Event Overview:
The effect of the pandemic on clinical trials has been profound. We have seen leaders in the pharmaceutical industry deciding with speed over precision, adapting boldly, reliably delivering and engaging for impact, to support the management of this crisis.
COVID-19 has resulted in the compression of often decades-long digital transformation roadmaps, as well as, the adoption of new innovation strategies, such as decentralized clinical trials, to respond to the realities of shelter-in-place directives.
Stakeholders have been very vocal – there is no turning back – cumulating in the
But what is the anticipated impact of decentralized clinical trials on sponsors, CROs, investigative sites, and patients? Is the industry as a whole ready to make a switch to a more patient centric approach to running clinical trials? Or more importantly, will the industry embrace this change or revert back to its old ways post-COVID-19?
Key Learning Objectives:
In this webcast we will explore:
- Impact of COVID-19 on the adoption of decentralized clinical trials
- Perceived benefits of decentralized clinical trials from a sponsor, CRO and site perspective
- Expectation of when decentralized clinical trials will be available at scale coupled with the es-timated costs relative to traditional studies
- Challenges to the implementation of decentralized clinical trials and misalignment amongst stakeholders
