Suvoda has announced the receipt of a patent from the US Patent Office for the Suvoda Questionnaire Definition Language (SQDL), part of the software architecture of its eCOA (electronic Clinical Outcome Assessment) product. 

The patent demonstrates the power of Suvoda eCOA: expedited questionnaire creation, translation, localization, and deployment so clinical trial sponsors can launch their studies more efficiently. While eCOA is traditionally a bottleneck in clinical trial implementation, Suvoda eCOA and its SQDL tool enable sponsors to deliver high quality questionnaires in a matter of hours, instead of days. 

"This recognition by the US Patent Office is a testament to the ingenuity, creativity, and technical excellence of our team. Many claim to offer similar capabilities, but Suvoda's patented technology enables us to truly deliver on our promises. Suvoda eCOA accelerates questionnaire implementation in a regulatory compliant manner, which is crucial for the efficiency and success of clinical trials," said Jagath Wanninayake, CEO of Suvoda. 

"The SQDL architecture fundamentally changes how eCOA questionnaires are created by supporting parallel construction of translations and layouts. We have patented the core of what we do, supporting a powerful no-code/low-code definition layer that enables an ecosystem of tools—like real-time, device-accurate previews and screenshot generation—that can improve eCOA implementation and deployment," explained Andrew McVeigh, Suvoda's Chief Architect. 

Suvoda eCOA is part of a comprehensive suite of clinical trial solutions, including IRT (Interactive Response Technology), eConsent, and the recently launched ePatient. Unified on the purpose-built Suvoda technology platform, these products support clinical trial sponsors in the most urgent moments of their studies, enabling them to enhance operational efficiency, reduce site-burden, transform patients' trial journeys, and help advance human health.
