Unblinding

: A procedure in which one or more parties to the trial are made aware of the treatment assignment(s) or IP type. Blinding is used in the design of some trials and other research studies to try to eliminate the bias of expectation influencing the research findings.

Clinical Trial Management System (CTMS)

software system used by biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries to manage clinical trials in clinical research. The system maintains and manages planning, performing and reporting functions, along with participant contact information, tracking deadlines and milestones.

Sub Investigator

Any individual member of the clinical trial team designated and supervised by the investigator at a trial site to perform critical trial-related procedures and/or to make important trial-related decisions (e.g., associates, residents, research fellows).

Blinding

Blinding: A clinical trial design strategy in which one or more parties involved in the trial, such as the investigator or participants, do not know which participants have been assigned which treatment assignment(s). Single-blinding usually refers to the subject(s) being unaware, and double blinding usually refers to the subject(s), investigator(s), monitor and those involved in study conduct being unaware of the treatment assignment(s).

blinded study

Clinical trial in which the patient (single-blind) or patient and investigator (double-blind) are unaware of which treatment the patient receives. Involves use of multiple treatment groups such as other active, placebo or alternate dose groups. Sometimes referred to as "masked. try to eliminate the bias of expectation influencing the research findings.

Intended Unblinding

Unblinding events that can be expected to occur in clinical research (e.g., emergency unblinding at the investigator site, submission of unblinded safety reports to regulatory authorities, laboratory alerts, and Clinical Study Report (CSR).

Randomization

objects or individuals are randomly assigned (by chance) to an experimental group. Using randomization is the most reliable method of creating homogeneous treatment groups, without involving any potential biases or judgments.

Unblinded Study

A type of study in which that subjects are advised of all aspects of the study.

Partial Unblinding

Information that, when coupled with one or more pieces of data, may result in the unblinding of a subject's treatment, or knowledge that a group of subjects are on the same treatment arm or IP (Investigational Product) type (e.g., discovering that certain vials/bottles/etc. are placebo).

Principal investigator (PI)

is the holder of an independent grant administered by a university and the lead researcher for the grant project, usually in the sciences, such as a laboratory study or a clinical trial. The phrase is also often used as a synonym for "head of the laboratory" or "research group leader."
