Expertly managing clinical trial supplies, for people at home, in places all over the world
The ability to reach diverse patient populations and reduce the burden for people taking part in a clinical trial is imperative. Our Direct to Patient solution, Almac to Patient, has been developed with a patient-centric approach, enabling sponsors to include patient homes as part of their decentralised clinical trial strategy.
We understand that patient recruitment and retention is one of the biggest challenges to the success of clinical trials. Our supply chain experts, global quality, and clinical supply infrastructure, ensures effective, convenient and personalised delivery of IMP to the front doors of patients’ homes.
We achieve this via an Almac to Patient or Site to Patient solution, depending on country requirements and protocol need; providing a controlled, complete, and care-focused approach that keeps patients at the heart of the operation, every step of the journey home.
Almac have a team of highly qualified Pharmacists who provide clinical expertise on dispensing, preparation and administration of IMP. Our licensed Pharmacies ensure compliance and quality, providing peace of mind to sponsors and patients.
End-to-end control
Almac to Patient provides end-to-end control with bespoke supply chain design; expert guidance on drug forecasting, inventory strategy, and IRT set-up; GDPR and HIPAA compliant software underpinned by our global quality framework; encrypted PII and study blinding processes; and visualisation of the entire process, as part of the overall clinical trial.

We have experience across all phases and therapeutic areas, and the flexibility to meet protocol and country-specific needs. With Almac to Patient, expect secure, GDP courier management pathways for ambient and temperature-controlled IMP; security of delivery to patients’ homes; supporting pharmacy services; and returns management. Everything you need from one, expert partner.
