In Conduct of Decentralized Trials - Patient "IS" the Source

CONFERENCE PRESENTATION · SCDM 2021 Global Conference
In Conduct of Decentralized Trials - Patient "IS" the Source
  • Session Type: Oral Presentation
  • Session Level: Intermediate
Overview
In today’s new environment, the Patient has become the central focus and challenge for clinical trials. Dramatic progress mushroomed after COVID and regulatory direction encouraged Sponsors in their approach to decentralized clinical trials (DCT). The goal of this panel is to discuss the new patient centric model for clinical trials, challenges found in globalization of clinical trials, successful strategies for including wearables, RWE/RWD, ePRO/eCOA, eSource, and analytics that disrupt the traditional model for clinical trial partnering and patient participation. Included in this presentation will be a case study using electronic medical records (EMR) and a deeper dive into medical claims data used in decentralized clinical trials.
What You'll Learn
  • When the Patient is the Source in DCT, what are best practices for data management when moving to a hybrid or virtual setting?
  • What are the globalization challenges impacting the implementation of DCT?
  • What are best practices for Sponsors and CROs when it comes to leveraging Electronic Health Records and Medical Claims Data?
  • In a case study, what are the lessons learned from challenges, limitations and lessons learned from employing EHR in a DCT?
