Leading electronic data capture (EDC) software has evolved to

Beyond this platform lies the objective of providing an integrated
eClinical backbone that can serve as the sole repository of all
transactional data generated in the conduct of clinical
trials--clinical, metadata, and operational data. To meet this
objective, leading EDC software offers an end-to-end platform, which,
when paired with the proper ancillary software, can address the common
problems encountered in clinical trial design, operations and
analysis.

This session will provide an overview of the ideal architecture
for such eClinical platform, as well as provide an overview of the
ecosystem of software solutions that help accelerate clinical
operations, as well as the flow of data from collection to analysis.
Additionally, de Vries will discuss some of the specific tools
required to integrate these various technologies and describe and how
they can contribute to increasing productivity and time-to-value.
