Running separate protocols for multiple investigational products and disease subpopulations slows development and duplicates infrastructure. There is growing interest in accelerating drug development by creating master protocol trial designs that simultaneously evaluate multiple investigational products and various disease subpopulations under a single overarching protocol and infrastructure, eliminating the need for individual trial protocols. This webinar will cover how master protocol trial design streamlines development, improves coordination and enhances operational efficiency.
Master protocols, also known as complex clinical trials, offer adaptive design flexibility. This allows researchers to modify the study by eliminating fewer promising treatments or advancing treatments that show better performance to different phases of the study. In this webinar, the featured speaker will explore the benefits and challenges of master protocols, as well as strategies for successful implementation and operationalization.
Register for this webinar to learn how master protocol trial design enhances efficiency, collaboration and decision-making in clinical research.
