A medium-sized CRO needs to balance their resources carefully in a rapidly changing legal environment. It is vital to have the tools available to serve the needs of both international and national clients and to fine-tune the range of services.
For the core areas of clinical operations, regulatory affairs and data management, different tools are currently available either as software on a license basis or as a service provided by specialised suppliers.
The actual scope, taking the German scenario into account, is:
e-Trials (electronic data capture, e-trial tracking and e-trial management)
Electronic 'AWB' (drug surveillance)
Electronic common technical document (electronic tools for the eCTD)
e-Trials
Electronic data capture has been discussed in numerous articles and meetings for a considerable period of time. The advantages are numerous, the most important, among others, being:
Rapidly available clinical data drives a trial forward with fast decision-making processes
To change the role of the CRA
To avoid the bottleneck for data management in the data cleaning and query resolution prior to database lock
To encourage investigators to complete the electronic case report form quickly and to ease the process of reporting
