Pharmaceutical companies are under tremendous pressure to bring new drugs to market. They must do so as quickly and cost-effectively as possible, but the R & D and testing process can be time-consuming and costly.

The longest and most expensive element of this process is the clinical trial. The key challenge in Phase II and III of these trials is to capture patient data that is complete and accurate. The traditional paper-based diaries can be challenging for both the patients and the data entry clerks. Correcting and authenticating questionable data is expensive and may cause a delay in the submission for FDA approval. Delays can potentially cost a company millions of dollars a day in lost revenue.

Electronic patient diaries are accelerating clinical trial timeframes by improving patient compliance, speeding up data collection, improving data validity and data processing efficiency, as well as providing real time status analysis. Thus, the new drug development process is streamlined.

Whether you are a patient, an investigator, or a pharmaceutical company, everyone benefits when palmOne handhelds are the device of choice for Electronic Patient Diaries.
