Following months of collaboration with the Liquent Customer Advisory Board, and in response to the exacting demands of the life sciences market and its regulatory authorities, InSight Publisher has been developed to appeal to existing Liquent CoreDossier® and Liquent EZsubs® customers, as well as to entice new customers to the fold. Delegates at the forthcoming DIA 2005 event in Washington will be among the first to gain an early preview of this new electronic publishing system that is positioned to change the landscape of life sciences publishing processes.

Jim Nichols is Liquent's Vice President of Product Strategy and Marketing, "We have just completed our annual Liquent 2005 Regulatory Submissions Trends survey and the decision to launch InSight Publisher couldn't be more timely." Jim continues, "More than three-quarters of survey respondents stated their plan to migrate to the eCTD, one third of which plan to do so in the next ten to eighteen months. InSight Publisher is perfectly positioned to respond to this planned migration by offering the most modern, comprehensive and intuitive solution to handle these publishing demands."

As part of Liquent's ongoing commitment to the hundreds of life sciences companies that rely on its technologies to control the production and publishing of their electronic documents, Liquent has announced that it is offering InSight Publisher free of any license fee to all existing CoreDossier and EZsubs clients as part of their maintenance agreements. (See customer news release dated 27.06.05 for qualifying details). This exceptional decision is fuelled by Liquent's relentless focus on customer service and a commitment to provide its customers with a roadmap of electronic publishing solutions that manage their publishing needs both now and in the future.

Speaking of Liquent's announcement to offer InSight Publisher to customers as a part of their ongoing annual maintenance agreements, Gerhard Schlueter, Head of Global Regulatory Operations at Bayer HealthCare's Pharmaceutical Division commented, "Liquent's approach is in line with our expectations and planning. This will enable us to have a smooth transition from EZsubs to InSight Publisher and will support the further eCTD implementation."

InSight Publisher, which will be generally available in August 2005, delivers unrivalled publishing functionality coupled with an intuitive user interface that will boost Liquent's position as the leader in regulatory solutions for the life sciences sector. In its initial release, InSight Publisher will provide complete eCTD submission publishing and lifecycle management. In subsequent releases, InSight Publisher will expand to also enable creation of paper CTD submissions from an original eCTD as well as complete paper submission publishing capabilities.

InSight Publisher is also offered as an integrated module of Liquent's regulatory product management suite, InSight Manager, thereby boosting its position as the most comprehensive product management lifecycle solution for the life sciences market. InSight Manager Release 2.0 will also be launched at the DIA 2005 event and its boasts extended capabilities including - Registration planning & tracking; Product detail management, Submission planning & tracking and Registered document analysis.

InSight Publisher and InSight Manager 2.0 are available for demonstration at the DIA's 41st Annual Meeting in Washington on June 26th through 30th. Visit the Liquent booth, number 251.
