This session will give an in-depth examination of Central Statistical Monitoring (CSM) with emphasis on the following issues:
- Statistical principles underlying Central Statistical Monitoring
- On-site monitoring vs. key risk indicators vs. CSM
- Operational challenges in implementing CSM
- Case studies identifying the impact and utility of this unique
approach - The added value of CSM:
1. Improving data quality and integrity
2. Reducing regulatory submission risk
3. Driving down costs on On-site Monitoring and SDV
4. Adhering to the regulatory guidelines and driving a Risk-Based Monitoring strategy

CluePoints
CluePoints is a Central Statistical Monitoring solution that has been designed and perfected over the last 10 years. It employs unique statistical algorithms to determine the quality, accuracy and integrity of clinical trial data both during and after study conduct.
Aligned with guidance from the FDA and EMA, CluePoints is deployed to support traditional on-site monitoring and can be implemented as the engine to drive a risk-based monitoring strategy.
The value of using CluePoints lies in its powerful and timely ability to identify anomalous data and site errors allowing improvement in clinical data quality, optimization of on-site monitoring and a significant reduction in overall regulatory submission risk.
