Agenda

• Background
• Status
• Technical architecture
• Demonstration

3
Background

• Background
• InferMed has established marketing partnerships
  with several patient diary companies
• Invivodata, CRFBox, Symfo, Clinitrac
• and held detailed discussions about how
  integration between diaries and MACRO could be
  achieved

4
Background

• Several InferMed customers, and potential
  customers, have expressed interest in an
  integrated solution for CRFs, patient diaries and
  quality of life questionnaires
• InferMed has decided to invest in developing a
  MACRO ePRO module
• ePRO (electronic Patient Reported Outcomes)
  Patient diaries Quality of Life questionnaires

5
Status

• First alpha version developed
• Demonstration today!
• Core technology complete
• ePRO designer
• ePRO database
• ePRO data entry
• ePRO synchronisation with MACRO
• Full feature set for beta version to be
  determined
• Seek guidance and ideas from customers

6
Status

• Current features include
• Device independence data can be collected on
  PDA or tablet
• Standard platform implementation (Microsoft)
• Wireless transfer of data to MACRO
• Seamless integration with MACRO
• Multi-language will support all character sets,
  including Kanji (but not yet)
• New ePRO schedule view in MACRO
• Multiple time schedules (ie. different diaries in
  morning / evening or at different periods during
  the study)
• Conditional branching and logic

7
Technical architecture

• ePRO development is paving the way for future
  MACRO developments
• .Net
• Multi-language
• Variable screen resolutions
• AREZZO re-implementation
• Experimental replacement of Prolog engine with
  .Net engine to evaluate validations, derivations
  and conditional branching
• Experience will contribute to review of AREZZO
