Abstract

The development of analysis-ready data for clinical trials is a complicated process that is often problematic. Not only are the data inherently complex, but also analytical and reporting requirements tend to evolve over a period of time. Additional difficulties arise because of the number of individuals working with the data and the varied uses of the data. A new approach is described that greatly facilitates the creation, maintenance, and documentation of these data. Results are encouraging and include contributing to high quality and improved productivity.
