Rapid eSource build and deployment
Built, tested, and deployed study source forms on aggressive sponsor timelines—keeping trials live without disrupting ongoing operations.
Case study
Digital eSource partnership at CenExel Anaheim
How a multi-year partnership helped a leading research site transition from paper to digital eSource—with rapid study startup, higher throughput, and independent digital operations.
The challenge
CenExel is one of the largest and most advanced clinical research site networks in the United States, operating high performance Phase I–IV research centers across multiple therapeutic areas.
CenExel needed to transition from paper source to a fully digital eSource environment while managing aggressive sponsor timelines and a heavy active-study load. With multiple trials already underway, the site required rapid eSource build-out, reliable testing, and a way to keep studies moving without overwhelming coordinators.
The partnership
Nexa Trials became CenExel Anaheim's dedicated eSource development partner, building and testing all study source forms and getting each trial live quickly without disrupting ongoing operations. Our team embedded directly into their workflows working alongside their coordinators, accelerating their transition to digital source and ensuring every study launched on time.
As the site scaled its digital operations, Nexa also supported data entry throughput and centralized QC, helping coordinators keep pace with enrollment and maintain clean, monitor-ready data.
Today, CenExel Anaheim independently launches and manages studies in their new eSource system with a modernized, efficient workflow built on the foundation we helped them establish.

Independent digital operations
CenExel Anaheim now fully manages and kicks off new studies in their eSource platform ™ operating self-sufficiently on the foundation established during the partnership.
What we delivered
Protocol-driven eSource design
Purpose-built eSource forms reduced entry errors, minimized queries, and produced clean, protocol-aligned data from day one.
Centralized QC during transition
QC oversight caught discrepancies early during the paper-to-digital transition—supporting faster monitoring and cleaner, monitor-ready data.
Scalable support model
Flexible remote delivery provided specialized expertise without additional hiring ™ scaling across multiple concurrent studies.
Our collaboration helped CenExel Anaheim move from paper source to a modern digital workflow—with stronger compliance, cleaner data, and a site team that could focus on what matters most: patients.
