First Contract Win for Instem Clinical

Instem plc (AIM: INS.L), a leading provider of IT applications to the global early development healthcare market, is pleased to announce its first contract win for its newly acquired ALPHADAS software. The contract consists of a high six-figure GBP perpetual licence plus implementation services, with ongoing annual support and maintenance.

ALPHADAS,the market leading, e-source data capture ("EDC") system and site automation software suite for early phase clinical studies, has been selected by a UK-based global leader in the provision of specialisedclinical services. ALPHADAS is now offered by Instem Clinical, formerly Logos Technologies, which was acquired by Instem in May 2013.

Replacing a more traditional 'form based' EDC system, ALPHADAS was selected for its ability to deliver an immediate and significant return on investment within the client's highly complex studies. ALPHADAS sources data direct from instrumentation, removes errors at source, tracks samples from collection to dispatch and enables critical real time data review. Further efficiencies are also delivered by ALPHADAS through its ability to track study subjects throughout the recruitment process, staff resourcing and site management and the provision of a fully visible audit trail.

Phil Reason, CEO of Instem plc, commented, "We are delighted to be able to announce a significant contract win for Instem Clinical, so quickly after it was established following the acquisition of Logos in May this year. A leader in their field and experiencing significant growth, the new client is currently working with some of the world's foremost pharmaceutical and research companies. This is a clear demonstration of the quality of the ALPHADAS software and the opportunity to expand Instem's market to early clinical studies."
