Exploiting ‘Sideband’ Data
There is much for sponsors to consider when purchasing an EDC system
beyond its ability to collect patient demographic and clinical data,
says John Murray, co-founder of Procela Partners, a Dublin-based global
management consulting firm ...
...EDC systems could well be the mechanism enabling the “adaptive trial” process by which dosing regimens get quickly modified based on patient response, thereby finalizing trials sooner, says Murray. Linkage to trial supply systems would further eliminate product waste.
... All the major study sponsors have converted to EDC
and will be offloading work only to CROs that have done likewise.
etrials Worldwide built a “clever” technology transfer model whereby
CROs can generate revenues as software service providers.
