Patient advocacy groups have an important role to play in the clinical development of potential new treatments. They not only advise pharmaceutical developers on protocol design, site selection, and other key aspects of clinical development, but also educate patients and help them find appropriate studies that may be important options in their treatment journey. This forum features representatives from industry, advocacy, and patient groups sharing collaborative models that integrate patient needs into clinical operations.
Learning Objective : Identify areas of clinical development where patients can play an advisory role; Articulate concepts of collaboration between patients, advocacy, and industry.
