Decentralized Clinical Trials in Early Drug Development-A Framework Proposal.
Review in Journal of immunotherapy and precision oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a rethinking of clinical trial design to maintain clinical research activity, with regulatory changes allowing for the wider implementation and development of decentralized design models. Evidence of the feasibility and benefits associated with a remote design comes mainly from observational studies or phase 2 and 3 clinical trials, in which implementation is easier with a better-established safety profile. Early drug development is a slow and expensive process in which accrual and safety are key aspects of success. Applying a decentralized model to phase 1 clinical trials could improve patient accrual by removing geographic barriers, improving patient population diversity, strengthening evidence for rare tumors, and reducing patients' financial and logistical burdens. However, safety monitoring, data quality, shipment, and administration of the investigational product are challenges to its implementation. Based on published data for decentralized clinical trials, we propose an exploratory framework of solutions to enable the conceptualization of a decentralized model for phase 1 clinical trials.
