Clinical data management is hitting a limit - and it’s a good thing. We’re finally moving away from a "clean everything" approach and toward smarter ways of working. Our 2026 Clinical Data Trend Report examines 10 industry forces making trials more manageable and effective: https://lnkd.in/er_cSg9g Why it matters: 1. RBDM reality: 57% of data managers believe a risk-based approach is essential for their role. 2. AI is finally delivering: We’ve moved past the hype to "smart automation"—applying AI to practical, high-ROI tasks like medical coding. 3. Regulations are changing: New ICH E6(R3) demands better data-level traceability and proportional oversight. 4. Giving time back to sites: By replacing manual entry and disconnected systems with direct data flows, sites can focus on their patients rather than paperwork. By focusing on the data that truly impacts results, we can improve quality, reduce burden, and deliver better trials for everyone.
