Returning Results to Patients: Not Just a Regulatory Requirement with a Grace Period
Kimbra Edwards, PhD, Senior Director, Health Communication Services, Center for Information and Study on Clinical Research Participation (CISCRP)
EU Regulation/2014/536 requires results from trials initiated after January 2022 to be shared publicly within a year of completion and yet some sponsors are not sharing results. Several EU countries have successfully turned up the heat on sponsors who haven't shared the findings of their clinical trials actively pushing negligent sponsors and investigators to publicly share the results of past trials, an enforcement practice that's picked up momentum. After attending this presentation, the audience will: recognize the importance of returning trial results, in plain language, to all trial participants; describe the ramifications of not submitting plain language results; and plan for a large-scale implementation plan for returning results.
Navigating Global DCT Adoption: Driving Change through Collaboration
Craig Lipset, Founder, Advisor, Clinical Innovation Partners; Co-Chair, Decentralized Trials & Research Alliance (DTRA)
Global clinical trial teams are increasingly interested in using decentralized trial (DCT) methods. DCT technology and services providers have created a large variety of solutions for trial teams to use. However, there is no curated ‘source of truth’ accessible for providers or trial teams to understand which solutions can be used in which countries. The DTRA Regulatory Conduct Map initiative team has been focused on addressing this gap as part of its initial priorities to support the adoption of DCTs globally. In this session, initiative team members will share their approach to solving this challenge and how to use the deliverable they’ve created. Panelists will also share case studies on the application of this tool, and how it’s helping drive understanding and adoption of DCTs globally.

Capability Failure = Study Failure: How to Prevent Both
Clinical studies play a crucial role in advancing medical knowledge and improving patient care. However, failures attributed to competency gaps among clinical research staff have become a significant concern. Inadequate training and experience may lead to false positive and false negative study results, impacting both patient outcomes and research integrity. The session reflects on the implications of competency gaps in clinical research, emphasizing the need for comprehensive training programs to enhance staff skills, and ensure reliable study outcomes. Addressing these gaps is vital for maintaining the credibility and effectiveness of clinical trials.

Change Management: The People Component Can Make or Break Your RBQM Program
Keith Dorricott, Director, Dorricott Metrics & Process Improvement Ltd.
People, process, and technology all need to work together for an effective RBQM program. But the people component can be one of the most challenging - whether it is the culture change needed in moving to risk-based approaches or the specific knowledge and skills to implement and run RBQM processes across different study types and teams within an organization. What can be developed in-house? What should come in from outside your organization? How do you help your people think critically as described in ICH E8 R1? Our panel of RBQM practitioners will discuss the people component, the challenges, and the approaches they have used to overcome those challenges.
