Release 5.0

Version 5.0 releases two big features: participant transitions and dosing actuals.

Participant Transitions

Participant Transitions are a way to describe a change in a participant’s treatment arm and status in a study using a new setting under the Cohorts tab. At a given day in the dosing schedule, you can specify a transition rule. Participants in one of the “From” treatment arms will transition to another treatment arm or drop out based on the ratios in the “To” column.

In this example, at Day 40, every participant in Treatment Arm 1 will either drop out or transition to Treatment Arm 2.

Dosing Actuals

Get specific on the actuals you’re bringing in.

You can now bring in dosing actuals for given participants under the “Participant Actuals” configuration screen. Within a scenario, you can toggle on dosing actuals. Once enabled, only actuals will be used before the reconciliation date, and Bluefin will resume forecasting afterwards.

Viewing all participant actuals in the system.

Improvements

Other improvements include:

• Improving Cohorts layout
• Updated / simplified a few warning messages
• Some pages with disclosures will now automatically collapse when another is opened, to decrease overall burden.
