ings if they are used properly. According toElizabeth Estes, executive VP and chief strat-egy officer at GA Communication, the type ofplatform isn’t as important as long as the con-tent is meaningful and engaging. “I’ve seen tablets used well and tablets usednot so well,” she says. “One way to improvesales call interactions through mobile is to stopbelieving that putting a PDF of the latest de-tail aid on a tablet is a good use of that tool.” Interactive case studies or gamification op-
portunities are examples of platform use thatcan be more effective during a call, she adds.The end goal should be to create such greatcontent paths that the physicians can’t helpbut take the tablet out of the hands of the repto engage on their own. “It’s an amazing thing to see when it hap-pens,” Ms. Estes says. “Docs are more likely toask questions and more likely to engage withthe rep.” These tools aren’t about replacing the
human connection, but about enhancing thememorability of the rep and the call itself. All too often the tendency is to design con-
tent experiences that require the rep to be asilent participant in the all-too brief exchangewith the doctor, when it is mobile platformsthat reduce the amount of technology interfacebetween the rep and the physician that offerthe most value, says Geoff McCleary, VP,group director, mobile innovation, Digitas
Robin Robinson
By using meaningful content and technology, pharmaceutical companies have the ability to reach physicians on three screens.
Health. During their brief visits, reps shouldbe building a relationship with the doctor in-stead of spending most of their 30- to 90-sec-ond encounter playing a video or animation. “We need to enable content experiences
that make the technology invisible,” Mr. Mc-Cleary says. “Technology should bolster therep and make them the smartest person in theroom — not the iPad or tablet.”Tablet details with 60 to 80 pages are al-most impossible for reps to manage, and theiruse in the field offers no clear insights into theconversation with the physician. However,platforms that can simplify this experience andstreamline it also serve the brand in anotherkey way. They serve to help create, and in turncollect, more consistent data across the entiresalesforce. The insights gained from an elec-tronic interaction on a mobile device allow in-
f pharmaceutical brands are to re-main relevant, establishing a pres-ence on mobile devices is crucial.Both physicians and patients areprolific mobile adopters. In 2012,
50% of the United States population owned asmartphone, 81% of physicians did. Mobilescreens are transforming the way consumers,including physicians, get information. According to Digitas Health, physician
smartphone adoption is double that of Ameri-can consumers. They are prolific mobileadopters, integrating both smartphones andtablets into their practices, from EHR andbilling management to the exam room itself.Physicians are even recommending health-re-lated apps to patients for certain disease states. Epocrates calls today’s physicians who use
mobile, tablet, and laptop screens across theirwork functions “digital omnivores.” By 2014,a recent Epocrates report predicts that nine in10 healthcare providers will use smartphones,and almost as many will have adopted tablets.So how can the industry get on the mobiletrain? Our experts say by focusing on content,keeping it simple, beefing up interactivity,and being entertaining.As physician offices are increasingly limit-ing sales rep office visits, sales reps are undergreater pressure than ever to make the most ofeach office visit and interaction. Mobile plat-forms can bring more value to physician meet-

38 September 2013 � PharmaVOICE
espite the time, effort, and
money spent on improving
patient recruitment and reten-
tion, these two areas of clinical
development remain among
the biggest challenges facing the industry.
The impact of recruitment challenges is sig-
nificant. The delays in patient recruitment for
clinical trials account for an average of 4.6
months lost per trial, according to one source.
When calculated, this is an annual cumulative
loss of 26 years, on average, for each company.
According to a recent report from Cutting
Edge Information, clinical trials last 42%
longer than expected in Phase I, 31% longer in
Phase II, and 30% beyond planned deadlines in
Phase III — all because of recruitment delays.
Now Web-based communications — and
specifically social media — are significant
tools for patient enrollment. Industry experts
say patients can be enrolled faster and less ex-
pensively than other methods. Patients are
more actively seeking health information on-
line, and they are more engaged. In fact, 73%
of online U.S. adults have looked for health in-
formation online, according to Pew Research
Center’s Internet & American Life Project.
Social media represents a potential oppor-
tunity, but there are a lot of things that need to
be in place in an organization for this to hap-
pen, says Pat Connelly, head of digital strategy
and communications, at Millennium: The
Takeda Oncology Company.
“Finding ways to use the strong presence of
patient advocacy groups on a platform such as
Facebook is a great place to start with patient
recruitment efforts,” he says. “We should be
partnering with academic centers to create ed-
Ducational materials we can distribute via social
channels to encourage participation in clinical
trials. Posting videos on YouTube and tweet-
ing the praise of clinical research are great ways
to begin to demystify the process.”
In fact, social media efforts can be very ef-
fective for recruiting specific patient popula-
tion. Quintiles recently issued a report that
highlighted some of the company’s efforts, in-
cluding an observational research study with
425 patients with chronic obstructive pul-
monary disease (COPD) from its online patient
community. The first digital patient was en-
rolled in the study in six minutes with the last
patient confirmed in only nine calendar days.
In another example, a 1,255-patient
women’s health study in which Quintiles de-
veloped a custom communication plan to re-
duce the number of patients who become lost
to follow up or drop out of the study entirely.
The customized communication program kept
patient engagement high and resulted in a
59% increase in the retention rate for the du-
ration of the study.
Matt Stumm, principal, creative and media
strategy at BBK Worldwide, says social media
is a great way to reach specific patients.
“We’ve seen a lot focus on specific disease
categories,” he says. “This is the beauty of
using online mediums and specifically social
media. Patients aren’t looking for general in-
formation. Patients are looking for something
very specific and tailored for them. We’ve been
having a lot of success in having messages that
are tailored to a specific audience.”
Mr. Stumm adds that driving people to
these messages isn’t difficult.
“People are using social media; it is part of

