Site Cloud: End of Study

Closing out a study introduces risk when files are scattered, manually shared, or stored on physical media.

Medidata Site Cloud: End of Study (EOS) provides a secure, end-to-end way to generate, distribute, and oversee site study files at trial close. Study files are delivered through a single system that centralizes access, permissions, audit trails, and real-time visibility, bringing control and traceability to study closeout.

Video transcript: As a study concludes, sponsors and CROs can face overflowing paperwork and physical media with their site's end of study data process. Physical media like CDs can become damaged over time, flash drives misplaced, and older formats become unreadable on newer devices. These hurdles can lead to unreachable data, noncompliance, and extended study closeout timelines. Site Cloud End of Study is here to eliminate those physical media by seamlessly digitizing and managing end of study files from any EDC solution. When sponsors release the trial data back to the sites, the sites receive an immediate email notification within their metadata portal. With a single click, sites can access their data and are taken right into the download and acknowledgment workflow. From any EDC to immediate access to download and a one click acknowledgment, Site Cloud End of Study eliminates physical media and saves a remarkable amount of time. For sponsors and CROs, EOS is fully transparent, tracking site actions in real time while easily maintaining complete audit trails. Actionable dashboards provide a clear overview of each site's download and acknowledgment activities, ensuring confident oversight of the end of study process. Site Cloud End of Study is the clear path forward to simplifying end of study management by providing an effortless experience for sites and a fully compliant, time saving process for sponsors and CROs.
