"TECHNICAL CHALLENGES IN ONCOLOGY TRIALS"
Particularities and Future Developments
September 17th, Sheraton Airport Hotel,
Duesseldorf Airport, Germany

In recent years, using EDC systems rather than paper-based data collection systems has become more and more common. “The life cycle of data management hasn’t changed, yet the ways of collecting data have.” Explained Dr. Claus Lindenau, Head of Business Development at XClinical. “Data standards have gained importance, as have the software solutions to permit an End-To-End process within the eClinical workflow.” To take up those developments, the “End-To-End” workshop will contain a theoretical introduction to the EDC process and the related data standards (CDISC). This will be followed by live demonstrations which illustrate the End-To-End process from eCRF set-up to Data Collection and Data Cleaning and finally to Data Submission and Archiving.

The workshop “Technical Challenges in Oncology Trials” will give an introduction to the topic of Oncology Trials and will deal with the technical challenges associated with them. Future prospects and a discussion session will also be provided.
This topic is a reaction to current developments. According to the WHO, cancer of various types will be the most common cause of death worldwide by 2010. As a result, Oncology Trials are gaining more and more importance. “Oncology Trials face many challenges.” Said Dr. Lindenau. “Not only in terms of Study design but also regarding technical aspects by means of capturing an combining data from interdisciplinary parties and different data sources.”