their daily lives,” he says. “We can get the
message into the stream of information in the
form patients are comfortable with.”
Because there is more competition for pa-
tients, trials with smaller patient populations
often struggle to enroll completely.
Neil Weisman, executive VP and general
manager at Blue Chip Patient Recruitment,
says social media is an ideal place to reach
smaller patient populations.

Clinical Trial Solutions
prospective data completion where patients re-spond before they are supposed to, and retro-spective data completion (aka the “parking lotsyndrome”), where patients rush to completetheir weekly diary entry just before their visitto the clinic.
��%���%� ������#$
In addition to the aforementioned ePROdata collection tools, clinical trial staff may usereminders that are sent directly to the patientthrough text and/or phone to remind them oftheir completion deadline and alert them ifthey miss it. This is appealing to many becauseit enables real-time communication directly tothe patient that supports compliance prior tothe patient missing the pre-defined timeframefor completion of their diary. It is a proactivecompliance management tool rather than a re-active solution. There are a few things to con-sider when using this technology to get the re-minder strategy correct:» Reminders are most powerful duringthe initial weeks of the patient’s participation in the trial. An Almac study indicates that patients begin to rely less on
the reminders as their time in the trial increases. The percentage of patients whocomplete their diaries after receiving a reminder is significantly higher at the startof their participation than it is two or moreweeks later. Consider allowing patients tocancel reminders after a certain period oftime.
» Reminders are most instrumentalwhen patients are not required to register diary information on a dailybasis. It is much easier for the diary registry to become part of the patient’s routine when daily diary entries are made,but very difficult when they are made lessfrequently.
» Give the patient a chance to registerdiary information prior to receiving a reminder. For example, set up the reminder system so that a reminder is onlysent if the patient has not registered theirdiary 60 minutes prior to the close of thewindow. This will reduce the number of reminders that are sent, saving money andpreventing reminders from becoming a nuisance for the patients. In a 2013 patient survey conducted by Almac, it was indicated that if patients perceive reminders as annoying, they are less likelyto be compliant.
» Consider using a technology that
enables the patient to easily link or access the electronic diary system directly from the reminder vehicle forreal-time response.

