AGENDA

  • What has been your biggest cost "guzzler"?
  • Smart Digitization
  • Effective Study Archiving Process
  • Robust Analytics

 

BIGGEST COST "GUZZLERS"?

 

PAPER

  • Forces many duplicate copies of the same document in multiple locations.
    • There is no centralized location where all parties can instantly access documents on demand.

 

  • Paper requires much more manual labor to manage.

 

SMART DIGITIZATION

  • Use a robust digital form creator.
    • Provide an efficient mechanism to collect clinical information digitally.
    • Instead of filling out monitoring visit reports on paper forms, CRAs should be able to fill them out digitally based on a template available in eClinical system.

 

  • A robust digital form creator allows creating any type of forms that can be hosted directly in your platform.

 

  • Benefits
    • Large savings in reviewer productivity
    • Helps eliminate multiple cluttered Excel trackers
    • Bypass paper inventory hassles
    • Avoid scanning, OCR, initial base coding
    • All of which require enormous amounts of manual labor, hence, of course, increased COSTS.

 

  • Select an integrated platform that connects feasibility, study start up & eTMF.
    • Feasibility
      • ​​​​​​​CDA
      • Contract Dependencies
      • Investigative Site IRB Info
      • IS Contact Info
      • IS Lab Info
      • Principal Investigator Research Experience
      • Country Feasibility
    • Study Start Up
      • CDA
      • Contract (MSA)
      • IRB
      • IS Qualifications
      • Country Approvals
    • eTMF
      • IS Documents
      • Country Documents

 

  • Ensure that the platform can share data across process steps.
    • ​​​​​​​Feasibility
    • Study Start Up
    • Trial Master File
    • Archival

 

EFFECTIVE STUDY ARCHIVING PROCESS

  • Archive data in entity listings - example.
    • ​​​​​​​IRB Listing
      • Location
      • Meeting Schedule
      • Required Documents
    • Investigative Site Listing
      • Contact Information
      • Qualification Documents
      • IRB Information
      • Lab Information
      • Indication/Therapeutic Area
      • EDC/Subject Enrollment Data
    • Country Regulatory Listing
      • Required Documents
      • Submission Requirements
    • Patient Recruitment Listing
      • Screening Information
      • Investigative Site Information
      • Study Information

 

  • Benefits
    • ​​​​​​​Over time it eliminates the need to get listings from 3rd party vendors for each new study.
    • It offers a set of good pre-qualified investigative sites with their proven track records from past studies.
    • It provides reliable and readily available information about essential study parties.
      • IRBs
      • Sites
      • Countries

 

ROBUST ANALYTICS PLATFORM

  • What should you be looking for in a good analytics engine?
    • ​​​​​​​Fully integrated with systems that you use to run your clinical studies.
    • Ability to easily exchange data with external systems over standard channels such as web services.
    • Ability to run strategic aggregate reports across all past and current studies to identify time lapses between phases, activities, and processes to help with future budget and schedule planning.
    • Ability to quickly extract initial sets of information about essential parties for each new study based on study characteristics such as indication or therapeutic area or location.
