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.

Core Capabilities

  • Combines eClinROs, ePROs, ePerfOs, eObsROs, and digital measures to capture both objective and subjective participant data in a standardized, compliant manner
  • A reusable instrument library of 400+ pre-validated assessments, instruments, and diaries enables rapid deployment and consistent data collection across studies
  • AI-enabled automation reduces delivery timelines by up to 50%, accelerating study start-up and enabling faster capture of novel endpoints
  • Real-time data capture supports immediate, clinically meaningful insights and real-time decision making
  • Study teams can store instruments, including translations, in a library for rapid reuse in future studies
  • Dashboards keep teams informed of all start-up activities throughout the study lifecycle

Device Flexibility and Patient Experience

  • Supports both BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and provisioned devices, accessible via mobile app or web browser, expanding reach to previously inaccessible patient populations
  • Consumer-grade UX with notifications, reports, and submission-ready data, vetted by Medable's Patient Caregiver Network (PCN) and clinicians to ensure accessibility

  • Combines traditional eCOA instruments with digital biomarker capture for a comprehensive evidence generation approach

Workflow and Site Efficiency

  • Intuitive and automated workflows remove manual entry and configuration time for sites and study teams
  • Study build times are up to 35x faster compared to traditional approaches
  • eCOA planning is recommended during protocol design to ensure instrument licensing, translations, and visit schedules are aligned from the outset
  • Reusable instrument library supports standardized, consistent data collection that drives real-time decision making across studies

Support and Compliance

  • 24/7 global customer care support for sites, patients, and study teams throughout the trial, ensuring seamless technology adoption, protocol compliance, and user satisfaction
  • Fully compliant with FDA, CFR 21 Part 11, HIPAA, and GDPR standards