Data quality can also be compromised withthe possibility for human error with data cap-ture beyond PRO. This is combatted in anumber of ways. In an attempt to make trialsmore efficient, many firms are choosing toadopt integrated data systems, combiningelectronic data capture (EDC) and interactiveresponse technology (IRT) data (includingePRO). This provides immediate access todata, reducing error while constantly reconcil-ing data and minimizing data redundancy. Asintegration solutions have evolved, the contin-uous challenge is to be able to allow the spon-sor to choose best incase solutions from differ-ent providers while improving the level of dataintegration beyond a transfer or sharing of flatfiles. The good news is that integration bestpractices and experience have significantlyevolved in the market enabling much moreseamless integration between these providers.
There is continued growth in the adoptionof IRT and EDC integration practices as morefirms continue to implement integrated solu-tions. Not only have more firms adopted thesesolutions, they have sought solutions withwide scopes — solutions that encompass abroad range of systems. As scopes increase, sodo opportunities for cross-functional benefitsas systems and workflows are integrated.When systems and workflows are integrated,processes can be standardized, resulting in bet-ter solutions.
The complexity of clinical trials oftenmeans that information is shared across multi-ple systems: systems for screening and ran-domization, drug supply management, clini-cal supply management, and patient-reportedoutcomes. Historically, sites transcribed infor-mation manually among systems. Manualtranscription is inefficient, time-consuming,and has a high probability for human error,leading to data discrepancies for sponsors. Anintegrated IRT/EDC system eliminates theneed to log into more than one system, withdata shared reliably between the two systems.With a successful integrated system, the siteuser should feel confident that the data sharedbetween applications is not only reliable buthigh-quality and lacking in redundancy.
As integrated system use increases, so toomust the scope of what an integrated system
must accomplish. Systems share informationand drive functionality in other systems. Forexample, drug supply management systemsmay need to reconcile damaged drug or incor-rect dosage. Integrated systems can mitigatediscrepancies in data by syncing all informationcoming from sites, data points, and systems —with large-scale global studies with many sitesand data points, the possibility for discrepancyis enormous. Investing in an integrated systemis more cost-effective than attempting to con-trol for, detect, and remove discrepancies.
As the scope of integrated IRT/EDC sys-tems broadens, it becomes increasingly impor-tant to standardize the system’s requirements.Doing so reduces the need for change at thesystem level, encourages the use of standarddata and message formats, and simplifies im-pact analysis during system amendments. Itfurther creates a system of checks and balances.Ideally it should clearly delineate who to con-tact in the event of an error; who handles fail-ures in business or technical validation; inwhich systems the data should be corrected;and how to ensure that any corrected data isn’toverwritten by incorrect data in an adjoiningsystem.
While integrated systems can streamlineprocesses, it is not feasible to develop an inte-gration that can handle every scenario, particu-larly for large-scale global trials. Vendors shoulddevelop for the highest-value scenarios and en-sure that systems communicate to users if man-ual intervention is needed. Integration shouldnot be used to cover up gaps in data validationshould they occur; it should validate the mes-sage and data formats and required data points.

Clinical Trial Solutions
Electronic Patient Reported Outcomes and Integrated Systems:
ith all the elements that com-prise a clinical trial — fromdesign to enrollment to analy-sis — it is little wonder thatsuccess can be impeded by
challenges along the way.
�$�� ������%# ������%���%� �! #%���&%� �������� � ���$
Low patient compliance and low data qual-ity of Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs),such as patient diaries, can be critical chal-lenges in clinical trials. Lack of patient com-pliance is a leading cause of missing data inPROs, and low data quality can also result inmissing data when data are deemed inaccurateand unreliable. High amounts of missing datacan lead to inconclusive trial results and intro-duce bias in the study. The FDA has encour-aged the industry to identify ways to improvethis issue in order to avoid inconclusive trialresults.
Electronic Patient Reported Outcome(ePRO) tools have grown in popularity overthe years and have expanded beyond the use of
hand-held devices to Web, mobile Web, andphone. These tools enable study implementersto employ a number of techniques to minimizemissing patient data and keep data qualityhigh; such techniques are not possible withtraditional methods of collecting patient re-ported data.
����%# ������%���%� �! #%����&%� ��$
With ePRO, clinical trial staff can enablehard edits that prevent patients from skippingitems or pages. When patients fill out paperdiaries, they can easily omit sections or ques-tions (intentionally or unintentionally); withePRO solutions, patients can be required to fillout all sections by prohibiting them to moveforward until necessary entries are complete.The capture of extraneous data, such as whenpatients include additional information in themargins (which cannot be used in study re-sults), can also be prevented with ePRO. Paperdata collection methods also allow patients toprovide both ambiguous data and contradic-tory data that would likely have to be countedas missing. To avoid ambiguous data (e.g.,multiple responses for a question that requiresa single response), a functionality in ePROmodality can be programmed to allow patientsto provide only one response option where re-quired. Contradictory data (e.g., patients re-sponding that they did not take their medica-tion in one question and later responding thatthey took their medication four times), can beaddressed in ePRO with features such asbranching and prompts.
The time accuracy of the data collected isalso critical to the quality of the data, ensuringconfidence in your trial results. This accuracyis affected negatively when patients do notcomplete their diary on the day or at the timeof day that it is intended to be completed. En-suring date/time accurate data when using tra-ditional paper-based data collection methods is

