Our October issue focused on the current state of outsourcing with additional coverage around site networks and risk-based quality management.
This October, Applied Clinical Trials focused on the topic of new-age outsourcing. Led by the rise of integrated research organizations (IROs), providers are finding new and innovative ways to design their trials. In the case of IROs, this new approach enhances diversity and access by bringing clinical trials directly to patient communities, as opposed to more traditional research sites.
On the business side of outsourcing, partnering with a functional service provider (FSP) is becoming critical. These providers are now supporting sponsors through oversight and leveraging business operations data, giving those who partner with them a clear edge in trial execution.
In addition to the current outsourcing landscape, ACT’s October issue also provided key insights on site networks and risk-based quality management (RBQM).
With November on the horizon, the following slideshow provides a look back at the previously mentioned topics we covered in October.
