Exploring the role of Interactive Response Technology and Electronic Clinical Outcome Assessment in enhancing oncology clinical research
Oncology clinical trials are notably challenging, with long durations and low success rates. In 2022, only 3.5% of these trials were successful, and the process is complicated by recruitment difficulties, high mortality rates, and complex treatments. This whitepaper explores how eClinical technologies, particularly Interactive Response Technology (IRT) and Electronic Clinical Outcome Assessment (eCOA), are helping to address these challenges. IRT systems offer flexibility in managing adaptive treatments, optimizing drug supply, and streamlining operational tasks, while eCOA creates efficient collection of patient-reported outcomes, vital for assessing quality of life and treatment efficacy. The paper presents case studies from Suvoda, showcasing how eClinical solutions have successfully managed complex trials across various oncology indications. The integration of these technologies is crucial for future oncology trials, offering patient-centric solutions, operational efficiency, and agility in research.
