Study to Evaluate the Dynamic Consent Model Based on the Blockchain-based Clinical Trial Platform METORY

November 4, 2021 updated by: SeungHwan Lee, Seoul National University Hospital

A Virtual Clinical Trial to Implement and Evaluate the Dynamic Consent Model Based on the Blockchain-based Next-generation Clinical Trial Platform METORY

Blockchain technology has gained attention for its decentralized feature and data integrity. The study aims to apply blockchain technology to implement dynamic consent model and evaluate the real-world experience as a form of virtual clinical trial.

Study Overview

Status

Active, not recruiting

Conditions

Detailed Description

The study will simulate a clinical trial that implements dynamic consent module. In this study, two major and three minor protocol amendments will be conducted on the scheduled date. Each subjects will give consent using the dynamic consent platform, METORY, and will be informed when the protocol is amended. The communication only be conducted under the METORY and the real-world experience of METORY would be evaluated.

  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Other: Dynamic consent arm
Subjects will receive a virtual investigational product once daily. Subjects also need to measure their body temperature once daily at the scheduled timepoint.
The virtual investigational product is a predefined text (e.g. AB123F). By entering the code into the application, the virtual 'administration' of the IP is conducted.
