PANEL DISCUSSION: Strengthening Patient Recruitment in Oncology Clinical Trials
- Identifying and addressing key barriers that limit timely and representative recruitment.
- Improving collaboration between sites, sponsors and patient advocacy groups to expand referral pathways.
- Enhancing patient trust and understanding through clear, accessible communication strategies.
- Leveraging AI tools to support more accurate pre-screening, eligibility matching and outreach.
PANEL DISCUSSION Maximising Site Productivity: Infrastructure, Burden Reduction and Stronger Output in UK Clinical Trials
Robust, well supported site infrastructure is the foundation of efficient clinical trial delivery across the UK and Ireland. This session will examine how workforce, facilities, digital systems and governance structures at NHS and HSE sites can be optimised to reduce operational burden and increase throughput of high quality studies. Panellists will share practical strategies for investing in and partnering with sites to strengthen research infrastructure, streamline processes, and enable sustainable growth in commercial and academic trial activity.
- Assessing current site infrastructure: workforce, facilities, governance and digital capabilities in NHS/HSE settings.
- Targeted investments and partnerships that meaningfully strengthen site capacity and trial readiness.
- Aligning sponsor/CRO expectations and processes with real site infrastructure constraints.
- Building scalable, resilient site infrastructure that supports long term growth in UK & Irish clinical research.
