Using caBIG Tools to Conduct Clinical Trials in Cooperative Groups Raymond Lord MD Principal Investigator Kalamazoo CCOP West Michigan Cancer Center Michele Ehlman, CTMS Analyst Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Technology, NCI caBIG Steering Committee April 2, 2009
Survey of the Level of EMR Development in 2 Research Base Institutions Principal Investigators at ECOG November 2008 GOG January 2009
80 Institutions (ECOG 23 GOG 57) No one reported a totally paper medical record.
Specific Electronic Items in EMRECOG and GOG = 80 Institutions Reporting
Case Report Forms: Paper or Remote Data Capture? Paper Computer to Paper Patient’s Record Remote Data Capture Time consuming Risk for mistakes Personnel expense
Researcher reads screen & writes in Data Lab Device Electronic Medical Record HL7 Data form Faxed or Mailed Research Base Statistical Center Data Record Reads Data Form and enters data Reports and Graphs Publications
Researcher types Data to Research Web Site Lab Device Electronic Medical Record HL7 By this design the Research Base has avoided the manual entry on their part. Data is electronically sent Statistical Center Data Record Reports and Graphs Publications

Can we bypass Manual Entry? eCRF eData Clinical Trials Conducted Manual Entry CRF Research Base
Currently Identified Use Cases/Requirements • Ability to create a protocol electronically and replicate electronically at each site • Predefined Downloadable Treatment Plans to local computers for use electronically by clinicians • Ability for Lab values to be electronically linked to an EMR • Ability to upload and electronically link images to EMR • Ability to electronically link an executed consent form to EMR • Ability to electronically capture CTCAE for an EMR by the patient while waiting for their appointment. • Ability to send to eCRFs in packages to the Statistical Record Data Center
