NEWARK, DE — QPS Holdings, LLC has implemented Oracle Argus, a widely used pharmacovigilance platform, in a move aimed at strengthening patient safety oversight and regulatory compliance across its clinical trial programs.
The adoption of the Oracle Argus drug safety system is designed to enhance how QPS captures, manages, and reports adverse events, aligning its operations with global regulatory requirements as clinical development portfolios grow in size and complexity.
“Ensuring patient safety and data integrity is at the heart of what we do when conducting clinical trials,” said Derek Grimes, executive vice president of QPS. “Oracle Argus provides us with a robust, scalable solution to support the growing needs of our customers’ clinical trial portfolios and the evolving expectations of regulatory authorities worldwide.”
Oracle Argus is considered an industry-standard system for safety case management, supporting pharmacovigilance activities from early-stage trials through post-marketing surveillance. QPS said the platform will improve oversight and traceability across all phases of clinical trials while streamlining workflows tied to safety reporting.
“Oracle Argus provides QPS Holdings, LLC with a trusted, globally recognized drug safety platform that supports compliance with stringent pharmacovigilance standards and regulations,” said Seema Verma, executive vice president and general manager of Oracle Health and Life Sciences. She said the system enables end-to-end safety operations and insights at scale.
QPS said the deployment will allow it to offer clients enhanced safety monitoring, more efficient regulatory reporting for global submissions, and improved management of safety data as regulatory scrutiny intensifies worldwide.
The move reflects a broader trend among contract research organizations to invest in enterprise-grade safety systems as drug developers face rising expectations around transparency, data integrity, and patient protection in clinical research.
