Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a system and method of compartmentalizing some or all aspects of clinical trial data acquisition and management. Moreover, embodiments include aggregation of the compartmentalized trial data to perform business metrics, trial interaction studies, and the like.

Claims (45)

1. A system for a plurality of clinical trials, the system comprising:

at least one computer readable medium encoded with:

a plurality of clinical trial data stores, each of the plurality of clinical trial data stores associated with a clinical trial of the plurality of clinical trials;

a first code base configured to, when executed on a server, capture first clinical trial data for a first clinical trial of the plurality of clinical trials;

a second code base configured to, when executed on a server, capture second clinical trial data for a second clinical trial of the plurality of clinical trials, wherein the first and second code bases are executed without affecting each other; and

an aggregation module configured to, when executed by a processor:

read data from two or more clinical trial data stores of the plurality of clinical trial data stores;

derive from the data information relating to at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores; and

output a report relating to improving clinical trial performance based on the derived information, wherein

the processor constrains the execution of the aggregation module to components of the aggregation module such that the execution of the aggregation module does not affect data of the plurality of clinical trial data stores and the execution of the aggregation module does not affect either the execution of the first code base or the execution of the second code base.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving information indicative of efficiencies in running trials.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving business metrics indicative of efficiencies in running trials.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving information related to trial interaction studies.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving information related to monitoring clinical trials.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving assessment of treatment interactions across clinical trials.

7. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of discrete physical databases storing the plurality of clinical trial data stores.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the aggregation module configured to, when executed by a processor, copy data from the discrete physical databases to a centralized location.

9. A system for a plurality of clinical trials at a plurality of disparate clinical trial locations, the system comprising:

at least one non-transitory computer readable medium encoded with:

a plurality of clinical trial data stores, each of the plurality of clinical trial data stores associated with a clinical trial location of the plurality of clinical trial locations;

a plurality of code bases configured to, when executed on at least one processor, receive input comprising clinical trial data from a clinical trial location of the plurality of clinical trial locations and store it in a respective clinical trial data store of the plurality of clinical trial data stores, wherein the plurality of code bases are executed without affecting each other; and

an aggregation module configured to, when executed by a processor:

read data from two or more clinical trial data stores of the plurality of clinical trial data stores;

derive from the data information relating to at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores; and

output a report relating to improving clinical trial performance based on the derived information, wherein

the processor constrains the execution of the aggregation module to components of the aggregation module such that the execution of the aggregation module does not affect data of the plurality of clinical trial data stores.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving information indicative of efficiencies in running trials.

11. The system of claim 9 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving business metrics.

12. The system of claim 9 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving business metrics indicative of efficiencies in running trials.

13. The system of claim 9 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises assessing clinical trial interactions.

14. The system of claim 9 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving information related to trial interaction studies.

15. The system of claim 9 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving information related to improving efficiencies of clinical trials.

16. The system of claim 9 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving information related to monitoring clinical trials.

17. The system of claim 9 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving assessment of treatment interactions across clinical trials.

18. The system of claim 9 , further comprising a plurality of discrete physical databases storing the plurality of clinical trial data stores.

19. A method of operating a computer system for a plurality of clinical trials at a plurality of disparate clinical trial locations, the method comprising:

at each of the plurality of clinical trial locations, receiving input and storing, based on the input, clinical trial data in a respective clinical trial data store of a plurality of clinical trial data stores by executing a plurality of code bases, wherein the plurality of code bases are executed without

affecting each other; and

aggregating data from the plurality of clinical trial data stores, by:

reading data from two or more clinical trial data stores of the plurality of clinical trial data stores;

deriving from the data information relating to at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores; and

outputting a report relating to improving clinical trial performance based on the derived information, wherein

the aggregating is constrained such that the aggregating does not affect clinical trial data of the plurality of clinical trial data stores, and

the aggregating is executed by a module configured for reading the data from the two or more clinical trial data stores via read only access.

20. The system of claim 19 , wherein deriving from the data information relating to the at least one clinical trial associated with the plurality of clinical trial data stores comprises deriving information related to monitoring a clinical trial.
