New Consensus Recommendations Announced for Standardized Imaging Protocol
The Jumpstarting Brain Tumor Drug Development Coalition (JBTDDC) announced a new consensus protocol for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in brain tumor clinical trials to help assess if a new treatment is effective.
The Jumpstarting Brain Tumor Drug Development Coalition (JBTDDC) announced a new consensus protocol for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in brain tumor clinical trials to help assess if a new treatment is effective. A standardized protocol will encourage the brain tumor drug development by providing an accepted way to capture imaging information essential to the evaluation of future treatments
As is the case across all oncology clinical trials, Overall Survival (OS) is the “gold standard” measurement of investigational brain tumor therapies’ effectiveness. However, OS trials are lengthy and expensive. Therefore, the field of neuro-oncology has a long-standing interest in using alternative endpoints that use imaging to measure tumor progression and response to determine the relative value of an investigational treatment.
Unlock Commercial Growth through Data-Driven Patient and HCP Insights
May 2nd 2025Leveraging data-driven patient and healthcare provider (HCP) insights, including social drivers of health (SDOH), is essential for life sciences companies to continuously improve patient engagement and commercial success. Mark Rodgers, AVP of Commercial Analytics at Inovalon, discusses how identifying treatment milestones, assessing HCP performance, and segmenting patient populations using SDOH data can drive targeted strategies that improve healthcare outcomes and market access
