Time: 11:00 AM-12:00 PM EST

Experts from CROs, patient advocacy, and the pharmaceutical industry will share insights on the role of decentralised clinical trials (DCTS) as a potential option to make clinical research more accessible to participants who may not otherwise be able to participate. The panel will discuss important topics, such as:

  • Stakeholder engagement and resources needed to determine if a DCT is an optimal option to improve trial accessibility
  • What capabilities are needed to successful execute a DCT through the lens of accessibility
