Data Management

Losing Internal Data Control

Whether a sponsor organization has made a business case to outsource its clinical trial data management or has yet to develop its own in-house data management expertise, there is a significant, ongoing predicament in the burgeoning bio-pharma industry: a lack of senior data management talent. Full service outsourcing of a sponsor’s clinical trial has become a widely used option. Commonly, sponsor companies don’t fully embrace the efficacy and value of fully outsourcing their entire clinical trial. That’s because relying on a remote data management model has an inherent flaw from the sponsors’ perspective: lack of internal control over their highly proprietary clinical trial data.

Gaining Internal Data Control

What if there were a cadre of senior data managers who partner with your staff throughout the clinical trial lifecycle? What if this team manages your trial data externally, but acts as a responsive, internal partner and ensures that your staff always has real-time access to your trial data?

Focused exclusively on "End-to-end eData Management," our consulting and technical solutions organization applies an average of 16 years of data management experience to the leadership of all projects. All of our data managers have managed clinical trial data from CRF design to database lock, in both paper- and EDC-based trials. We are conversant with several EDC platforms, including Medidata's Rave® and PhaseForward's InForm™, in more than 30 theraupeutic and device areas.

Vulnerable vs. Empowered

The CRO data management model leaves the sponsor vulnerable to risks:

• Possessing only limited knowledge of who's managing your data at CRO
• Lacking timely reports for analyzing your clinical trial data
• Fearing surprises in your data well into the trial
• Feeling no wiser about managing your clinical trial data than before the trial
• Feeling abandoned to the data management needs of larger CRO customers

eClinical Solutions Data Managers empower you to take control of your data. We help you leverage your data to make decisions and standardize your data across clinical trials.
