Since 2017, the FDA’s Oncology Center of Excellence (OCE) has created more than 300 research and educational outreach projects and programs focused on advancing the design, analysis, and regulations surrounding oncology drug development. As development continues to rapidly evolve, these projects and programs are intended to promote more effective and safer products, more accessible and efficient trials, and better patient outcomes.
These emerging programs will likely impact your drug development efforts, potentially requiring lengthened timelines, greater enrollment, and increased costs. In this webinar, Worldwide Clinical Trials’ clinical research methodology and oncology strategy experts will present the OCE’s most imperative initiatives. You’ll walk away with an understanding of multiple evolving projects at the OCE and how they impact your oncology program.
Key topics:
- The FDA Oncology Center of Excellence special projects and programs
- A focus on new dose optimization requirements through Project Optimus from a medical, scientific, and operational perspective
- Growing requirements for diversity, equity, and inclusion among oncology clinical research
- Innovative trial designs, methods of analysis, and operational strategies to fulfill regulatory requirements
