Device Advertising and the First Amendment: Your Rights

Within recent years the effect of the First Amendment on FDA-controlled speech has drastically changed. Courts have stated standards for what FDA can do in controlling speech in advertisements. The difficult question is predicting the practical impact of these court decisions. FDA still has enormous authority to control speech and labeling. In this presentation we discuss the balance between FDA control of indications versus court restrictions on FDA control of speech.

Device Advertising and the First Amendment: Your Rights was presented by Robert J. Klepinski, with Fredrikson & Byron, and aired on 2007-08-23. For more details or to download this audio conference, please visit our site at www.fxconferences.com

Are you interested in faster clinical trials and improved data quality? For most sponsors and CROs, the answer would be an emphatic "Yes!". Managing a clinical trial effectively requires collaboration across multiple trial requirements. This presentation illustrates how IVR/IWR and lab data can be integrated and reconciled in real-time, improving the speed and overall quality of trial results. The presentation uses real-life case studies to demonstrate the trial efficiencies and benefits gained when combining labs and IVR/IWR data in real-time. The speaker also discusses technical considerations to enable an integrated data stream.

Adapting Patient Recruitment to Global Cultures

Patient recruitment is often mistakenly equated with advertising, when in actuality it is a considered collection of practices in response to a problem or a set of risks. The discipline is still new to many world regions outside of North America, presenting challenges both in acceptance and in practice among study professionals globally.

This audio conference focuses on overcoming those challenges in order to successfully conduct patient recruitment globally using the most appropriate, effective, and ethically acceptable tactics. In addition, it will also illustrate methods for culturally adapting patient recruitment practices - particularly creating patient communications (including advertising) - to resonate with target populations in each country.

Adapting Patient Recruitment to Global Cultures was presented by Rob Laurens & Matt Stumm, Leader, Creative Services & Senior Art Director, with BBK Healthcare and aired on 2008-01-23. For more details, or to download this conference, please visit our site at www.fxconferences.com
