Several RBM studies conducted by TransCelerate leadership have appeared in industry publications since the launch of the initiative. Those publications are detailed below.
Defining a Central Monitoring Capability: Sharing the Experience of TransCelerate BioPharma, Part 1
DIA’s Therapeutic Innovation & Regulatory Science (TIRS), September 2014, vol. 48 no. 5
This article describes the people, process, and technology important to enable effective Centralized monitoring. By using examples of various models TransCelerate Member Companies have piloted, the article provides workflows for different implementations of Centralized monitoring
Technology Considerations to Enable the Risk-Based Monitoring Methodology, Part 1
DIA’s Therapeutic Innovation & Regulatory Science (TIRS), September 2014, vol. 48 no. 5
This paper describes high-level considerations when designing and building an integrated technology solution that will aid in scaling the RBM methodology across an organization’s portfolio
Evaluating Source Data Verification as a Quality Control Measure in Clinical Trials
DIA’s Therapeutic Innovation & Regulatory Science (TIRS), September 2014, vol. 48 no. 6
TransCelerate expanded the initial retrospective analysis that was undertaken as a component of the RBM Position Paper to thoroughly and objectively analyze the value of Source Data Verification (SDV) as a quality control measure in clinical trial execution. The article questions the value of SDV in a trial, and the answer emerges through a comprehensive literature review, a retrospective analysis of data in clinical trials, and an assessment of major/critical findings from audits
TransCelerate Risk-Based Monitoring Technology Considerations Part 2
December 2015
This white paper presents functionality details for an integrated RBM technology solution and is an extension from the first Technology Considerations paper from September 2014. The paper is targeted towards sponsors and their representatives as they select and implement a system to perform RBM on, as well as technology vendors as they develop solutions that could support RBM approaches to monitoring
Defining a Central Monitoring Capability: Sharing the Experience of TransCelerate BioPharma’s Approach, Part 2
DIA’s Therapeutic Innovation & Regulatory Science (TIRS), 2015
This article is a follow up to Part 1, which was published in September 2014. This paper shares information on what has been learned by various companies’ applications of Centralized monitoring activities based on different RBM operating approaches. The paper specifically provides guidance on what has been learned from the application of the Risk Indicator Library
Detecting Data Quality Issues in Clinical Trials: Current Practices and Recommendations
DIA’s Therapeutic Innovation & Regulatory Science (TIRS), 2015
This paper reports on a survey that was distributed to TransCelerate Member Companies to assess current strategies for detecting and mitigating risks involving fraud and misconduct in clinical trials. Based on blinded survey responses, TransCelerate recommends that companies that elect to use RBM create an integrated, multifaceted approach to proactively detect data quality issues, with detection methods tailored to the characteristics of the study
Statistical Monitoring in Clinical Trials: Best Practices for Detecting Data Anomalies Suggestive of Fabrication of Misconduct
DIA’s Therapeutic Innovation & Regulatory Science (TIRS), February 2016
This paper reports on a TransCelerate-lead study that tested statistical monitoring on a data set from a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) clinical study with 178 sites and 1554 subjects. The paper reports on the steps of the trial and recommends a cross-functional, collaborative approach to statistical monitoring that can adapt to study design
