Select all that apply — many trials span multiple TAs. The budget uses the highest-complexity multiplier.

2 Visit Schedule

How many visits, subjects, and how long is the study? Used to scale per-visit and monthly line items.

Including screen, treatment, and follow-up visits
Used to estimate total study budget
For recurring monthly line items

3 Procedures per Visit

Estimate how many procedures (labs, imaging, assessments) are performed on average at each visit.

Labs, ECG, vitals, imaging, assessments, etc.
💡 How this is used: Procedure count scales lab draws, ECGs, and specimen collections. TA-specific gold-standard assessments (e.g., EASI, DAS28, ADAS-Cog) are always included regardless of this number — they're protocol-mandated for your therapeutic area.
