CTTI describes keys to transforming clinical trials

CTTI Points to Stakeholder Engagement, Data-Driven Insights as Keys to Transforming Clinical Trials

An editorial appearing in the May 12th edition of Media Planet, a supplement of USA Today, describes the unique methods that CTTI pioneered, and continues to rely on, to transform clinical research.

In Improving Clinical Trials Through Thoughtful Collaboration, Annemarie Forrest, CTTI's Associate Director of Projects, makes the case that all voices must be included in the conversation if we are going to transform the U.S. clinical trials system. Key to CTTI's ongoing efforts is the combination of data-driven approaches with the active engagement of all stakeholders, including healthcare providers, regulators, academia, industry, and patients and their families. By fostering dialogue and learning among people who represent a diverse array of backgrounds, knowledge, and experience, CTTI works to enable novel insights about how to accelerate the development of new therapies for the patients and families who need them most.

The tools and recommendations that grow out of CTTI programs and initiatives offer workable, evidence-based solutions. From companies adopting CTTI recommendations to improve the design and conduct of clinical trials to major patient advocacy groups using our tools to streamline trials through their interactions with trial sponsors, CTTI is helping to lead the way toward a better, more efficient clinical trials enterprise.
