An Era that Calls for a New Model for Conducting Clinical Trials?

Clinical trials have evolved from drug- to target-oriented trials, and this shift has raised several challenges.


TORONTO, Ontario (PRWEB)

Genomic sequencing techniques and bioinformatics have led us to a better understanding of cancer biology, resulting in a shift from empirical strategies to molecular (precision oncology) and immunological therapeutic approaches in clinical oncology. Consequently, clinical trials have evolved from drug- to target-oriented trials, and this shift has raised several challenges.

Register and participate to discover:

  • The importance of a new era of precision oncology, and what this means in practice for conducting clinical trials

  • The lessons learnt from the development of targeted therapies and immunotherapeutic agents in the past years

  • In what sense we say that the current methodology of oncology trials is based on molecular oncology

  • Why there is a need for a new “patient-centered” and target-oriented model of clinical trials

  • Does the new era of precision oncology call for a new model for conducting clinical trials, and what does this mean for sponsors, CROs and sites?

The main discussion will be followed by an open Q&A session.

Join experts Alain Thibault, Chairman, Simbec-Orion Oncology Advisory Board; Ahmad Awada, Founder of Oncodistinct Network; Nuria Kotecki, Executive Officer of Oncodistinct Network; and Philippe Cassier, Medical Oncologist, Centre Léon Bérard, for the live discussion on Wednesday, June 23, 2021 at 10am EDT (3pm BST/UK).
