A better look at your data

eCOA stands for electronic clinical outcome assessment and uses electronic devices like tablets, desktop computers, and phones to collect data from trial participants. Participants complete diaries, questionnaires, or other prompts to communicate how they are feeling or functioning during the course of a clinical trial. eCOAs are part of the decentralized clinical trial (DCT) methodology and are essential to understanding whether a drug is reducing symptoms and improving patients’ quality of life.

Medable’s eCOA offering is part of our broader evidence generation offering: Patient-First Data Collection.  Medable’s tools allow teams to build eCOA instruments (both validated instruments and eDiaries) that meet industry standards. Data collected from this system can be used for primary endpoints in pivotal studies. Study teams can store instruments, including translations, in a library for rapid deployment in future studies. Dashboards keep teams informed of all startup activities along the way. Teams may also access their library of prebuilt, validated instruments to improve study startup.

Yes. Medable's platform is multimodal, meaning patients can access our interface through the Patient app or a web browser. A BYOD model allows patients to use their own smartphone or other device for data capture during a site visit or remotely. Participants using devices they are already familiar with may lead to better compliance and ultimately, a better clinical trial experience. However, since some participants may be hesitant to download an app on their own device, or may not own a device that meets the requirements, it’s important to anticipate a percentage of provisioned devices, even in trials adopting a BYOD strategy.

Yes, Medable has a partnership with Withings who offers a range of medical grade and compliant devices. Adding protocol complexities like connected sensors and wearables will effect the study build time.

Medable's scalable solutions provide pathways to collect and assess objective and subjective patient data in a comprehensive, compliant, and standard manner allowing sponsors to discover clinically meaningful insights in real-time. And our web-based patient application provides a more patient-centric experience via seamless in-app reminders and task notifications, decreasing the likelihood of dropouts, inconsistent and inaccurate data and missed patient visits.
