In addition to the objectives and challenges that apply to study Sponsors (see Sponsors), CROs have specific hurdles that PI-Enroll helps to clear.
For example, CROs/CRAs often struggle to determine where a study stands with respect to approvals from a site’s various approval committees (IRB, Impact, legal, etc.)
To meet that need, PI-Enroll provides a dashboard that not only displays which site committees have approved the study but also predictions as to when the next committee will provide its approval. PI-Enroll also issues reminders to Study Coordinators that annual IRB approvals are due.
Here are some of the many features PI-Enroll can offer your CRO:
- Help meet patient enrolment targets
- Limit screening failures
- Improve patient retention
- Generate more robust data
- Support decentralized and hybrid studies
- Provide seamless integration with existing CTMS
Another challenge CROs face is the need to anticipate and/or identify problems that interfere with patient enrollment. To meet that need, PI-Enroll analytics can document certain relevant information such as how many patients have been referred to the SC for consenting versus how many have been consented. Such feedback enables CROs to identify which sites/SCs are encountering difficulties in the consenting process that need to be addressed.
