Why You Need To Engage DCT Study Vendors Earlier To Assist In Designing Decentralized Clinical Trials

There are several ways to incorporate decentralized components into clinical trials that can leverage specific solutions to create decentralized clinical trials (DCTs) or fully virtual clinical trials (sometimes called siteless trials) from the original protocol. This can be done through the incorporation of wearables and other technology, ePRO software, eConsent software, remote sample collections or drug distribution, telehealth capabilities, and much more. The key, however, to successfully running a decentralized clinical trial is being able to incorporate these components seamlessly and with as little additional cost and burden as possible.
