Innovation in clinical trials is an ongoing goal with a desired outcome of improving efficiency when investigating new therapies while maintaining the necessary scientific rigor for acceptance in clinical use as well as regulatory approval. Three general areas of innovation are the use of Master Protocols, seamless trial designs, and trials borrowing information from external sources. This session will include one session discussing the use of Master Protocols to obtain trial efficiency, a second session discussing recent design innovations to facilitate efficient learning through seamless phase 2/3 and enrichment designs and the third will discuss the strategy of borrowing information while also presenting design considerations such relevance/comparability of external information and appropriate statistical methods. The session will conclude with audience questions and discussion.
Learning Objective : - Identify the need for improvements in innovation in trial design and conduct
- Summarize in what manner Master Protocols improve efficiency in trial conduct
- Recognize the potential for efficient learning through use of seamless phase 2/3 or enrichment designs
- Evaluate the appropriate use of borrowed information and necessary statistical methods
