New white paper reports the five essentials for minimizing clinical development risk

February 19, 2010 By: NCTechNews Category: Clinical Research Organization

(Durham, N.C.) “If a drug works, there should be no reason for a clinical trial to fail,” declares a new white paper from Health Decisions (www.HealthDec.com), a full-service clinical research organization (CRO) specializing in high-efficiency adaptive solutions. This may seem like common sense, but many potentially valid drugs are denied FDA approval because of flawed clinical data that undermines the validity of overall efficacy and safety findings. Titled “What You Don’t Know Can Hurt You: Five Essentials for Minimizing Clinical Development Risk and Ensuring Your Greatest Chance of Success,” the report shows how untreated quality issues at even a single investigator site can negatively impact the results of an entire study. It identifies the elements that every trial should deem mandatory in order to avoid such unnecessary failure. The white paper is available as a free download from the company’s website at www.HealthDec.com/page/five-essentials.

 

 

“What you Don’t Know Can Hurt You” includes topics such as:

 

·         Why risk is at an all-time high in clinical development and the factors that make some trials more risk-prone than others

·         How to employ systematic risk mitigation for any trial, including the five essentials and why they’re so vital

·         Risk management tips for global and complex trials

·         The type of information you should be collecting beyond patient data, how to capture it, and what to do with it

 

“What you Don’t Know Can Hurt You: Five Essentials for Minimizing Clinical Development Risk and Ensuring Your Greatest Chance of Success,” is available for download at www.HealthDec.com/page/five-essentials.
