Clinical Outcome Assessments (COAs) are only useful if they prioritize the patient. Meeting this requirement becomes more complicated when clinical trials are decentralized. In these cases, valid clinical outcome assessment translations (COA translations) become vital when using patient-reported outcomes (PROs) across different cultures and languages. Unless clinical outcome assessment localizations are done with attention to cultural and linguistic subtleties, patients may interpret questions differently. This lack of accurate, nuanced life sciences translation could lead to compromised data comparability. Unlike translation in any other vertical, COA instruments necessitate thorough linguistic validation. This part of the clinical research translation process evaluates cultural and conceptual equivalence to source material, and it safeguards clinical trial data quality and patient safety. Watch our video to learn more about the benefits of specialized clinical outcome assessment translations.
When to Use Clinical Outcome Assessment Translations
Conducting successful global studies isn’t just about performing clinical outcome assessment translations. It’s also about when you do it. Clinical trial sponsors should be integrating these essential steps into their strategies from the beginning:
- Licensing
- Linguistic validation (COA-specific translation approach)
- eCOA implementation and Screenshot Review
These are vital considerations in planning and should never be afterthoughts. Companies like Lionbridge, which has decades of experience in clinical outcome assessment localizations and the latest AI translation techniques, can assist with all of these crucial steps. We bring a deep network of global translators who are experienced in life sciences translation and are ready to ensure patients, caregivers, and families understand assessments as intended.