Regulatory View on Missing Data
Missing data are: “data not completed,” “corrupted
in reports & case report forms,” “data not captured
when subject withdraws” (CDISC, 2007)
Th FDA Guidance on PROs states:
» “Missing data can introduce bias and interfere
with the ability to compare effects.”
» “Missing data is a major challenge to the success
and interpretation of any clinical trial.”
» “When the amount of missing data becomes
large, clinical trial results can be inconclusive. We
encourage pre-specified procedures in the
clinical trial protocol to avoid missing data.”

impossible, whereas date/time accuracy is oneof the most significant benefits of ePRO solu-tions. ePRO solutions are able to stamp datawith the date and time of completion to ensurethat the responses are logged within the re-quired time frame. ePRO solutions can also beprogrammed to only allow patients to recordtheir information during pre-defined timeframes to ensure that the information recordedis for the intended date and time. This solutionessentially eliminates the challenges that existwith traditional paper-based methods:

ongoing, in-the-moment training, served up in small
bite-sized snippets. These are then put into practice
immediately, shortening the time gap between
learning and execution and reinforcing lessons and
resulting retention.

Message Delivered: Improved OutcomesImproved patient outcomes are the ultimate
business value driver. Proper training allows the
rep to effectively deliver the message to the
physician, resulting in better — or more
informed — use of the product. Furthermore,
the more effectively the rep delivers the
message to the physician, the better prepared
the doctor is to communicate product value to
the patient. In doing so, patient compliance in-
creases, improving outcomes and resulting in
stronger adherence — more prescriptions —
for the brand.

A Culture for ExcellencePerformance excellence,
leadership, innovation, and career development
cannot be reached without the presence of an
aligned workplace culture. Many companies aspire
to a culture of excellence, leadership, and
innovation, but few are willing to make the lasting
investments and undergo the changes necessary
to achieve cultural alignment. Senior leadership
must commit to championing these goals openly,
investing training resources toward their
achievement, and aligning the organizational
reward system to reinforce them.
Preparing for the Best OutcomesTo engage providers in the increasingly cost-
conscious, outcomes-driven environment ushered
in by the ACA, customer-facing teams must be
able to discuss appropriate product use in the
context of both the patient’s care continuum and
the provider’s evidence-based treatment protocol.
Effective training will prepare customer-facing
roles for the changing nature of the rep-provider
dialogue and equip them with knowledge of the
factors that drive providers’ decisions, such as
appropriate use, protocols, and provider
economics.

Mapping Key to SuccessThe key to performance
excellence is to ensure a well-defined training
continuum that maps out employees’ training and
performance expectations throughout the
different phases of their tenure. The plan needs to
have a strong focus on both formal and informal
learning events, including on-the-job and
application-based training activities support by
on-going coaching and mentoring.
Living in the Real-WorldWe’ve found that the greatest impact on
performance and behavior change occurs during
informal training activities that allow learners to
practice, apply, and evaluate their ability to apply
knowledge in real-world situations. As a result,
many traditional learning structures are being
reanalyzed and redesigned to accommodate a
much broader array of application-based learning,
including real-life simulation, verbalization,
and on-the-job pull-through activities.
These activities are likely to have the
greatest impact on performance, which
ultimately has a positive impact on patient
outcomes.

Moving beyond the currentglamour leaders, apps and anima-tion, digital seems to be everywhere. Disease-state and product websites continue to growmore sophisticated. Clinical trials are increas-ingly using digital media to recruit and retainpatients, while creating stakeholder communi-ties. Interactive PDFs containing embeddedmultimedia can lessen the drudgery of filling outforms. There are even digital refrigerator mag-nets that change color to indicate when it’s timeto take the next dose.

So, with the headlong rush to digital, is itnow the media of choice for patient education?
It depends. The choice of media is often dictated by the
disease state. For education aimed at peripheralneuropathy patients, a plastic, tactile touchpadcan enable users to judge the severity of their dis-ease by how well they detect differences in sur-face textures. But, education aimed at maculardegeneration patients is better suited to digital,where users at a desktop or laptop computer canalter the size of type or zoom in on an image tosuit their vision requirements.
Sometimes the choice of media is dictated bymore practical concerns. Many clients prefer tra-ditional digital. With paper they don’t have toworry about users randomly clicking throughthe message. They don’t have to worry about thebattery running out or finding a WiFi hot spot.There’s no learning curve to using a piece ofpaper.

