Low-code, no-code approach accelerates eCOA questionnaire design and deployment, taking questionnaire creation, licensing, and localization off the critical path 

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Suvoda, a global clinical trial technology company specializing in complex studies in therapeutic areas like oncology, central nervous system (CNS), and rare diseases, announced the receipt of a patent from the US Patent Office for the Suvoda Questionnaire Definition Language (SQDL), part of the software architecture of its eCOA (electronic Clinical Outcome Assessment) product. 

The patent demonstrates the power of Suvoda eCOA: expedited questionnaire creation, translation, localization, and deployment so clinical trial sponsors can launch their studies more efficiently. While eCOA is traditionally a bottleneck in clinical trial implementation, Suvoda eCOA and its SQDL tool enable sponsors to deliver high quality questionnaires in a matter of hours, instead of days.  

“This recognition by the US Patent Office is a testament to the ingenuity, creativity, and technical excellence of our team. Many claim to offer similar capabilities, but Suvoda’s patented technology enables us to truly deliver on our promises. Suvoda eCOA accelerates questionnaire implementation in a regulatory compliant manner, which is crucial for the efficiency and success of clinical trials,” said Jagath Wanninayake, CEO of Suvoda. 

The patented architecture offers several key benefits: 

Easy eCOA questionnaire creation: Suvoda eCOA allows non-engineers to define eCOA questionnaires using a simple low-code/no-code approach, while maintaining rigorous regulatory compliance. It includes a real-time preview of each question, language, and layout configuration to improve feedback and productivity.

Accelerate development by parallel processing: Questionnaire definition, licensing, translation, and layout occur concurrently and are decoupled from the study build.

Localization partners work directly in Suvoda eCOA, previewing translations in real-time and minimizing back-and-forth with Suvoda and the sponsor. 

Simplified mid-study questionnaire updates: Questionnaires can be easily modified while maintaining the validated state of the eCOA system, so that mid-study changes do not delay data collection.

Efficient questionnaire and component reuse: Suvoda eCOA allows questionnaires, where permitted, to be stored and reused in an accessible and organized way and allows for compatibility with newly updated devices without affecting system validation. 

“The SQDL architecture fundamentally changes how eCOA questionnaires are created by supporting parallel construction of translations and layouts. We have patented the core of what we do, supporting a powerful no-code/low-code definition layer that enables an ecosystem of tools—like real-time, device-accurate previews and screenshot generation—that can improve eCOA implementation and deployment,” explained Andrew McVeigh, Suvoda’s Chief Architect. 

Suvoda eCOA is part of a comprehensive suite of clinical trial solutions, including IRT (Interactive Response Technology), eConsent, and the recently launched ePatient. Unified on the purpose-built Suvoda technology platform, these products support clinical trial sponsors in the most urgent moments of their studies, enabling them to enhance operational efficiency, reduce site-burden, transform patients’ trial journeys, and help advance human health.

The State Bank of Vietnam’s 2024 report highlights Vietnam as a top FDI destination, ranking 25th globally and outpacing regional peers like Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand.
