Measures that help improve clinical trial outcomes by increasing the likelihood of a clear, interpretable signal and avoiding unnecessary trial failure are therefore of great potential value.


TORONTO (PRWEB)

Clinical trials have a high failure rate, even for those compounds that have demonstrated efficacy in Phase 2 in the target population. CNS trials are associated with some of the highest failure rates and pose unique challenges. Clinical trials in CNS/neuroscience are complex and prone to producing uninterpretable or ambiguous results. This can have grave effects on the development of potentially effective treatments — leading to program delay or cancellation, as well as company failure. Measures that help improve clinical trial outcomes by increasing the likelihood of a clear, interpretable signal and avoiding unnecessary trial failure are therefore of great potential value.

Top reasons for trial failure are the inability to demonstrate efficacy as well as safety issues that arise during the trials. While protocols are carefully designed to enroll the appropriate subject pool, Syneos Health has found that about 10 percent of subjects considered appropriate by sites for trial inclusion, did not meet protocol criteria. The enrollment of unsuitable subjects has the potential to have a significant financial cost to sponsors as well as risk signal detection.

So how can an eligibility review enhance clinical trial outcomes?

Join experts from Syneos Health and Karuna Pharmaceuticals as they discuss their strategy implemented by Syneos Health CST (Clinical Surveillance and Training) to help sites identify suitable subjects, minimize noise, protect study investment and help obtain clearer results.

Join Dr. Stephen Brannan, MD, Chief Medical Officer, Karuna Therapeutics; Beth Eisenberg, PhD, Director, BU Ops (Scientific Director), Clinical Surveillance & Training (CST) Neurosciences, Syneos Health; Dr. Leslie Moldauer, MD, MBA, Vice President, Medical Director, Syneos Health; and Zelma Gandy-Don Sing, PhD, Lead Clinical Scientist, Syneos Health, for the live webinar on Monday, June 19, 2023, at 11am EDT (4pm BST/UK).
