In this episode of the Applied Clinical Trials Podcast, Liz Beatty, co-founder and chief strategy officer, Inato, discusses a number of topics around site engagement including community-based sites, the role of technology in improving site/sponsor relationships, how increased operational costs are impacting the industry, and more.

Strategies for ensuring that innovation with PROs remains parallel with advancements in disease detection and progression.

In this episode, we meet with Micah Lieberman, Executive Conference Director for SCOPE Summit (Summit for Clinical Ops Executives) at Cambridge Innovation Institute. We will dive deep into the critical role of collaboration within the clinical research ecosystem. How do we bring together diverse stakeholders—sponsors, CROs, clinical trial tech innovators, suppliers, patients, sites, advocacy organizations, investors, and non-profits—to share best practices in trial design, program planning, innovation, and clinical operations? We’ll explore why it’s vital for thought leaders to step beyond their own organizations and learn from others, exchanging ideas that drive advancements in clinical research. Additionally, we’ll discuss the pivotal role of scientific conferences like SCOPE Summit in fostering these essential connections and collaborations, helping shape the future of clinical trials. Join us as we uncover how collective wisdom and cross-industry partnerships are transforming the landscape of clinical research.

Full results from the Phase III ASCENT-04/KEYNOTE-D19 study demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful survival benefits in patients with previously untreated, PD-L1-positive metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.

In the Phase III DESTINY-Breast09 trial, Enhertu (trastuzumab deruxtecan) and Perjeta (pertuzumab) significantly improved progression-free survival compared to the current standard of care in the first-line treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer, suggesting a potential new standard of care.
