eCOA+
Electronic clinical outcome assessment and digital measures for real-time participant data collection in clinical trials.
Overview
Medable's eCOA+ is an electronic Clinical Outcome Assessment (eCOA) software solution designed for clinical trial sponsors, CROs, and study teams seeking faster study builds, higher-quality data collection, and an improved experience for both sites and patients. As part of Medable's unified data collection platform, eCOA+ integrates seamlessly with eConsent, telehealth, and sensor capabilities, connecting into existing clinical ecosystems through standardized integrations.
eCOA+ delivers industry-leading speed and quality in evidence generation, offering a library of 400+ pre-built and validated instruments, support for 120+ languages, and availability across 70+ countries. The platform is purpose-built to take eCOA off the critical path of study start-up, enabling teams to focus on advancing patient care rather than managing configuration and build timelines.
