CLINICAL DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

INTRODUCTION

A Clinical Data Management System or CDMS is used in clinical research to manage the data generated by the conduction of a clinical trial. The clinical trial data gathered at the investigator site in the Case Report Form(CRF) is stored in the CDMS.

CRF is a paper or electronic questionnaire, used as a tool by the sponsor of the clinical trial to collect data on each patient from each participating site.

CDMS also performs coding of data.Standard dictionaries of Adverse Event Terms(Multiple terms, developed by different cancer therapy modalities, e.g. acute/late effect, side effect, complication, etc.) and Medication/Drug Names can be loaded into the CDMS,enabling matching of common abbreviations and mapping them to the correct term. For e.g., ASA could be mapped to Aspirin.

Popular Adverse Event dictionaries : MedDRA and WHOART

Popular Medication dictionaries : COSTART and WHO-DRUG.

At the end of the clinical trial, the dataset in the CDMS is analysed and sent to the regulatory authorities for approval.

CLINICAL DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

NEED FOR CLINICAL DATA MANAGEMENT

According to Cutting Edge Information, the total research and development cost incurred is running overboard by 37%, causing pharma company budgets to exceed $400 million in total expenses.

Drug companies need to find ways to cut both costs and time from the clinical development process.

Incorporating Clinical Data Management lets managers and team members: Get an accurate, real-time view of clinical trial forecasts and budgets Effectively use critical information and collaboratively assess performance.

Ultimately, goals are reached sooner, and the entire process is more cost-efficient.

The 3 principal factors that govern Clinical Data Management are: Aggregation of data and its Dissemination via an open framework Configuring Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) such as metrics specific to trial, patient retention and

enrollment rates, etc. Updating of tools - from spreadsheets to scorecards and dashboards - to limit error, improve control,

enhance visibility, and boost accountability.

FUNDAMENTALS OF CLINICAL TRIAL SOFTWARE

Today’s business-intelligence softwares are able to:

Accelerate study timeline and control costs without sacrificing the quality of study results

Provide accurate predictions of clinical trial operating expenses

Enable robust modeling of an entire development program

Provide data and forecasts based on actual activity and spending

Facilitate recruiting, screening, scheduling and tracking patients and also assist with the stringent requirements regarding doctors and institutions

Integrate seamlessly with other financial and operations software

Automatically adjust for foreign exchange rates

Update accounting information real-time

Ensure compliance with HIPAA, FDA regulatory guidelines, GCP, 21 CFR Part 11 and even with European regulatory guidelines

Facilitate better management at every level, for a faster, more cost-efficient process

Pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and research organisations can all benefit from clinical trial software. Clinical trials data management software assists with all aspects of a trial - from enrollment to study submission to study archiving. Clinical trial software can be used for small Phase 1 trials or large studies with thousands of participants.

The premise of the application was originally conceptualised by a local oncologist involved in a collaborative study who needed the following:

Pedigrees and data to be intimately linked together and updated simultaneously; Pedigrees to be easy to construct and easily modified; A fully functional database allowing for the end-user to customise it for any hereditary study, without requiring database programming skills. Ability for multiple users to access pedigrees and data for collaboration.

These needs resulted in what is still today one of the most comprehensive pedigree and clinical data management softwares available today.

In addition to Progeny Clinical, which is the ideal clinical data management software to track family history data, Progeny Software provides Progeny Lab for full genotype management and has lately introduced LIMS software, providing the ability to manage sample inventory and customise workflows for any specific environment.

Also, Progeny provides old-fashioned, comprehensive, toll-free customer support.


About Company

Progeny Software, LLC was established in 1996 and presented the first version of the software at the ASHG (American Society for Human Genetics) Conference. Since its introduction in 1996, Progeny now counts customers in over 60 countries.
