3:00 pmRemote-Based Monitoring Deployments in Global Clinical Trials: Case Study

This presentation will describe an implementation of risk-based monitoring (RBM) aimed at improving data quality and patient safety, while significantly reducing development costs. The initial focus of cost reduction was to be achieved by reducing the number of on-site visits and implementing a risk-based approach to site management. The speaker will explain how this evolved into a centralized data monitoring solution that optimized resources, while maintaining and/or improving data quality, throughout the study.

This was a truly collaborative approach, using the client’s systems with Quintiles data management staff driving much of the execution in collaboration with client study teams and global site monitoring providers. The scope included:

• reducing source document verification (SDV)

• increasing use of remote monitoring; reducing the number of onsite visits

• enabling triggered monitoring

• expanding to centralized medical and clinical data review

Quintiles Infosario-based applications were used to monitor cleanliness status of the subject and also to perform medical review. Innovative tools were developed and deployed for data readiness, data visualization and project management.

The outcome of the project has resulted in improved data with metrics far exceeding the targeted industry standard improvement goals. The client has continued to use this approach for more studies.

Badhri SrinivasanSVP and Global Head, Data & Safety Monitoring, Quintiles

3:30 pmCompany Spotlight Presentations: Innovative Technologies and Services that Drive Efficiencies in Global Clinical Trials

• How to use technologies to better plan and design global clinical trials

• How you can change your business model and manage clinical trials with “e-source”

• The use of mobile technologies, i.e. remote ECGs and home monitoring

• Quality data capture and management

• The use of digital and social media technologies for patient recruitment and engagement
