GENEVA--(Marketwire - March 12, 2009) - In a thought provoking new article written for Pharmaceutical Executive Europe’s website, PHT Corporation’s European General Manager Dr. Valdo Arnera outlines specific reasons why pharmaceutical companies should replace paper diaries with ePRO.
“If a trial’s primary endpoints are reported from patients, it makes no sense to use paper diaries,” writes Dr. Arnera in the article. “Trials are all about data; it’s the only thing they ultimately produce and paper diaries do not yield high quality data streams.”
Dr. Arnera has nearly 20 years of science and management experience in the pharmaceutical industry. A frequent speaker, he has been co-chair of the DIA’s Special Interest Area Communities eClinical and Standards committee. In 2008, PharmaVOICE named Dr. Arnera to the list of the 100 most inspiring people in life sciences.
