Going paperless: Overcoming the challenges and reaping benefits of implementing digital solutions in oncology trials

  • Pre-implementation data and workflow challenges – A look at the inefficiencies and pain points in paper-based workflows and the impact on data management
  • Navigating the implementation process – Key steps, challenges, and site engagement strategies for successfully transitioning to fully digital workflows
  • Post-implementation impact: A transformative shift – How real-time oversight has reshaped workflows, improved data accuracy, and enhanced site operation

From setback to success: The art of clinical trial rescue

In the complex world of clinical research, even meticulously planned trials can face unexpected hurdles that threaten to derail progress and encounter obstacles beyond the capabilities of a small-scale Clinical Research Organization (CRO). When studies falter, a well-executed rescue strategy with an experienced global CRO becomes crucial. Drawing from Parexel’s extensive rescue-trial experience, this presentation unveils the blueprint for successful clinical trial transitions, focusing on four key phases:

  • Strategic Initiation & Planning – establishing a robust framework and standardized processes
  • Comprehensive Preparation & Due Diligence – ensuring stakeholder alignment on transition plans and timelines  – Conducting thorough documentation review and gap analysis
  • Adaptive Execution & Transfer – How to operationalize a study transfer – Anticipating challenges and employing agile governance for real-time course corrections
  • Effective Closure & Delivery – defining clear transition thresholds and success metrics  – Ensuring continuity and maintaining data integrity throughout the process

 

PROBLEM-SOLVING ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSIONS

During the roundtable discussion session, the conference hall will be divided into zones. Delegates can choose which zone they would like to join. Each zone will be led by a table moderator and will focus on a different challenge within the running of an oncology trial in the US.

ROUNDTABLE 1: Weighing up the pros and cons of different trial designs to enhance your clinical study
ROUNDTABLE 2: Optimizing site budgets and minimizing cost through clinical study strategies
ROUNDTABLE 3: Breaking down distrust of AI to effectively implement new technology in your company

ROUNDTABLE 4: Optimizing Imaging for Oncology Trials

ROUNDTABLE 5: Analyzing opportunities to include decentralized and hybrid elements in your clinical trial
