In this free webinar, learn how to accelerate clinical trials by addressing the challenges of sample collection and sample accuracy. Attendees will learn about translating a complex protocol to the simplest possible specimen collection kits for site convenience. Attendees will learn about designing streamlined kits to minimize site storage requirements. The featured speakers will discuss the optimal strategy for supplying materials in central lab kits vs. site-procured materials. The speakers will also share how to reduce waste from unused kits.
TORONTO, June 8, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Getting a drug to market used to be relatively simple and straightforward. That is not the case anymore. Clinical trials, from first-in-human to post-submission, face new challenges every day, including those related to clinical sample collection.
Most Phase II and Phase III studies have multiple endpoints and procedures per patient generating millions of data points from a single study, and with the exponential rise in technology and capability, these numbers are only going to go up. Not only is this more burdensome for patients and sites to recruit patients, but it also increases the complexity of the logistics and sample handling for trials since data associated with sample collection comprises the majority of data for any submission.
Investigator sites are collecting and handling more laboratory specimens than ever before in support of clinical trials. Laboratory procedures continue to increase in complexity because personalized medicine and customized drug development rely on robust biomarker and genetic data. Highly specialized assays require more customized specimens which often require added processing and more critical procedures for controlled handling. A greater number of biomarkers included in today's protocols also require more sample aliquots to be created and managed. Taken together, this higher complexity translates to more work for the sites and more opportunities for errors in sample collection, processing, packaging and shipping. One lost or non-viable sample can hamper the ability to enroll a subject in a clinical trial or include data from an enrolled subject in the regulatory submission.
In this 4-part series, attendees will gain new insights and learn best practices from technical and scientific experts on ways to accelerate clinical trials to meet objectives faster. This webinar will address concerns regarding the speed and efficiency of labs involved in complex studies and provide solutions to ensure that they are not getting bogged down. The experts will discuss methods for ensuring that labs are moving fast enough to meet the needs of the patients whose lives depend on them.
