Unique Sourcing Solutions to Optimize Time and Budget in Clinical Trials

The challenge of running successful global trials is highly demanding and has become increasingly costly. Sourcing commercially available medications for these trials can be both complex and resource-intensive. Therefore, it is essential to set up and implement the best comparator sourcing strategy right from the start.

The balancing act of clinical supply management can be very daunting; how do sponsors ensure that there is enough drug to meet patient demand while minimizing costs? How do sponsors ensure timelines are never missed while preparing for the unanticipated?

This webinar will introduce innovative sourcing strategies for commercially available medications while assessing the pros and cons of the different options. The speaker will provide insight into key considerations when choosing the appropriate sourcing option(s) and discuss the value of migrating from a transactional approach to strategic sourcing.

The featured speaker will address sponsors’ common concerns when establishing a global clinical trial supply strategy, and provide solutions to challenges that sponsors have faced related to clinical supplies, including:

• The cost of wasted material
• Medication shortages
• Escalating prices of comparators
• Increasing complexity of clinical trial designs
• Managing short expiry dates
• Patient recruitment

Join this webinar to find out more about overcoming these challenges and learn how making the right strategic sourcing choice(s) can have a positive impact on clinical trials as well as the budget.
