ATR Unlocked: Driving Quality Through a Risk-Based Management Lens

As the landscape of clinical research continues to evolve, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents unprecedented opportunities for transforming clinical data management. This presentation will explore how AI is being harnessed to revolutionize solutioning and accelerate clinical trials, focusing on three main areas:

  • Master Data Management: Implementing AI tools to enhance the efficiency, accuracy, and compliance of data handling, driving significant improvements in trial outcomes.
  • Transactional Workflows: Utilizing AI to streamline and optimize clinical trial processes.
  • Agentic Workflows: Leveraging a centralized AI platform to build robust solutions that automate and improve decision-making in clinical research.

What are the practical challenges, innovative solutions, and the potential return on investment (ROI) that AI brings to clinical data management, as we move from theory to therapy.
