Eight eCOA Implementation Recommendations To Ensure A Patient-Centric Experience

By Melissa Mooney, Director, eCOA Solutions Engineering

eCOAs address many emerging demands in the clinical trial landscape. eCOA solutions drive compliance with adhering to the COA strategy defined in the protocol by automating the collection of the patient’s experiences through robust and reliable electronic solutions. eCOAs also provide real-time insights that inform trial progress and demonstrate results.

Capturing the patient’s voice in the context of a clinical trial gives sponsors a quantifiable measure to transform subjective feedback into meaningful trend data. And because these measures are electronic, patients can complete them remotely, which lowers the time and burden of trial participation, while giving patients the opportunity to report their symptoms and treatment experience more frequently.
