Unlocking the Power of Research-Ready Data for Life Sciences

Site training effectiveness depends on readiness at first-patient-in, requiring learning-science design principles around performance focus, cognitive load reduction, progressive sequencing, and spaced retrieval practice rather than training completion metrics or content volume.

In this Q&A, Claire Riches, VP of clinical solutions at Citeline, discusses how AI is transforming endpoint selection and protocol pressure-testing, what data inputs matter most for realistic enrollment planning, and why the tools are more accessible than most sponsors assume.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine the FDA's multi-domain transparency priorities, why radiopharmaceutical trials need redesigned infrastructure, and how AI can make enrollment more predictable.

Radiopharmaceutical therapy is exposing a broader challenge for clinical development: scientific innovation can advance only as fast as the infrastructure, data, and cross-functional decisions required to deliver it.

A new FDA Voices post from the agency's acting chief of staff details completed milestones and upcoming priorities across complete response letter disclosure, application lifecycle transparency, new approach methodologies, labeling, and inspectional records.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine FDA input sought on early-phase ibogaine protocols, why mixed outsourcing models spread faster than oversight infrastructure, and a major partnership for a rare kidney disease treatment.

Mixed FSP and FSO models are gaining ground as sponsors seek agility and resource flexibility, but the oversight infrastructure, audit trails, and accountability structures needed to run them well and survive regulatory inspection are consistently lagging behind the model itself.

A new request for information asks for comments on dose selection, safety monitoring, eligibility criteria, and oversight approaches to support the responsible development of ibogaine drug products.
