Clinical Intelligence Analytics - Study

Study Dashboard


In study dashboard (Figure 3.1), we will look at certain aspects of study at aggregated level as well as at a study level. 
Figure 3.1

The study dashboard will try to answer following questions:

1. What is the average study completion duration for sponsors from Industry and non-Industry?

For all types of studies (All), the sponsors from Industry completed the studies in about 1.9 years. In comparison to that, sponsors from non-industry took almost 3 years to complete the study.
The observational studies (Obs) took longer to complete. The Industry sponsors with an average of 2.3 years performed fairly better than the non-industry sponsors with an average of 3.2 years.
For interventional type of studies (Int), the average study took 1.8 years for Industry sponsor as compared to 2.9 years for non-industry sponsors.
We may further want to look at the study duration by the phase of the study. Phase 3 studies are large scale and complex in nature and hence, it should take longer to complete when compared with phase 1 and phase 2 studies. Let's see what we find. Only interventional studies go through the drug development phases. If you take a look at Avg Study Duration by Phase chart, Phase 2 studies took longest among all the study phases with an average of 3.3 years. Phase 3 studies took an average of 2.9 years to complete where as phase 4 studies took 2.4 years. Early phase 1 studies took longer than the phase 1 studies.

2. What is the share of sponsors from industry and non-industry in interventional or observational studies?
Almost 80% of studies were interventional studies. 56% of 80% which 70% of total interventional studies were sponsored by non-industry sponsors. The industry sponsors have greater share in interventional studies as compared to its share in observational studies.

3. What percentage of studies were completed between 0 to 3 years or between 8 to 10 years?
40% of the studies were completed between 1 to 3 years. Around 29% studies were completed in less than 1 year. 

4. Which studies took the longest to complete?
There are 44 studies (0.02%) that took more than 30 years to complete. The study that took longest was sponsored by Johnson & Johnson to evaluate the efficacy of oral Levofloxacin in the treatment of chronic Bronchitis. This study took 63 years to complete starting in 1931 and completing in 1994 and has enrolled 367 patients. 

5. At study level, how many medical conditions a particular study is conducted?
See the tabular report to view the number of enrollment, medical conditions and the number of study sites and countries of subject recruitment.

6. In how many countries and facilities did a study recruited patients?
See the tabular report.
The dashboard will show the description of the selected study.
