Overview

CRIO (clinicalresearch.io) develops an eSource platform designed for clinical research sites, sponsors, and contract research organizations (CROs). The platform collects data directly at the point of patient interaction, with the stated goal of reducing administrative burden on sites while supporting protocol compliance. CRIO was created by a team of clinical research experts and is positioned as an end-to-end technology solution for streamlining trial operations.

CRIO serves three primary audiences: clinical research sites seeking to streamline day-to-day operations, sponsors requiring real-time visibility into site data and performance, and CROs looking to improve site accuracy and efficiency across their study portfolios.

Core eSource Capabilities

  • Fully configurable and scalable templates that standardize data capture across studies
  • Real-time data access to support remote monitoring and cross-team collaboration
  • Reporting and query tools designed to enhance data quality and site performance
  • A connected ecosystem of integrated tools supporting essential data collection workflows

Reported Performance Outcomes

  • 40% higher patient enrollment reported by sites using the platform
  • 40% faster study startup compared to baseline
  • 40% fewer protocol deviations observed

Central eSource and Deployment Approach

  • CRIO offers a concept referred to as Central eSource®, described as a model that standardizes critical data points across sites while allowing individual sites to configure the system to align with their own local practices
  • The platform supports virtual, hybrid, and traditional study structures, as noted by CRO partner Curavit, which has incorporated CRIO as a core technology in its digital-first operations
  • The Reviewer interface provides sponsors with a tool for direct data capture and in-house clinical trial oversight
