Event Overview:

In the current drug development landscape, 85% of clinical trials experience delays, 11% of study costs are related to screen failures, and patient populations are often only 5% African American and 1% Latinx.

The time for change is now.

Patients can’t afford to wait any longer for life-saving treatments; trial operations need to be more predictable and streamlined; and therapies should work for everyone, everywhere.

To deliver true progress, the multiple challenges we face must be tackled together.
Join this webcast to hear clinical research innovators discuss how they’re increasing patient access and engagement, accelerating study startup and run speed, and improving the scalability of global clinical trials from different perspectives: technology, retail health, and biopharma.
