Automating study start-up enables faster site activation, better collaboration with study partners, and more informed decision-making. That’s why sponsors and contract research organizations (CROs) are turning to technology specifically designed to manage the intricacies of study start-up.

Every successful clinical trial must protect patients while collecting complete, accurate data that supports evaluation of the safety and effectiveness of the drug or device. Here’s a closer look at why data and safety managers are so important to a clinical trial, what can go wrong when they aren’t aligned and how to improve collaboration between them.

In the wake of COVID-19, clinical research sites are in dire need of extra resources to help run their clinical trials. By utilizing qualified, experienced WCG Clinical Research Coordinators (CRCs), these professionals can help overburdened study teams get tasks done, and get them done with efficiency and precision.

Find out how traditional trial modalities have evolved to participant-centric virtual platforms and how to best engage your IRB in this Advarra-Science 37 collaboration.

With new technology and groundbreaking medical devices being introduced every week, there’s never been a more exciting time to be involved in clinical research. Even during the coronavirus pandemic, the pace of innovation has only accelerated. 

While the FDA has issued guidance to help sponsors, investigators and IRBs decide on the best ways to protect patients while keeping their trial moving, the decision is ultimately up to each individual research team. IMARC has assisted research teams with remote monitoring, auditing and other activities for years. More recently, our team helped one company transition to an entirely remote clinical trial. We wanted to share this example to show it can be done, under certain circumstances and with careful consideration.
