Discover an informative webinar exploring innovative strategies to enhance obesity clinical trials and learn about practical approaches for maximizing patient retention and protecting endpoint integrity.
The global obesity epidemic continues to rise, presenting a serious public health challenge. Studies show that more than 1 billion people worldwide are classified as obese, with rates doubling among adults, and quadrupling among children and adolescents since 1990.1 The associated risks — such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and certain cancers — underscore the urgent need for effective intervention strategies.
Addressing obesity through the clinical trials of anti-obesity drugs requires innovative, patient-centered approaches. In this webinar, the speakers will provide insights improving obesity clinical trial outcomes, with a focus on strategies to maximize patient retention. Additionally, this webinar will highlight the importance of endpoint protection to ensure the integrity and reliability of the trial’s results.
Register for this webinar today to learn how maximizing patient retention and protecting endpoint integrity are making a significant impact on the success of obesity clinical trials.
