Breakout Session III

Breakout Session Options:

  • How Principal Investigators Can Maintain Oversight: Tips for Sites
  • Help, This Study is Complicated! Current & Future Needs of Sites
  • Site-Centricity & Relationships: The Importance of Site Needs

 


How Principal Investigators Can Maintain Oversight: Tips for Sites
It is now a requirement under ICH GCP E6 (R2) addendum for the Principal Investigator (PI) to demonstrate their oversight of a clinical trial. Sites need to be able to provide evidence that the PI is actively involved in the conduct of the trial and is assuming the required responsibilities. The delegation log is not a paper exercise – the PI needs to be able to support their actions if questioned. There has been considerable thought around the format that will be required in the case of an inspection. This session will provide opportunities for PI oversight tips and regulatory oversight ideas from providers themselves.

Help, This Study is Complicated! Current & Future Needs of Sites
Managing clinical trials, of whatever size and complexity, requires efficient trial management. Trials fail because tried and tested systems handed down through the years have not been documented, evaluated or published to guide new staff as programs grow and take on new challenging protocols. It is easy to say what your needs are in the moment when planning or conducting a study, but what about predicting future needs when it comes to complex trials? Top sites and CROs share current best practices that they are doing to manage complex protocols in this session.

Site-Centricity & Relationships: The Importance of Site Needs 
Over the past decade, we have put a strong focus on patients. However, we are seeing now that we need to give additional recognition to research sites and ensure site needs are met. In this session, we will discuss the definition of ‘site-centricity’ and how site relationships play a role in achieving a more site-centric model.
