Description
Elisabeth Piault and five co-authors present a framework for building remote monitoring tools into clinical trials, so patients can be watched from home instead of traveling to sites. Their blueprint starts from three directions at once: what patients need, what care teams need, and what regulators demand. They illustrate it with recent deployments that tracked skin toxicity and mouth sores in trial patients.
Remote monitoring promises richer data and lighter patient burden, but adoption stalls on practical problems: device burden, data overload, and trust in measurements made outside the clinic. The article walks through strategies for those obstacles, from choosing only measures that change decisions to easing patients into the tools. The authors write for trial designers weighing digital transformation, arguing that monitoring succeeds when the framework, not the gadget, leads. Their examples show the approach working in real oncology trial settings.
