Oncology Trials in 2009: Challenges & Innovative Approaches

One of the greatest risks for oncology trials today is the delay in clinical development timelines. The main reason for the timeline delay is patient recruitment. Due to the increase in the number of ongoing clinical trials in recent years, and subsequently decreased enrollment in the developed countries, innovative approaches are necessary to mitigate the risk of delay.

To meet clinical development timelines, proactive planning and comprehensive data analysis are necessary to mitigate the risk. Detailed planning and appropriate site and country selection are the most critical factors in meeting target patient accrual goals. This audio conference provides practical guidelines and innovative ideas which are useful when conducting oncology trials in the current environment.

Oncology Trials in 2009: Challenges & Innovative Approaches is being presented by Dr. Ute Berger, Vice President & Head of Medical Affairs - Europe, Africa & Asia-Pacific, with PRA International and airs on Tuesday, July 28, 2009.
