IWRS
Patient randomization and enrollment management for clinical trials with stratification, blinding, and multiple randomization methods.
Overview
Dacima's IWRS (Interactive Web Response System) is a web-based patient randomization module designed for clinical trials. It is fully integrated into Dacima's eClinical Suite and supports the configuration of patient randomization processes and enrollment/eligibility forms without requiring programming expertise.
The module is intended for a range of clinical trial roles, including trial coordinators, investigators, nurses, monitors, and biostatisticians. It supports both single-centre and multi-centre trial designs, with the option to delegate randomization management to participating centres.
Setup and Configuration
- Graphical User Interface (GUI) for configuring the randomization process without programming knowledge
- Design of enrollment and eligibility forms, including validation checks and eligibility rules
- Configuration of patient ID format
- Support for single-stage enrollment forms or multi-stage enrollment forms for studies requiring multiple steps or stages
- Configuration of inclusion and exclusion criteria
Randomization Methods and Options
- Simple randomization, block randomization, and permuted block randomization
- Minimization functionality
- Stratification options
- Blinded and unblinded randomization options
