Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011103523A1] A complex set of performance related requirements defined initially in a clinical trial agreement are functionally evaluated to determine an action responsive to a successful evaluation. A first message identifying a first event initiated transaction within the performance of a clinical trial provides an identification of an investigator and a first event defined data set. Executable template code blocks, specific to the clinical trial and investigator, are retrieved from a distributed database. The executable template code blocks represent declarative* statements that represent discrete operational and financial requirements derived from the clinical trial agreement corresponding to the clinical trial and investigator. An application is executed to determine whether the first event data evaluates successfully against the executable template code blocks. Successful evaluation generates a second event that provides a second message, including the identification of the investigator, clinical trial, and a second event defined data set to the distributed computer system.
