Clinical Trials Logistics
Bringing a new drug to market is a complex and extensive journey. As a result, it demands significant time, resources, and investment.
With this in mind, CRYOPDP tailors logistics solutions to meet the needs from the outset, based on a clear understanding of each clinical trial’s unique protocol, lanes, and temperature needs. Whether in early drug development or later trial phases, the goal is to keep shipments within range, maintain a clear chain of custody, and document every handover so logistics stay compliant and trial operations remain consistent across multi-country routes.
Precision-Driven Logistics Across All Phases
Clinical trials don’t fail because a shipment is difficult. They fail when control slips in the middle. A delay at a hub, an unclear handover, a missing record, or a temperature question that nobody can answer fast enough.
CRYOPDP supports temperature-controlled logistics for investigational medicinal products (IMPs) with one clear aim: keep shipments within range and keep the chain of custody clear from pickup to delivery. That means defined SOPs, GDP-aligned handling, and documentation completed as the shipment moves, not rebuilt afterwards.
Across early development and later phases, the approach stays consistent. Plan the lane, control the handovers, and have contingency options ready when timelines or routes change.

Tailor-Made Logistics for Every Clinical Trials Phase
Clinical trials are complex, and trial logistics must evolve as each phase progresses.
CRYOPDP customises logistics programmes from early development through to Phase IV, aligned to the protocol, lanes, and temperature requirements. In parallel, the team manages risk, navigates customs, handles import and export processes, and maintains GDP/GxP-aligned documentation and handovers, so shipments keep moving and records stay clear at every step.
