Despite the benefits and opportunities that electronic clinical trials can offer, many organizations are finding it difficult to predict and capitalize on the benefits that can be realized by utilizing technology to manage trials. Your organization needs full participation by all departments – planning, operations and finance – to successfully manage Phase 2 and 3 trials on a global basis.

The current systems used by most organizations – individual spreadsheets and disconnected databases, cannot support the increased volume and complexity of these trials. In fact, they can significantly slow down the time to close-out and increase the risk of FDA rejection due to incomplete or non-compliant information.

Learn how a centralized, collaborative system can increase accuracy, reduce time and improve the overall clinical development process. In this seminar, you’ll get the latest perspectives on the following topics:

  • How to effectively manage and retain good investigators by providing easy-to-use tools to manage trials and by accurate and timely payment.
  • How to realize “Early Warning” signals of potential bottlenecks and barriers to trial progress.
  • Creating an integrated and collaborative work environment for clinical trial management designed to help streamline and automate the operations of clinical trials and enable better and faster reporting.
  • A review of changes to SOPs that can improve clinical operations when moving to an electronic environment.

  • Areas of potential savings available through a centralized, collaborative approach to trial management.

Who Should Attend?
Clinical Project Managers, Vice Presidents and Directors of Clinical Operations, Financial Managers who are responsible for clinical budgets, CIOs and IT Managers who support clinical operations.
