In today’s competitive oncology landscape, researchers are under pressure to ensure their clinical trial designs are both innovative and efficient. It’s increasingly common for trials to incorporate multiple therapies and diseases. At the same time, oncology researchers often try to answer numerous complex hypotheses in one study.
Join this October 1 webinar to gain insights to drive faster and more efficient development in oncology. You’ll hear about complex innovative trial design approaches in oncology clinical development and maximizing the speed of molecule development. The next segment will explore challenges in designing a complex innovative clinical trial program from a statistical and regulatory perspective. Finally, you will learn about the application and value of biomarkers in adaptive oncology trial designs today and perspectives on the future.
This webinar is part of a scientific series Covance is offering focused on trends, opportunities and challenges associated with current and future applications in Oncology. Learn more and register for upcoming webinars on topics such as adoptive T-cell therapies, biomarker technologies for the detection of rare cancer driver mutations and novel targeted therapies, and more.
