Case Study: Accelerating CRO study deployment at scale
A top-3 contract research organization (CRO) and a top-10 pharmaceutical company partnered with Medable to help accelerate the speed, scale, and standardization of their eCOA trials.
The two organizations had been hampered by lengthy configuration timelines, inconsistent designs across studies, and siloed processes between sponsors and their CRO partners.
By centralizing the sponsor’s preferred instruments and configurations into a reusable digital library, Medable enabled the CRO to rapidly accelerate its portfolio development and initiate new studies without starting them “from scratch.”

Medable perspective: Three points on FDA eCOA guidance
At the beginning of April 2023, the FDA published a draft of the fourth in a series of Guidance Documents entitled “Patient-Focused Drug Development: Incorporating Clinical Outcome Assessments (COA) Into Endpoints For Regulatory Decision-Making”. Once finalized these four documents will be combined and will replace the 2009 Guidance, “Patient-Reported Outcome Measures: Use in Medical Product Development to Support Labeling Claims”. Part 3, which was released in draft in June 2022, provides advice around the development and validation of new COA (including the modification of existing COA).


Back to Basics: What is a decentralized clinical trial?
In a decentralized clinical trial, part or all of the protocol occurs away from the primary study site. Instead of patients traveling, often repeatedly, to a central site for enrollment, consent, data collection or symptom monitoring, they can participate in telehealth visits from their homes, often using familiar technologies, like smartphones, tablets and wearables to transmit pertinent information. Even medications and devices can increasingly be delivered directly to a patient’s home, and a home visit from a health care professional can be arranged if necessary.
