Why This Webinar

The rising costs of drug development have teams at every level of the process seeking new ways to streamline operations and cut expenses, especially in complex and competitive environments such as lung cancer. In this webinar we will share how Sanofi effectively planned for an upcoming lung cancer study while focusing on internal cost reduction goals.

In this webinar we showcase how Sanofi was able to identify a far greater pool of sites with a high recruitment potential by utilizing latest machine learning technologies and combining internal and external databases. An innovative approach to study planning resulted in cost savings through the reduced number of countries and sites, and greater efficiency across the trial.

 

Webinar agenda Includes:

  • How to accelerate data collection across 47 countries
  • How to increase access to new sites and gain faster access to more patients
  • How to develop an evidence-based recruitment scenario
  • Next steps to improve country and site selection
