Challenges in Global Clinical Trials Conference
 
Challenges in Global Clinical Trials Conference

 


 

Dear Colleagues;

Whether you work for a small to mid-size biotech company or a large biotech or Pharma company, the challenging economic times have lead to a critical review of all clinical development programs. It has driven all companies to critically assess their core competencies and determine their necessity for outsourcing. Program priorities are being reviewed and decisions to delay or cancel studies are being made. We are challenged to be more creative in our study designs to reduce the number of studies or number of study patients while still providing robust data so we can be cost effective and make go/no go decisions earlier. Against this backdrop we need to find innovative ways to complete our studies faster…. not only small regional trials, but also large global pivotal trials.

The Challenges in Global Clinical Trials Conference to be held in Princeton, NJ on September 21-22, 2009 comes at an ideal time for Pharma and Biotech professionals to come together and discuss how to address the key challenges we face in the execution of clinical trials. Participants will have the opportunity to share their experience and knowledge and explore the range of hurdles and issues surrounding the many challenges we face in clinical drug development. They will also discuss the risks, problems and constraints the current economic environment has had on their clinical drug development programs and what it takes today to conduct clinical trials today by focusing on the following topics:
 

  • Clinical Trials and the New Environment

  • Designing Trials to Optimize Site Selection & Patient Recruitment

  • Essential Innovation for the Acceleration of Clinical Trials

  • Outsourcing Issues and Solutions for Clinical Trials

  • The Unique Needs of Pediatric Clinical Trials  

  • 2 Highly Specialized Roundtable Discussions

Delegates will have the opportunity to learn and network with the top global Pharma and Biotech industry leaders and attendees from all segments of clinical trials. We hope you will join your colleagues on Sept 21st at this unique forum.

Sincerely,
2009 Challenges in Global Clinical Trials Conference Organizing Committee
