Data and compliance challenges in clinical research
Clinical research monitors and measures the efficacy, safety and benefits of treatments and interventions offered to patients to prevent, diagnose, and manage diseases. The goal is to improve clinical outcomes for patients. Clinical researchers are generating and analysing increasing volumes of data to better understand and diagnose diseases. Your decision-making relies on the accuracy and traceability of that data and the consistency of your lab processes generating and using that data.
Clinical research labs deliver varied and complex services; from managing clinical trials through to sample analysis and biobanking. Keeping track of samples received, where they are, who can access them and for what purpose, can be challenging. Especially if you need to monitor samples as they move between labs or you’re processing them to create aliquots and derivatives.
Governance is an essential function in all clinical research labs. You need to know that everyone is adhering to your SOPs. This includes strictly controlling access to your data and full visibility and traceability of all actions.
