Going from the lab to the clinic is the first huge leap in drug development. In this session, we will examine that process and explore how to ensure the jump over the “valley of death” avoids the sponsor falling into an abyss of bad decisions and poor results.
Learning Objective : Describe the panoply of decisions faced in the jump from the lab to the clinic including how those decisions can speed or derail drug development; Develop strategies to analyze unexpected challenges and minimize their impact on the drug development pathway; Explain how to maximize use of both internal and external resources to address the challenges faced in leaping from beaker to bedside.
