The landscape of pharmaceutical data science is evolving, marked by the complexity of numerous data sources and an increased demand for high-quality data early in the drug development process. The advent of new AI and adaptive trial tools underscores the importance of accessing quality data at the outset of clinical trials. Consequently, there’s a pressing need for tools that effectively manage the diverse components of this process, including tracking data sources, analyzing programs, and managing outputs.

A modern SCE (Scientific Computing Environment) solution is crucial to address these challenges. Such a solution should offer:

• The ability to integrate and refine data from various sources, making it readily accessible for use. MaxisIT’s Data Management platform excels in connecting with multiple data sources, providing capabilities for cleaning, aggregating, transforming, and harmonizing data.

• A versatile platform for statistical programming with access to multiple programming languages. MaxisIT’s SCE provides flexibility by supporting various programing languages and via BYOIDE (bring your own integrated development environment), while enabling early reviews using R/Shiny apps.

• The capacity to coordinate and oversee the multiple facets of data science projects. MaxisIT SCE enhances team collaboration, offering comprehensive audit trails and tracking for data, programs, and outputs. It provides metadata-driven automation along with auditability via “Knowledge graphs”, which makes SCE modern and future ready.
