caBIG® has been partnering with regulatory bodies, pharmaceutical companies, the patient advocacy community, and organizations that design and run clinical trials to address the challenges of conducting clinical research.
In the aggregate, caBIG® tools—such as the ones mentioned below—comprise the building blocks of a system for end-to-end collection, management, and exchange of information from trial design and management through regulatory submission.
These caBIG® tools can help to mitigate unnecessary work delays, duplication of effort, human errors in data entry, and missed opportunities for data mining and secondary use of clinical trial data, as well as improve regulatory compliance.
Cancer Adverse Event Reporting System (caAERS)
The Cancer Adverse Event Reporting System (caAERS) captures and manages reports that describe adverse events that occur during clinical trials. Specifically, this tool:
- Allows local collection, management, and querying of adverse event data (both routine and serious)
- Supports regulatory compliances
The Patient Study Calendar developed by caBIG® enables clinical trial managers to schedule and manage treatment and care events for each participant in a clinical trial. Specifically, this tool:
- Represents already-existing workflows, processes, phases, and behaviors
- Allows easy management of the screening process, registration, monitoring, and follow-up with participants
- Accommodates multiple study design formats (population, observational, interventional, etc)
