Update to Responsibilities/Assignment Groups

ClearTrial's 5.6 cost model offers the latest updates to the ClearTrial Responsibilities, also known as ClearTrial-defined Task/Assignment groups, and the tasks under each group.

Updates include new Responsibilities/Assignment groups and updates to existing ClearTrial Responsibilities group names and the order in which they are displayed on various tabs. The new task groups displayed for plans using the ClearTrial 5.6 cost model include:

Phase I (Oncology/Vaccines) through Phase IV or Late-Stage Plans:

  • Site Startup (New)

  • Medical Management (New)

  • Safety/Pharmacovigilance (Update to existing group Safety and Medical Management)

  • Quality Assurance (Update to existing group Site Auditing)

  • DSMB (New)

Phase I (Healthy Volunteers) Plans:

  • Site Startup (New)

  • Safety/Pharmacovigilance (New)

  • Quality Assurance (Update to existing group Site Auditing)

  • DSMB (New)

Additionally, existing ClearTrial-defined tasks have moved and will reside by default under different Responsibilities/Assignment groups in ClearTrial 5.6 cost model plans for both WBSs. As a result, default assignments for ClearTrial's Responsibilities have also changed when compared to plans using the ClearTrial 5.5 cost model.

If you have defined mappings for departments or GL codes by task or task group, you may wish to review these mappings after the upgrade.
