Training is often considered a prerequisite and one of the essential components of clinical research. With proper training, researchers understand all the ethical implications of the study and stay compliant with all the regulations throughout the study. To that end, the training aims to teach the researchers about all the steps of the research, from…
As per a study, randomization and blinding in research, despite their numerous benefits, are underutilized tools in non-pharmaceutical trials. While clinical trial organizers and researchers acknowledge the benefits of randomization and blinding, not many have been keen to implement the protocol in research studies for a long time. However, after 2020, when decentralized clinical trials,…
Remote data collection in modern decentralized clinical trials has allowed research sponsors to eliminate various barriers and improve data quality. Gathering accurate and real-time data from a diverse pool of clinical research participants is now possible with remote data collection. But to fully leverage this tech-supported clinical trial model, researchers must know the different data…
As more advanced technology is used in clinical trials and studies, the chances of incidental findings have also increased manifold. Incidental findings can be potentially relevant during the course of the research, but they fall outside the primary scope of the study. These findings may be anticipated or unanticipated, and sometimes researchers even seek them…
In recent years of modernized clinical trials, patient centricity has become a top priority for a vast majority of clinical trial sponsors. Allowing clinical trial organizers to avail numerous benefits, the concept of patient centricity has also given a boost to the idea of decentralized clinical trials. But ensuring patient centricity in clinical trials is…