n patient education, digital is hot rightnow. Red hot. Pharmaceutical mar-keters want a sexy digital applicationthat educates patients about a newtherapy, reminds them to adhere to
their dosing schedules, and looks good doing it.The reasons behind their “everything digital”approach are clear:» Portability, making it easier to move content
onto multiple platforms» Scalability, with the promise of one message
being repurposed to multiple devices: laptop,desktop, tablet, and smartphone
» Interactivity, such as self-paced education,games, and response-based content, each ofwhich customizes a patient’s educational ex-perience
» Multimedia, integrating multiple visual andaudio elements to enhance the user experi-ence
» Sizzle, with digital perceived as cutting-edgecompared with traditional mediaLeading the way in digital is an insatiable de-
mand for portable device apps. Apps are an idealmedium for symptom trackers, adherence re-minders, appointment reminders, calorie coun-ters, and just about anything else that helps busypeople maintain their mobility.
Apps are great, if they’re the right tool for thejob. A well-designed app that enables angina pa-tients to record the time and duration of everyattack is going to be a huge hit. Patients willlove the convenience; healthcare professionals(HCPs) and pharmaceutical product managerswill appreciate the reliable data.
On the other hand, a poorly designed app fortracking multiple sclerosis relapses could easilyrequire more dexterity than its users can muster.A negative user experience can quickly damagereputations.
An impressive mechanism of action (MOA)animation is high on every product manager’swish list because it can open doors for pharmareps and encourage patients to ask for a productby name. But one MOA animation is unlikely todo both jobs well. A high-science MOA anima-tion that resonates with clinical trial researchers

within their CDMS to ensure the complete-ness and accuracy of trial data through auto-mated edit checks, manual reviews, andutilities to load and reconcile any trial dataprovided by labs, devices, or other sources.According to Glen de Vries, cofounder andchief technology officer at Medidata Solu-tions Worldwide, the reason CDMS wastheir primary system was because transcrip-

tion of paper CRFs into CDMS marked thebeginning of the period when a data man-ager could interact with clinical informa-tion.
“Logging into the CDMS in the morningwould be as automatic and natural to the datamanager as opening a word processor wouldbe to a novelist,” he says. “And it still is.”
But Mr. de Vries says because fundamentalshifts are occurring in clinical trials, the firstsystem a data manager logs into in the morn-ing may not be a CDMS for much longer.
“The increasing adoption of EDC parallels,and is a reflection of, the increasing desire toreview clean data earlier in the trial process,”he says. “And the expanding adoption of EDCmeans that more data managers mark the firsttime data are available to them by when infor-mation is entered into EDC by the site —long before it reaches a CDMS database.”
The compelling reasons why a data manag-er would even need a separate CDMS are sim-ilarly diminishing. EDC tools have typicallyincluded edit checks, query management, andmanual data review tools, but in many casesMr. de Vries says they had limitations thatrequired aspects of those activities to be exe-cuted in another downstream system.
“Today’s more sophisticated EDC plat-forms in many cases include industrial-strength data management tools, meaningthat data managers can perform all of theirwork in a single system,” he says. “In somecases, today’s EDC platforms also include fac-ulties to batch load lab and other data anddouble-data entry capabilities so that hybridstudies with paper CRFs and online eCRFscan be handled without the separate overhead
of deploying and managing a CDMSdatabase.”
MAKING A CASE FOR LEGACY SYSTEMS
A case can sometimes still be made formaintaining legacy CDMS systems becausethey are deeply integrated with other hubswithin a pharma, biotech, or device company.
“Even if a company’s EDC system is provid-ing the trial manager with a complete studydatabase, there may still be needs around safety,documentation, site reimbursement, signaldetection, data warehousing, or resource alloca-tion and management that stem from an exist-ing CDMS installation,” Mr. de Vries says.“However, even in those cases, integrationtoolkits and off-the-shelf components to con-nect to those systems directly is slowly becom-ing the rule, rather than the exception, withinthe EDC industry.”
SEPARATING EDC FROM CDMS
Mr. de Vries says, in the end, the semanticdistinction between EDC and CDMS willbecome difficult to discern.
“CDMS has always contained a componentof capture, albeit one based on transcriptionrather than direct entry,” he says. “And sincecapturing data is one of the first things donewithin an EDC system, not the last, the wordcapture at the end of EDC’s acronym obscuresthe true potential and utility of many systems.”
In the case of both CDMS and EDC, Mr. deVries concludes, data are gathered, managed,and — increasingly with EDC — passed on fordownstream analysis. Perhaps EDC is thereforenot a replacement for CDMS, but can be con-sidered as its next logical evolution.�
