At the same time, plans were implemented to continue collection of data to achieve endpoints, safely enroll and follow participants in studies offering potential benefit, and quickly implement new COVID-19 clinical trials. These efforts were directed at the identification of the following areas that would require modification: minimization of direct patient care for routine study activities, logistics of research staff working from home, and study-specific protocol deviations, enrollment pauses, and remote site monitoring visits (Figure 3) . Sponsors were highly responsive, providing amendments to allow for study adjustments, including suspension of enrollment when appropriate for a specific study, protocol modifications to allow for remote follow up and designed for participant safety as well as to assure that data collection to achieve endpoints could be collected, and implementation of remote monitoring, etc.	./cache/cord-287607-d3k26aar.txt	./txt/cord-287607-d3k26aar.txt
