Birds-of-a-Feather Webinar & Discussion: Investigator Oversight on eCOA data - what is a good evidence?
Date: January 29, 2020 Duration: One hour
Facilitator: Cinzia Piccini, Eli Lilly
Open To: Staff from eClinical Forum member companies gratis (If you are not an eCF member, please review our website www.eclinicalforum.org for membership information or contact info@eclinicalforum.org ) Members can contact webmaster3@eclinicalforum.org for registration information.
Background: eClinical Forum webinar sessions focus on the details of a specific topic. All participants are encouraged to share information and ask questions. Anyone from an eCF member company can participate, gratis. The facilitator will [try to] keep the subject on track and prompt discussion and information sharing.
For This Topic: As there are no regulatory detailed expectations on oversight by investigators on eCOA data, multiple approaches have been adopted across the industry (from log-in as evidence to notification/alerts or investigator signature on eCOA data). In general, as per other data sources, oversight for eCOA data should be continual and not once at the end of the study. In addition, oversight activities should be right-sized according to the criticality of the data and protocol requirements for compliance. Evidence of the oversight should be available during the conduct of the trial and enduring for the entire retention period. The aim of this webinar is to allow participants to share different approaches and any knowledge of current expectations by regulatory inspectors.
Time: This webinar will be offered twice so that all eCF members around the world will (hopefully) be able to join during a convenient time.
Webinar A: Europe and Asia Pacific Facing -- UTC 0800
Webinar B: Americas and Europe Facing -- UTC 1600

Birds-of-a-Feather Round Table Discussion: New recommendations from EMA on the frequency of investigators’ signature collection on eCRF data
In July 2020, EMA released a new Q&A to provide further expectations on continuous oversight and frequency of investigators’ signature collection on eCRF data reported to the sponsor. Prior to filing a marketing authorization application, all eCRF data should be signed and dated. But also important data such as that related to reporting of SAEs, adjudication of important events and endpoint data, DSMB review, should be signed off in a timely manner. In addition, a timely review and sign-off of data that are entered directly into the CRF as source is particularly important.
The intent of this webinar is to identify if there are new challenges, and if any – to proceed with an update to the eCF best practices on investigator signatures document that was released in 2017.
BoF Round-table Discussion: Considerations and challenges for electronic research data archival at sites using direct download
The implementation of new solutions to share electronically the eCRF PDFs with sites have brought up new considerations and challenges to this process.
We would like everyone to share their experiences on how the process has been implemented, as well as the challenges experienced. This will be a group discussion on the recommendations to make this process as straight forward as possible for Sites and Sponsors, while complying with requirements.
