mIRT
Clinical trial supply management and patient randomization with real-time tracking, forecasting, and regulatory compliance.
Overview
mIRT is an RTSM (Randomization and Trial Supply Management) / IRT (Interactive Response Technology) software platform developed by DDi, designed for sponsors, sites, and patients involved in global clinical trials. It addresses the full lifecycle of clinical supply management, from planning and forecasting through to inventory management, drug accountability, and regulatory compliance. mIRT is intended to reduce the risks, complexities, workload, time, and costs associated with running clinical studies at scale.
The platform is structured around a modular, end-to-end approach, offering both a no-build configuration option for rapid deployment and a tailored option for complex, protocol-specific requirements. It supports advanced randomization methods, master protocols, basket trials, and multi-study bundling.
Core Modules and Capabilities
- mIRT Xpress is a ready-to-use, no-build platform that eliminates dependency on developers or vendors. Users configure it through an intuitive UI, reducing setup time and increasing study flexibility.
- mIRT (full platform) supports protocol-specific requirements including advanced randomization methods, master protocols, and basket trials, with real-time tracking for site, study, and subject management.
- mIRT Supplies is a dedicated clinical supplies forecasting and management module. It integrates with other tools and allows users to create and compare supply scenarios against trial objectives. It supports multiple forecasting models including Modified Holt, Moving Average, and Croston, providing a visual, interactive approach to supply chain optimization.
