- Introduction
Our Early Phase Battery is unique in presenting a broad test of cognitive functions which can be completed in 12 minutes. This means that it's possible to capture useful cognitive data within the constraints of a busy phase I study schedule.
Adding cognition as an outcome to early phase studies offers the possibility of highlighting efficacy signals without interfering with the safety and tolerability objectives of the study.
The Early Phase Battery is usually administered on small, lightweight Tablet PCs, meaning that the tests can be completed easily at the bedside if necessary.
Not only can the Early Phase Battery be completed quickly, but our data flow process means that you can review data cohort by cohort throughout a study. This means that cognitive data is available in time for dose escalation review if required, or can even be used as a trigger for a real time safety monitoring alert.

Our standard Early Phase Battery includes the following tasks:
- Groton Maze Learning Task (executive function)
- One Card Learning Task (working memory and learning)
- Detection Task (simple reaction time/psychomotor function)
- Identification Task (choice reaction time)
