How Smarter Clinical Trial Study Design Decisions Set Studies Up for Faster Startup and Fewer Amendments
Clinical trial study design forms the foundation of trial success. The decisions teams make at the design stage shape how

What Are the Different Types of Study Designs?
Traditional clinical trial designs often delay progress due to rigid protocols and frequent amendments. Adaptive and platform trial models introduce flexibility and shared infrastructure, reducing startup delays, cutting costs, and enabling sponsors to conduct faster, more efficient research.
Rethinking Oncology Trial Design: Turning Insights from Data and Experience into More Feasible Studies
Oncology research continues to push scientific boundaries, from biomarker-driven therapies to increasingly personalized treatment strategies. Operationally, however, many oncology trials
Integrating AI to Balance Scientific Rigor and Real-World Feasibility in Clinical Trial Study Design
Traditional clinical trial designs often delay progress due to rigid protocols and frequent amendments. Adaptive and platform trial models introduce flexibility and shared infrastructure, reducing startup delays, cutting costs, and enabling sponsors to conduct faster, more efficient research.
How Sponsors Can Use Adaptive and Platform Trial Models to Reduce Amendments and Accelerate Study Start-Up
Traditional clinical trial designs often delay progress due to rigid protocols and frequent amendments. Adaptive and platform trial models introduce flexibility and shared infrastructure, reducing startup delays, cutting costs, and enabling sponsors to conduct faster, more efficient research.
Patient Engagement and the IRB
Recent years have seen increased efforts to engage with patient and participant communities and include them more closely in research. This approach is reflected in the founding of the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) as well as statements from the US Institute of Medicine and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on the importance of including participant perspectives at every stage of the research process—from the design of studies through their implementation and the dissemination of research results.
