How challenging is it to improve predictability when selecting clinical sites?

How often are there delays in site start-up that could have been avoided? 

How difficult is it to maximise an individual site’s performance compared to the original feasibility study?

How important would it be for you tonetwork with and share perspectives from all stakeholders involved in site performance:  Pharma, CRO’s, SMO’s and representatives from individual clinical sites? 

If these issues are important to you, then it would be beneficial for you and your colleagues to attend this unique conference looking specifically at bestpractice at theindividual site level, the front-end of clinical operations.

At this timely conference and networking meeting you can:

• Hear fresh perspectives on improving the efficiency of clinical operations at the very front-end; understanding the relationships with sites and their crucial relationships with patients.
• Understand the perspectives of, not only senior clinical operations directors, but also clinical managers who manage the day to day relationships with the site. Also, crucially, views from CROs and the sites themselves; principal investigators and experienced study nurses.
• Participate in your choice of either hands-on or more technical pre-conference interactive workshops: metrics to improve clinical site performance, or innovative patient recruitment techniques from the perspective of respected clinical sites.
• Join relaxed, informal partnering sessions to meet unique and niche, clinical solution providers who can help you maximize your relationships with the clinical site and help speed up your clinical trials.
• Attend an exclusive and complimentary networking dinner between all key stakeholders. Stronger relationships will be built upon a better understanding of the challenges faced by each group, who are all vital to the success of a study.
