Electronic Data Capture

As the costs of clinical studies rise, and the demand to quickly deliver therapies to market intensifies, renewed emphasis is placed on technology solutions such as Electronic Data Capture (EDC) to control operational costs and expedite time-to-market. By capturing data electronically, and storing the data in advanced databases, key clinical constituents — investigators, sponsors, research organizations and regulatory agencies — can gain access and visibility into study data sooner for earlier insight into the conduct of studies. In turn, earlier insights enable study decisions to be made in a timely manner during the clinical development cycle.

Advanced EDC technology incorporates streamlined study design, workflow, discrepancy management, coding, integration standards, regulatory compliance, and extensive reporting and analysis into the overall solution. Phase Forward’s InForm™ Integrated Trial Management (ITM) system delivers all of this functionality in an award-winning EDC solution that has already been used successfully in over 1,300 trials.
