caBIG® Imaging’s sister program, caBIG® Clinical Trials Management Systems (CTMS) is continuing to develop, modular, interoperable and standards-based software tools designed to meet diverse clinical trials management needs. The tools developed are configurable to work with trial sites with little or no clinical data management systems in place as well as those with robust systems, and take into account the diversity of clinical research activities and local practices that exist among trial sites. The CCTS is a modular enterprise clinical trials management system designed to facilitate clinical workflows and data sharing in single and multi-site settings. Being designed primarily for use in trial sites, the suite is comprised of a collection of interoperable modules covering a broad range of key areas in clinical trials management. These include: study participant registration (C3PR), patient scheduling (PSC), adverse event management and reporting (caAERS), exchange of clinical laboratory data and other clinical data (caXchange and LabViewer)Protocol, person, and organization management, (NCI Enterprise Services) and integration with clinical data management systems ( Connectors). In the past year, the caBIG® Imaging and Clinical Trials programs have been working together in the interest of enabling the user to leverage both the above tools sets simultaneously for true “caBIG® powered” free, open source, and interoperable clinical trials management support with imaging functionality.
