Clinical Trials Solutions: Build vs Buy

In today's ACT Brief, we examine what patient-site relationships need beyond easier technology, how to build defensible rare disease evidence from scratch, and how real-world data and AI improve enrollment screening accuracy.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine why defensible trial data depends on traceability and platform ownership, what CGT site readiness requires as therapy moves to community care, and why data harmonization is AI's primary bottleneck.

In this episode of Beyond Compliance, Otis Johnson, PhD, MPA, founder and principal consultant at Vantix Operations, speaks with Cecilia Xi, PhD, VP of clinical and scientific affairs at Vivalink, about why defensible trial data depends on traceability, platform ownership, and device strategy long after a study ends.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine understanding the patient journey from end to end, whether decentralization reduces site burden or just shifts it, and why nine European drugmakers are sounding urgent alarms.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine technology's real role in patient-site collaboration, why AI pilot failures stem from organization not innovation, and Novo's weight-loss drug results in competitive comparison.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine what patient-site relationships need most at DPHARM, how platform-based AI scales across workflows, and FDA's approval of a gene therapy for a rare childhood syndrome.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine what genuine patient voice requires beyond buzzwords, why AI's next bottleneck is system integration not models, and how regulators across three jurisdictions are formalizing patient input requirements.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine FDA's expedited pathway for first-in-human trials, why operating model design matters more than sourcing strategy, and how early readiness signals predict trial risk.
