FAQs

What is an eCOA Clinical Trial?

An eCOA clinical trial uses technology to accelerate clinical outcome assessment (COA) data collection, and ensure data of high quality and integrity for reliable inference making. More sponsors are choosing eCOA for their clinical trials to gain a better understanding of how patients feel and function in near real-time.

What is the difference between eCOA and ePRO?

An Electronic Clinical Outcome Assessment (eCOA) is a measure of how a patient feels, functions or survives, collected through an electronic solution. There are four types of eCOA: Electronic Patient-Reported Outcome (ePRO), Electronic Clinician-Reported Outcome (eClinRO), Electronic Performance Outcome (ePerfO), and Electronic Observer-Reported Outcome (eObsRO). Patients participating in a clinical trial use an ePRO solution to complete patient-reported outcome measures and diaries to report their symptoms and experiences. These data are used in the ongoing oversight of patients throughout the clinical trial by the investigators and staff at a clinical site, and often comprises important study endpoints to inform regulatory decision making and medication labelling.
