Weโ€™re hitting the road. Next stop, Boston for DPHARM. ๐Ÿ‘‹

John Harvey, RealTimeโ€™s Enterprise Director of Sales, will be on the ground connecting with pharma and clinical research leaders about how we can work together to move clinical trials forward.

Because innovation doesnโ€™t happen in a vacuum. It takes stronger partnerships across sponsors, CROs, and research sites โ€” and technology that makes it easier for those partners to work together.

Weโ€™re looking forward to conversations about whatโ€™s next for clinical research, where the biggest opportunities are, and how we can build a better-connected trial ecosystem together.

The FDA is exploring a real-time clinical trial model that could fundamentally change how clinical trial data moves, from periodic reporting to continuous, structured data exchange. What does that mean for research sites?

It starts with the infrastructure behind the data.

Is source data captured electronically?
Can it move between systems without being recreated?
Is it available when itโ€™s needed, or does getting it downstream still depend on manual exports, reconciliation, and preparation?

In this post, RealTime CEO Jeff Kozloff looks beyond the FDAโ€™s pilot to a bigger question: What would a shift toward continuous clinical trial data actually require from research sites?

Product Tip of the Month: BYOT - Stop re-validating tech you already trust

If your site is re-validating and retraining on a new eSource, eReg, or eConsent system for every sponsor and every study, you're doing work BYOT was built to eliminate.

Under Bring Your Own Technology, sites keep the systems they already know and have already validated. No new logins. No new training cycles. No re-proving compliance from scratch each time a study starts.

Sponsors don't lose visibility. Interoperability standards like CDISC ODM, USDM, and FHIR carry the data through in a format they can trust.

The tip: before your next study kickoff, ask whether the sponsor's tech stack is actually required. BYOT gives you grounds to push back.

Most clinical research sites think they're tracking KPIs. Almost no one tracks them in real time. New RealTime Reports data, shared in our recent webinar, KPIs Every Research Site Should be Tracking (and How to Automate Them), shows the gap clearly:

โ†’ 76% of sites rely on CTMS reports for oversight
โ†’ But 71% are still capturing performance metrics manually or with only partial automation
โ†’ And 81% say enrollment rate vs. target is a top leadership metric โ€” one that's often assembled well after the fact

The four KPIs every site leader should have live visibility into:

-Study start-up timelines
-Feasibility responsiveness
-Enrollment performance
-Conversion rate (opportunity โ†’ activated study)

The sites that consistently win more studies aren't working harder to hit these numbers. They've automated the capture, so the numbers are already there when stakeholders ask.

The proof: Devana users turn around feasibility responses in 1-2 days, 75% of the time. Non-users hit that speed only 15% of the time.

Before Rick Greenfield built clinical trial technology, he ran a clinical research site. That experience shaped how he thought about patient recruitment.

He knew firsthand that sites could spend significant time and money driving prospective participants to their websites, only for what happened next to become a manual, time-consuming process. And in recruitment, every delay creates another opportunity to lose patient interest.

So he built a better way.

The web integration feature in RealTime CTMS allows prospective participants to move directly from a siteโ€™s website into the recruitment workflow โ€” with study-specific landing pages, pre-screening questions, automated qualification, and leads flowing directly into the CTMS.

Today, as RealTimeโ€™s Founder and Chief Strategy Officer, Rick continues to bring that site-level perspective to how we think about technology and the challenges research organizations face.

In The Recruitment Playbook for Clinical Trials, Rick shares the essentials for building a stronger recruitment operation, from creating a patient database you can continuously grow and activate, to automation, lead management, channel performance, and connected workflows.

And the results can be significant: one RealTime customer saw a 160% increase in enrolled patients using RealTimeโ€™s recruitment tools.

๐Ÿ“Š Your pipeline isn't just a list of opportunities. It's a measure of your site's growth potential.

For clinical research sites, having a strong pipeline can impact everything from financial stability and resource planning to sponsor relationships and long-term growth. But if you can't clearly see what's moving forward, what's stalled, and where your next opportunities are coming from, it's difficult to make informed decisions.

Sponsors and CROs want partners who can demonstrate responsiveness, reliability, and consistent performance. The right metrics can help you show them what your site is capable of.

Start by tracking:
โ†’ Start-up to milestone turnaround timelines โ€‹
โ†’ Feasibility responsiveness โ€‹
โ†’ Enrollment performance across trials & indicationsโ€‹
โ†’ Pipeline conversionโ€‹

With RealTime-Devana, research organizations can centralize pipeline activity, automate workflows, and turn operational data into real-time insight.

Because when you can see your pipeline clearly, you can manage it strategically and build a stronger foundation for growth. Learn more about how Devana can help: https://realtime-eclinical.com/solutions/devana/

Your technology stack isn't just an IT decision. For clinical research sites, it can be a competitive advantage.

As sponsors and CROs increasingly look for sites that can move quickly, execute consistently, and deliver high-quality data, the technology supporting your operations matters more than ever. But that doesn't necessarily mean adopting every sponsor-provided system or adding another tool to an already crowded tech stack.

Bring Your Own Technology (BYOT) gives sites greater control over the systems they use to run studies, helping teams work in familiar, validated platforms while reducing unnecessary technology burden and improving operational consistency.

So what does a strategic, site-led technology stack actually look like? And how can the right technology help your organization compete for more opportunities, improve ex*****on, and scale?

๐Ÿ“˜ The Clinical Research Site Playbook, Vol. 4: BYOT โ€” Why Your Technology Stack Is Your Competitive Advantage explores the case for site-led technology and what research organizations should consider when building a smarter, more sustainable tech strategy.

Clinical research shouldn't require your team to jump between systems, remember multiple logins, or piece together data from disconnected platforms.

RealTime's integrated Site Operations Management System (SOMS) brings powerful, mission-critical eClinical solutions together in one integrated platform, giving research teams a centralized place to manage the workflows that keep studies moving.

๐Ÿ”น CTMS for study and financial management
๐Ÿ”น eSource for real-time source data capture
๐Ÿ”น eReg/eISF for regulatory document management
๐Ÿ”น Plus participant engagement, business intelligence, and more

One system.
One connected view of your research operations.

Instead of managing a collection of eClinical tools, make SOMS your command center for running clinical research from start to finish.

Sites ask why they need eSource when they already have an EHR.

Because an EHR and an eSource system are built for different jobs.

One is built for patient care. The other is built for clinical trial data, 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, and audit readiness.

When sites rely on an EHR as their trial's source system, the gaps show up in predictable places: manual transcription, data reconciliation between source and sponsor databases, and audit trails that were never designed for trial-specific data.

eSource closes those gaps by capturing data directly at the source (lab results, patient diaries, ECGs, site staff entries) in real time, with the audit trail and traceability built in from the start.

RealTime works with 9 of the top 10 global site networks. In one case: a site's move to eSource fed a 28x revenue increase.

Swipe through for the breakdown of where EHR ends and eSource begins.
