COVID19: Ensuring Scientific Integrity of Clinical Trials During the Pandemic, Upcoming Webinar Hosted by Xtalks
TORONTO (PRWEB) May 14, 2020 -- The global COVID-19 outbreak is affecting ongoing clinical trials to an extent that has never been previously witnessed. The ramifications of the pandemic will be long-lasting and far-reaching in the world of clinical trials. Studies will be affected in a variety of ways, such as slow patient recruitment, anticipated increase in missing data and a rise in protocol violations due to subjects being unable or unwilling to attend planned trial visits. The root cause of these problems is largely not under a sponsor’s control, and as the pandemic continues, actions must be put in place to quantify the impact of this outbreak and plan mitigation strategies to ensure the continuation of clinical trials in a safe, responsible and statistically sound manner.
This webinar will present potential scenarios that sponsors may face, such as re-assessment of the study size, the trial’s ability to deliver the promised results and the validity of the key study estimand and planned approaches for handling missing data. It will discuss related issues and examine potential solutions to maintain study integrity and preserve scientific validity and regulatory compliance.
Join the statistical consultancy team at Quanticate in a live webinar on Friday, May 29, 2020 at 9am EDT (2pm BST/UK).
