German term or phrase: materielle Sache
"Durch das beschriebene System wird erreicht, dass sowohl das Anlegen and das Auswerten der fallspezifischen Daten wie auch die Verbindung zwischen den Daten und der *materiellen Sache* bzw. dem realen Vorgang genügend gesichert werden".
"Data" here refers to information about a clinical drug trial.
Am grateful for all suggestions.

actual trial (situation)/ actual (real) test
Explanation:
I am thinking of "actual thing" or "real thing" as in " the actual situation" in which the trial takes place, or the trial itself.

as in maybe

...actual/real situation (real circumstances) of the trial"
maybe also
..the real (actual) event


and then
"real (test/trial) procedure(s)" for real process.

neutral  Kim Metzger: Is this a "take" or a word-for-word translation? A "take" usually implies an understanding of the subject. That's what an explanation is for.
