- Implementation challenges and how to overcome them
- Areas of future focus and opportunity
Moderator: Ken Getz, Executive Director, Research Professor (PHCM), Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development
TECH SPOTLIGHT: End‑of‑Study Management: Ensuring Seamless Trial Closeout with Minimal Operational Burden
- Full regulatory compliance supported by robust documentation and end‑to‑end traceability
- Complete transparency with no hidden or unexpected costs or fees
- Streamlined management designed to avoid any additional workload for study teams
From First-in-Human to Global Trials: How Emerging Biotechs and Biopharmas Can De-Risk Clinical Development
For emerging biotechs and biopharmas, the path from early-phase trials to global development is filled with operational and strategic risk. Increasing protocol complexity, fragmented vendor landscapes, and varying regulatory expectations add layers of uncertainty. In this talk, Adam Marsh will outline key inflection points where risk can be proactively mitigated, from study design through execution and scale-up. Attendees will leave with a clearer framework for reducing execution risk while enabling faster, more confident decision-making.
Simulate to Succeed: The Next Generation of Clinical Trials
Harnessing the convergence of high-fidelity data with advanced AI is now essential for de-risking clinical trials and accelerating therapies to patients. What if the distance between a draft protocol and a validated study execution plan was reduced to a single, unified simulation?
Join Medidata’s Rob Buka for a deep dive into the future of holistic trial design and planning. Learn how advanced modeling and simulation capabilities within a central workspace can revolutionize trial operations. This session will illustrate Medidata’s strategy for optimizing protocol design, predicting trial outcomes, and achieving greater clinical and operational success in the next generation of drug development.
