CSR drafts in days, not months.

Asthra generates ICH E3–aligned CSR first drafts from your protocol, SAP, and TFL package — section by section, with sentence-level provenance. Writers stay in Word, focused on judgment instead of grunt work.

Inputs

What you bring to the draft.

Asthra works from the same source set your writers already use. Upload, classify, approve.

PDF

Trial Protocol

Including amendments. Asthra extracts study design, endpoints, populations, and randomization rules.

DOC

Statistical Analysis Plan

Analysis methods, populations, missing-data rules — used to write the methods and analyses sections.

XLS

TFL Package

Tables, figures, and listings. Indexed table-by-table; cells become sentence-level citations.

PDF

Investigator Brochure

Background and prior data — informs introduction and clinical context sections.

DOC

Prior CSRs

Optional. Used as style reference and for cross-trial consistency, not as a source for new claims.

DOC

Your CSR Template

Asthra writes into your house template — section numbering, headings, table-of-contents, and styles preserved.

Workflow

From source set
to submission-ready draft.

01

Upload & classify (~30 min)

Drop your protocol, SAP, and TFL package into the project. Asthra classifies each file, extracts structure, and surfaces any ambiguity for writer review.

02

Approve the retrieval plan (~15 min)

Asthra proposes a section-by-section plan: which file each part will draw from. Edit, swap sources, or exclude material out of scope. Approve once.

03

Generate the first draft (~3–6 hours)

Asthra drafts all 38 sections in a single run, with citations attached at the sentence level. Gap flags surface where source data is missing or contradictory.

04

Writer review in Word

Writers open the .docx, review with track changes, and chat with Asthra in the task pane to refine sections, swap sources, or fill gaps. Every refinement is logged.

05

Hand off to QC & medical review

Final draft ships with the audit ledger embedded. QC reviewers use the same citation graph to verify claims — no extra tooling required.

Manual vs. Asthra

  • Cross-section consistency depends on writer memory
  • Audit trail reconstructed from email and version history
