Agentic AI for Dynamic Pricing in P1 Clinical Trial for Vaccine

AI-Driven Pricing Optimization for Phase I Vaccine Clinical Trials

Customer: Small Biotech Company

Solution Section

Problem Statement: Traditional Clinical Trial Pricing Challenges

A small biotech company conducting a Phase I clinical trial for a viral vaccine faced multiple operational and financial obstacles:

Unpredictable Trial Costs:
Due to real-time changes in dosage levels and safety data.

Slow Contracting:
Manual site/vendor contracting took weeks, stalling trial initiation.

Inadequate Cost Transparency:
Poor visibility into pricing shifts caused by site/lab selection or regulatory adaptations.

Risk of Budget Overruns:
Inability to dynamically adjust trial pricing based on real-world conditions increased financial risk.

These inefficiencies delayed time-to-market and jeopardized financial planning for adaptive clinical trials.
