Hybrid clinical trials have become a cornerstone of modern research, blending the benefits of traditional on-site visits with the flexibility of remote data collection. This approach not only enhances patient convenience but also expands access to a broader and more diverse participant pool. However, managing these hybrid studies efficiently requires robust remote monitoring capabilities, and this is where Xolomon’s platform excels.
What are hybrid clinical trials?
Hybrid clinical trials combine both on-site and remote elements, allowing participants to complete certain study activities from their homes while attending in-person visits only when necessary. This model offers numerous advantages, including improved patient retention, reduced site burden, and greater data accuracy.
Yet, hybrid trials also present unique challenges, particularly in terms of data management and monitoring. Without effective remote monitoring, researchers may struggle to ensure data integrity, patient safety, and protocol compliance.
The importance of remote monitoring in hybrid trials
Remote monitoring is the process of overseeing study activities without the need for on-site visits. In hybrid trials, this means that research teams can review patient data, track compliance, and identify potential issues in real time, all without physically visiting the study site.
Key benefits of remote monitoring include:
- Enhanced data integrity: Real-time data capture reduces the risk of errors.
- Improved patient safety: Researchers can quickly identify adverse events or deviations.
- Cost efficiency: Less travel for monitors means lower study costs.
- Scalability: Easily manage multi-centre or global studies from a central location.
How Xolomon optimises remote monitoring
Xolomon’s platform is designed to support remote monitoring in hybrid clinical trials, providing researchers with the tools they need to ensure study quality and compliance. Our solution offers a range of features that make remote monitoring both effective and user-friendly.
Real-time data access:
Researchers can view participant data as it is collected, allowing for immediate review and analysis. This ensures that any anomalies are detected and addressed without delay.
Customisable monitoring plans:
Xolomon enables research teams to design custom monitoring plans based on study protocols. Set automatic triggers for data review, define risk-based monitoring strategies, and tailor monitoring frequency to suit each study’s needs.
Automated alerts and notifications:
The platform automatically generates alerts for predefined events, such as missing data, adverse events, or protocol deviations. Researchers receive instant notifications, allowing them to take corrective action.
Comprehensive Audit Trails:
Xolomon maintains a detailed record of all data interactions, providing full transparency for monitoring activities. This is essential for regulatory compliance and ensures that all data changes are traceable.
Secure data management:
Our platform is fully compliant with international data protection standards, including GDPR. All patient data is encrypted, ensuring that it remains secure during remote monitoring.
