Advancing RBQM Strategy for Greater Impact and Stronger Trials

  • Thursday, April 16, 2026 | 11am EDT (NA) / 4pm BST (UK) / 5pm CEST (EU-Central)
  • 60 min

Risk-based quality management (RBQM) has become a cornerstone of modern clinical trial execution, helping sponsors proactively manage risk to improve data integrity, patient safety and operational efficiency. Industry adoption continues to improve; data from the Association of Clinical Research Organizations (ACRO) shows that in 2024, 96% of trials incorporated at least one RBM or RBQM component. However, taking the next step requires implementation of a holistic RBQM strategy that relies on fully integrated, cross-functional approaches – and this remains variable across the industry.

This webinar will explore how sponsors can build sustainable RBQM frameworks that move beyond compliance toward measurable, long-term value. Attendees will learn the core elements of successful RBQM strategies, the expanding role and impact of central monitoring and real-world results from a central monitoring assessment case study. The session will also address common implementation challenges and practical approaches for strengthening RBQM through processes tailored to specific study needs.

Register to learn how a mature and intentional RBQM strategy can drive higher quality, more efficient clinical development programs.
