Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) Services
A DSMB is an independent group of experts who monitor the progress and safety of a clinical trial and make recommendations to the sponsor and principal investigator about whether the study should continue, be modified, or be terminated.
Our CRO team has helped several Data Safety Monitoring Boards (DSMB) during the conduct of clinical trials with the following activities:
- Review study data on a regular basis to assess the safety and efficacy of the study intervention.
- Monitor adverse events reported during the study and make recommendations for managing these events.
- Identify potential safety signals in the study data and make recommendations for further investigation.
- Perform statistical analysis of the study data to assess the safety and efficacy of the study intervention.
- Make recommendations to the sponsor and principal investigator about whether the study should continue, be modified, or be terminated.
- Provide impartial safety advice, often in the context of benefit and risk.

Safety Monitoring
We monitor patient safety by conducting regular safety reviews, monitoring adverse events, and ensuring that safety reports are complete and up-to-date. This helps the DSMB to make informed decisions about the safety of the trial and to take appropriate action if necessary.
Regulatory Compliance
Assist the DSMB in ensuring that the trial is conducted in compliance with regulatory requirements and guidelines. This includes monitoring the trial for deviations from the protocol, ensuring that informed consent is obtained, and reporting adverse events to the relevant authorities.
