Open Source – Open Source in Pharma, Regulatory Acceptance and Validation

The Open Source Technology in Clinical Data Analysis (OSTCDA) project was set up with the aim to create a manuscript on the integration of open-source software solutions for clinical data management, analysis and reporting.

Questions we addressed during this Webinar:

  • How do you establish reproducibility and traceability with open-source solutions, e.g. R package management?
  • How do you document your trust in an open-source solution to satisfy a third-party inquiry?

As well as the GitHub Discussion, we are hosting a series of forums throughout the year. See the Working Group Events page for further details.
