<p>The book concisely covers the entire landscape of ePROs and helps to dispel some of the myths and doubts on the topic. After making the case for ePRO assessment, the authors take the readers on a tour of issues related to design, validation, and implementation of ePRO solutions. The authors have provided recommendations (“Should skipping of items allowed?”), mitigation strategies (“How can we minimize issues that may arise during user acceptance testing?”) and common pitfalls, such as issues that may arise when administering these assessments to patients from a variety of cultures. The bibliography of industry standards and best practices and the key references related to ePRO assessment make this book a valuable resource for anyone who wants to take a deep dive into the topic. Although the title of the book refers to patient-reported outcomes, the volume is a must-have for those who want to collect accurate and high-quality data relating to clinical outcomes in clinical trials.

<p>Patient reported outcomes (PROs) are a measurement based on a report that comes directly from the patient about the status of their health condition without amendment or interpretation of the patient’s response by a clinician or anyone else. Valid and reliable PRO instruments are able to provide a standardized, quantifiable measure of treatment benefit, upon which the outcomes of interventions and treatment effect from the patient’s perspective can be judged. In some instances, PROs provide the best evidence of a treatment’s effectiveness, for example when evaluating treatments for pain, gastrointestinal and urological symptoms, or psychological well-being. This book aims to provide an overview of PRO applications, methodology and validation in order to help reader approach this measurement that are playing an increasingly central role in drug development decision making.</p>
