What is Paradigm Shifts in Clinical Trials Enabled by Information Technology about?

## Abstract The use of the world wide web for clinical trials changes the processes of performing clinical research in several fundamental ways. Greatly improved security, monitoring capability, and accuracy and timeliness of study conduct can be achieved while lowering cost. Data quality is enhanced while co‐ordinating centre effort is reduced. The web provides a natural environment for linking the various components of clinical research, leading to new levels of simplicity and efficiency. It also enhances opportunities for recruitment of study investigators and patients. Other information technology tools and databases can be used to assist in this regard as well. Web‐based trials change the relationship of the investigator site to the study and the site to the co‐ordinating centre. Different roles and responsibilities lead to simplified processes and more and higher quality data. Many standard co‐ordinating centre activities, such as randomization, protocol implementation and amending, document tracking, adverse event reporting, site monitoring, report generation and data analysis are all fundamentally changed in a web‐based trial. Opportunities are enhanced to identify potentia
