize data collection and analysis demonstrates their dedication to innovation not only in scientific research, but throughout the clinical development process.”
The eClinical Solutions Data Services team configured the data capture system for the trial using Medidata Rave EDC and the elluminate Clinical Data Platform for agile data management and review. The Karyopharm and eClinical Solutions teams collaborated closely to build a fully validated data database to collect data from physicians and patients in just 15 days—an accelerated timeline in order to meet the first patient milestone of this critical research initiative. The eClinical Solutions data management team is using elluminate Data Central to support data review activities for the study to ensure data is rapidly cleaned and available for medical and safety review.
“eClinical Solutions has been a valuable partner on other selinexor research programs. Their team’s knowledge of Karyopharm data standards and processes combined with their expertise in data collection platforms and clinical data management practices helped us meet our accelerated timelines for this important new research,” said Kristan Gallitano, SVP Development Operations at Karyopharm Therapeutics.
