Clinical Outcome Assessments (COA): Diving Deeper, Applying Scientific Rigor and Good Instrument Design

Life Sciences, Clinical Trials,
  • Tuesday, February 21, 2023

The bedrock of a successful trial is a well-designed protocol with reliable measurements of biomedical and health-related outcomes to satisfy regulatory standards. There is a knowledge gap between the field of clinical trials and other relevant scientific disciplines on fundamental methodological principles that should govern the collection of clinical outcome assessments (COA) data. This webinar takes a deep dive into how scientific rigor can be applied to COA even though they are subjective. The featured speakers will synthesize the scientific practices underpinning good instrument design and COA data collection methods and recommend next steps for addressing data collection challenges.

Join this webinar to learn more about applying scientific rigor and good instrument design to clinical outcome assessments.
