Center of Excellence for Clinical Research at Japan's Keio University Chooses Medidata Rave
Medidata Solutions
announced that Keio Center for Clinical Research (CCR), one of Japan’s two centers of excellence promoting global clinical research, has chosen to standardize on
Medidata Rave
® as its electronic data capture (EDC) and clinical data management (CDM) solution.
Keio CCR was founded in 2006 as an academic research organization within Keio University School of Medicine under the auspices of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (MHLW) to assume a role in the national improvement of clinical trial infrastructure. Designated by the MHLW in 2009 as one of two centers of excellence to promote global clinical research, Keio CCR plans and supports investigator-initiated, non-NDA clinical trials and observational clinical research, as well as industry-sponsored translational research, registration trials and post-marketing studies.
“Medidata Rave will be key to supporting our strategy of facilitating high-quality clinical research while looking to deliver optimum treatments and improve patient welfare,” said Keio University Center for Clinical Research Professor Yuji Sato MD., PhD.
Keio CCR is upgrading its EDC solution in order to continue to expand, accelerate and improve the quality of its multinational and multicenter clinical studies. Medidata Rave’s investigator-friendly system, which was originally developed for academic clinical trials, will enable Keio CCR to continue to grow its clinical research capabilities.

Patient Engagement Platform Checklist
November 22nd 2024Modern clinical trials are more complex than ever, and one significant reason is the increased focus on patient engagement. Incorporating a patient engagement platform into your clinical trial enhances the patient experience and can lead to more successful trials with stronger, more reliable outcomes. We put together this helpful checklist of key features to look out for when choosing a platform for your study.
The Rise of Predictive Engagement Tools in Clinical Trials
November 22nd 2024Patient attrition can be a significant barrier to the success of a randomized controlled trial (RCT). Today, with the help of AI-powered predictive engagement tools, clinical study managers are finding ways to proactively reduce attrition rates in RCTs, and increase the effectiveness of their trial. In this guide, we look at the role AI-powered patient engagement tools play in clinical research, from the problems they’re being used to solve to the areas and indications in which they’re being deployed.
