IQVIA becomes first DCT program to demonstrate commitment to data protection in Europe

IQVIA (NYSE:IQV), a leading global provider of advanced analytics, technology solutions and contract services to the life sciences industry, today announced its Decentralized Clinical Trial (DCT) program has received GDPR compliance validation from TRUSTArc. This marks the first instance of a DCT service receiving this European data privacy validation.

TRUSTArc’s third-party validation demonstrates that IQVIA’s DCT program processes personal data in accordance with GDPR, allowing customers to address participant and investigator privacy concerns that may arise because of their participation in decentralized trials.

“At IQVIA, we are committed to delivering decentralized studies, we recognize the criticality of patient data protection in doing this and we understand the focus on data protection by European regulators,” said Ronan Brown, SVP and head of Patient Centric Solutions & Decentralized Trials. “IQVIA is proud to have this validation prove our longstanding dedication to data protection in decentralized trials.”

TRUSTArc maps it’s GDPR Validation requirements to applicable GDPR Articles and ISO 27001 standards, alongside the standards of it’s own Privacy and Data Governance Accountability Framework. This validation is yet another step IQVIA has taken to enable DCTs to be brought to a wider group of participants, improving diversity, sustainability, and trust in clinical development.

“Achieving a GDPR validation demonstrates IQVIA’s commitment to ensuring the highest standards of delivering decentralized studies to the people it serves,” said Chris Babel, CEO, TRUSTArc. “Organizations of all sizes must become privacy-forward to earn the trust of their customers. IQVIA has consistently prioritized being privacy-forward to earn the trust of their customers and the TRUSTArc GDPR and CCPA Validations reinforce that standing.”
