Recognised with the 2025 FINAT Innovation Award, the new Smart Syringe Box from Schreiner MediPharm shows how modern packaging solutions can optimise clinical trials. Thanks to integrated electronics, various types of syringe packaging can now be digitised. The box enables precise tracking of drug administration in clinical trials and, with an additional temperature monitoring feature, enhances the safety of temperature-sensitive biopharmaceuticals.
Precision and efficient processes
International clinical trials require utmost precision and efficient processes. Regular and correct administration of investigational drugs is imperative, but manual processes are frequently error-prone and deviations from the dosing scheme may lead to distorted trial outcomes. The Smart Syringe Box from Schreiner MediPharm offers the solution for digital therapy monitoring. Due to a cardboard layer with easy-to-open, perforated compartments, the removal of every single syringe can be precisely captured, including the respective compartment and time stamp. All data are automatically stored in the Smart Syringe Box and transmitted to a database via NFC, Bluetooth or smartphone app.
Optionally available is an integrated temperature monitoring feature offering additional safety when handling sensitive active ingredients. Transportation and storage conditions of temperature-critical biopharmaceuticals, for instance, can be seamlessly documented. The adherence data generated thanks to the Smart Syringe Box supports both therapy tracking and adjustment of individual therapy plans. In combination with specialty software, this enables central tracking, which facilitates the documentation and analysis of the data. The innovative technology and practical benefits of the solution were recognised with the 2025 FINAT Innovation Award–an accolade that underscores the potential of the Smart Syringe Box for clinical research.
Conductive lines adapted to the packaging design
Schreiner MediPharm adapts the integrated conductive lines and electronic components precisely to the packaging design and the removal compartments for the syringes to ensure reliable functionality and ease of use. Scalable and end-to-end automated production ensures standardised and reliable product quality. The Smart Syringe Box offers numerous benefits for clinical trials: enhanced data quality, lower failure rates due to non-adherence, and optimized processes that reduce costs and accelerate the approval process for new drugs. At the same time, the need for manual documentation is eliminated, enabling higher flexibility and efficiency for complex trials. As a smart packaging system, the Smart Syringe Box combines technology, safety, and efficiency, thus setting new standards for digital applications in clinical research settings.
