The Balancing Act: Innovation with Minimum Risk and Maximum Efficiency
Recent innovations in technology in the clinical research industry enable higher volumes of data collection at a faster pace. Researchers have new ways of gathering patient data with improved accuracy, clinical project teams gain the value of data-driven decisions and patients benefit from better treatment options.
To assess how clinical research industry professionals view the opportunities and risks of new innovations, Advanced Clinical conducted an industry survey throughout 2017 to learn about trends with the adoption of innovative practices – from applications of big data to use of wearable technology.
The report offers insights from more than 175 respondents and explores 3 major trends: data and study complexity, clinical and patient-centric impacts and change management and challenges.
Highlights include:
- High interest in big data but incorporation in study design is still premature
- Use of wearable technology—it’s started with more to come
- Most impactful innovation—cell-based immunotherapy
- Preferred change management method—best practice is still emerging
- Risk-based monitoring (RBM)—most respondents are using or plan to use soon
- The greatest threat to industry innovation—talent shortage
