METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENERATING A MASTER CLINICAL DATABASE AND USES THEREOF

摘要

A method and system for generating a master clinical database from disparate sources, including public databases, private databases, and data from users, correlating the received data, determining a degree of confidence in and requesting and seeking confirmation of any data matched from the correlated data. The invention may identify key time points and users from whom to seek and receive confirmation of correlated data. The invention may be utilized to create a cross-trial, cross-sponsor, clinical master database that maintains appropriate user, subject and data confidentiality and privacy and which may be utilized to facilitate study design collaboration.
