Electronic Data Capture (EDC)


Clinical Trial Data Collection

Prelude’s EDC is a web-based software application designed for clinical trial data collection while maintaining regulatory compliance. It replaces the traditional method of recording data on paper with electronic case report forms (eCRFs) designed and built per your study protocol.

Build User-Friendly Workflows

  • Allow users to access your study from anywhere in the world at any time
  • Control access to every aspect of your study, including masked and blinded data points
  • Follow your sites’ progress by tracking study participation and performance

Collect Higher Quality Data

  • Lower the learning curve – eCRFs look just like paper forms
  • Collect relevant data as robust edit checks clean data in real-time
  • Sites have data too! We offer comprehensive data collection and reporting for subjects, sites, users, and the study itself
