TIP OF THE MONTH

Q: In Rave EDC, how do I remove a Principal Investigator (PI) signature from a form / forms without needing a script or having to make the PI change data?

A: If the volume of forms requiring re-sign is relatively low, you may opt to inactivate; then reactivate the eCRF(s) through subject administration in EDC. This will break the signature, meaning that sites are required to sign the whole form(s) again.

PRODUCT UPDATES

FTP Access to Medidata Production Servers

Data Reviewer

Build Complex, Multi-Dataset Listings without Programming

In H2 2022, Medidata Detect’s Patient Data Surveillance (PDS) module was enhanced with a new Data Reviewer capability. Data Reviewer presents datasets aggregated from Rave EDC and other sources and enables data managers to build complex listings, joining data from multiple domains, using a drag-and-drop expression builder. Listings can be used to find exceptions and, for data originating from Rave EDC, automatically post queries in bulk to the appropriate patients, visits, forms, and fields in Rave EDC, saving a lot of time otherwise spent manually posting them individually. In 2023, the capabilities will be expanded with AI-driven data reconciliation for adverse events, concomitant medications, and medical history.

Medidata User Experience -- NEW!

In the spirit of continuous improvement, we will be enhancing our homepage, navigation flow, and notifications for a more user-friendly experience. Customers will be able to access information on the Medidata platform easily through the new shared design, language, and overall experience. This step of the evolving Medidata platform will include a newly designed homepage as well as an enhanced global navigation process.

On the homepage, users will soon be able to easily access notification center and a central page where users can securely read study-related alerts and events. This will be rolled out in phases to segmented groups; please send an email to medidata.partners@3ds.com for more info.

COMMERCIAL DESK

We've made a few changes to the Bid Request form regarding Medidata Detect. It now includes fit-for-purpose modules developed to fit specific user activities and analyses, as follows:

• Patient Data Surveillance (PDS) module -- now includes Patient Profiles and Data Reviewer. It also provides in-depth, subject-level data to ensure medical congruence between all data sources
• Patient Data Surveillance (PDT) + KRIs modules -- consolidated, user-friendly view into sites' currency and performance utilizing data from various sources
• End-to-End Data and risk surveillance -- available across the trial, breaking silos between operational users
