Center for Clinical Trials and Data Coordination (CCDC)

The Center for Clinical Trials and Data Coordination (CCDC) aims to be a national leader in the design, conduct, coordination, and analysis of clinical trials. Established in 2015, the CCDC guides clinical trials from conception to closeout, employing a system that seamlessly integrates critical elements of clinical trial management including: electronic data capture, eligibility & randomization, drug & external data tracking, safety reporting, outcome adjudication, data & safety monitoring, statistical analysis & reporting, data sharing, and regulatory compliance. The CCDC uses clinical research data coordinators who function as conduits between the clinical, data, and statistical teams of each study. The coordinators oversee protocol development & training, on-site and centralized study monitoring, safety reporting, and regulatory compliance. This alleviates the burden on the clinical side of the study, thereby facilitating more timely data analysis, publication, and data sharing. Its emphasis on standardization and streamlining, combined with the established statistical analysis and data management infrastructure of the Center for Research on Heath Care Data Center, makes the CCDC the preeminent place for comprehensive clinical trials-related support.
