Dynamic consent management for biobanks and sample operations

Dynamic consent management for biobanks and sample operations

Give participants a secure way to update or re-consent — and gain centralized visibility into sample rights, metadata, and reuse eligibility.

Give participants a secure way to update or re-consent — and gain centralized visibility into sample rights, metadata, and reuse eligibility.

Close the consent gap — before and after study close

A consent governance layer designed to operate independently of any EDC.

Post-site closure identity verification

Centralized, multilingual consent across all versions, trials, and countries

Consent linkage to biospecimen metadata

Standalone compatibility with any EDC

Sample chain-of-custody traceability

Automated downstream updates to LIMS, biobanks, analysis pipelines

Protect yourself from consent-related exposure years after site closeout.

  • Post-trial withdrawals + re-consent with audit trails

  • Identity verification without active sites

  • Automated updates to biobanks and metadata systems

  • Eliminates reliance on site staff post-lock

From reuse, to reclassification, to destruction, unlock the true value of your biobank.

  • Identify which samples can be reused, destroyed, or reclassified

  • Prioritize the highest-value specimens

  • Reduce storage cost while increasing biobank value

  • Power smart inventory management grounded in participant rights

  • Shift your biobank from passive storage to an active research asset

Two ways to get started

During trial

Launch dynamic consent at enrollment or mid-study

  • Capture versioned, IRB-approved consent digitally or via paper ingestion

  • If a hybrid study, link participants securely while sites are active

  • Enable future-use and post-trial permissions upfront

  • Support protocol amendments and re-consent in real time

  • Maintain a continuous, auditable consent record from day one

  • Seamlessly integrate with EDC / eConsent systems

Post-trial

Re-contact participants after study close-out

  • Verify identity remotely without site involvement or logins

  • Digitize and manage legacy or paper consents

  • Present new consent requests for reuse, follow-up, or withdrawal

  • Allow participants to grant, decline, or withdraw consent anytime

  • Deliver real-time visibility into consent status for sponsors

  • Preserve a centralized, audit-ready consent record across studies and countries

Introducing the first end-to-end biospecimen intelligence solution

 The Integrated Specimen Management Suite powered by Embleema & Astoriom is the first end-to-end biospecimen intelligence solution — unifying sample consent and clinical data.

Clinical, patient & sample data with consent intelligence
DIGITAL
  • Enrich samples with clinical & demographic metadata

  • Centralized consent information for sample uses  across studies and countries

  • Participant recontact & re-consent workflows for compliance and sample reuse

Sample stewardship & global continuity
PHYSICAL
  • Ambient → cryo biorepository storage

  • Stability and biorepository solutions across the sample lifecycle

  • Chain of custody + compliant handling

  • Long-term preservation and logistics support

Sample Manager Dashboard
  • Real-time visibility of consent information for sample use across studies and countries

  • Unified clinical and sample metadata in one place

  • Request and obtain consent for new uses of stored samples 

  • Unlock compliant secondary use of existing samples
