Abstract

Decentralized clinical trials (DCTs) are trials where some or all of the trial-related activities occur at locations other than traditional clinical trial sites. FDA supports decentralization to improve participation in clinical trials. While there are benefits of DCTs, including convenience for participants, sponsors and investigators should be aware of potential challenges such as coordination of trial activities at locations other than traditional trial sites and supervision of delegated trial-activities performed remotely. Appropriate training, oversight, and up-front risk assessment and management will be key to implementing a DCT successfully.
