The VCU C. Kenneth and Dianne Wright Center for Clinical and Translational Research hosted its fifth and final seminar as part of an ongoing Fall Brown Bag series where representatives from the VCU Wright CCTR raised awareness of the various tools and services offered by the Center. 

Robert “Bobby” Moulden, manager of Clinical Trials Management System for the VCU Wright CCTR, led this presentation with a particular focus on Online Collaborative Research Environment (OnCore), which is a Clinical Trials Management System (CTMS) designed specifically for large academic medical centers with vibrant, expanding clinical research programs. The event received a large turnout with representatives from the VCU Department of Pathology, VCU Massey Cancer Center, VCU Department of Neurosurgery, and the VCU Department of Internal Medicine, among others in attendance. 

OnCore is a web-accessible, centralized database with role-based security. It provides a platform to track clinical research studies and participants, and includes features such as  audit/monitoring capabilities, electronic case report forms (eCRFs), and custom reporting. Additionally, patient research participation is now shared from OnCore to Cerner through an integration.

Moulden and his team reviewed OnCore’s audit console, which supports a standard institutional audit process and incorporates input provided by the VCU Office of Research and Innovation’s Clinical Research Compliance Program, the Institutional Review Board, and VCU Massey Cancer Center.

“OnCore helps coordinators work together on the most up to date forms and information,” Moulden said. “It eliminates the need for teams to email files back and forth and provides a secure platform for materials containing patient health information.”
