LET'S TALK
Implementing ePRO and eCOA in Clinical Trials
The implementation of ePRO and eCOA in clinical trials begins with thoughtful trial design. Here’s how it works:
- Define Data Points and Feedback: The clinical research team identifies the specific data points and feedback required from patients.
- Choose the Best Format: The team decides on the best format for data collection, which may include an app, e-patient diary, wearable device, or other digital forms.
- Device Provision: Patients can either use devices provided by the trial or install an app like Clinical Study Pal on their own devices.
- Remote Monitoring: Once the ePRO/eCOA forms are completed, the research site can remotely monitor patient responses, enhancing patient compliance and overall trial experience.

Benefits of Using ePRO and eCOA in Clinical Trials
Patient Preference
Patients generally prefer using ePRO apps over traditional paper diaries. A study by Almac in 2013 found that over 75% of patients favored answering questions electronically, underscoring the importance of adopting patient-friendly technology in clinical trials.
Enhanced Compliance and Engagement
A user-friendly digital platform enhances patient compliance and engagement. Patients can complete assessments conveniently on their own devices, ensuring they stay involved and committed to the trial.
The advantages of incorporating ePRO and eCOA into clinical trials are manifold. These include:
Real-Time Data Capture
Certain measures, such as pain symptoms or daily activity levels, are better tracked in real-time rather than at scheduled site visits. Patient-reported outcomes provide the perfect solution for capturing this data accurately and promptly.
Higher Quality Data
Research indicates that electronic collection of PROs and COAs leads to higher quality data. For example, a study on a new treatment for overactive bladder demonstrated that using e-diaries for patients to track their urges to urinate resulted in a 33% reduction in data variability compared to paper diaries, significantly enhancing the study’s statistical significance.
Frequently Asked Questions
ePRO stands for electronic Patient-Reported Outcomes, where patients use digital tools to report their health status, symptoms, and treatment experiences. This method provides real-time, accurate data directly from the patient, essential for evaluating the efficacy and safety of treatments.
Delve Health’s platform allows patients to report their outcomes using a digital device, either provided by the trial or their own. The data is captured in real-time and can be monitored remotely by clinical trial sites, ensuring accurate and timely data collection.
Yes, patients can use their own devices to report outcomes via the ePRO/eCOA platform. This BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) approach ensures flexibility and convenience for patients, making it easier for them to participate in the trial.
eCOA, or electronic Clinical Outcome Assessment, is a digital method for collecting outcome data directly from patients, clinicians, or caregivers in a clinical trial setting. eCOA encompasses various types of outcomes, including ePRO, ePerfO, eClinRO, and eObsRO.
By providing a user-friendly interface and real-time data collection, ePRO/eCOA makes it easier for patients to complete their assessments accurately and on time. This leads to higher compliance rates and better overall data quality.
It can capture a wide range of outcomes, including –
- Electronic Patient reported outcomes (ePRO)
- Electronic Performance outcomes (ePerfO)
- Electronic Clinician-reported outcomes (eClinRO)
- Electronic Observer-reported outcomes (eObsRO).
This comprehensive data collection ensures that all relevant clinical information is gathered.
Delve Health’s platform employs advanced security measures to protect patient data, including encryption and secure data storage. This ensures that all sensitive information is kept confidential and compliant with regulatory standards.
Integrating ePRO/eCOA into a clinical trial involves designing the trial to include –
- electronic data capture
- selecting the appropriate devices or apps
- training patients and clinicians on how to use the platform.
Delve Health provides comprehensive support throughout this process to ensure smooth implementation.
By replacing paper forms with electronic data capture, ePRO/eCOA significantly reduces the amount of paper used in clinical trials. This contributes to more sustainable research practices and minimizes the environmental footprint of the trial.
