Older participant engages with eConsent

How partnership ensured a successful first digital trial

For the last twenty years, clinical trials have been steadily digitizing. 

As the EDC and eTMF systems of the early 2000s gave way to the eCOA and eConsent tools of the 2010s, site, and participant experiences throughout clinical research were improved. 

Since our inception in 2015, Medable has conducted over 300+ digital and decentralized trials using eCOA, eConsent, telehealth, and more. However, just as a bell curve shows, adoption rates for new technologies can wildly vary across our industry. While some organizations quickly implement new technologies, others take a more cautious approach.

Back to basics: What is a clinical trial platform?

Modern clinical trials employ various digital-based tools and technologies designed to increase the speed, accuracy, and ease of conducting clinical trials. In the best-case scenario, these tools are housed in the same experience or a  “clinical trial platform.” 

Clinical trial platforms are software-based, web-based, and/or cloud-based solutions that facilitate clinical trial research throughout its entire lifecycle. They offer a complete technology ecosystem that connects patients, research sites, and trial sponsors from patient recruitment to close out and data submission. Users of clinical trial platforms can access and operationalize all of their digital-based tools through this connected platform. Platforms can prevent users from accessing parts of the platform not permitted for them. For instance, participants can not view other participants' data or gain access to tools meant for sites. Other users, like sponsors’ study teams, have access to the full suite of tools as needed based on their roles.

Clinical Leader Solutions Expo: eCOA/ePRO

The next level of clinical trial data capture is here. Gone are the days of paper, illegible handwriting, and data quality nightmares. eCOA, or electronic Clinical Outcome Assessments, and ePRO, or electronic Patient-Reported Outcomes, are revolutionizing the way clinical trials generate data. Both leverage digital tools to collect information electronically, offering a treasure trove of benefits. eCOA acts as the umbrella term, encompassing data from various sources like patients (ePRO), clinicians, observers, and even performance-based assessments. This holistic approach paints a more complete picture of a patient's experience. ePRO, as a subset, shines the spotlight directly on the patient's voice, capturing their symptoms, quality of life, and other critical self-reported measures.

Hear from industry leaders at this unique virtual event showcasing the eCOA/ePRO solutions of partners who are ready to help you with your clinical trial data capture needs.  Early registration is open via the form to your right.
