Transforming the Business of Clinical Trial Site contracting: The Progressive Model (part 2)

In an earlier post, I explored many of the challenges facing clinical trial enterprises and introduced three models for site contracting: Conservative, Progressive and Hybrid. The first post described the Conservative site contracting model, which is characterized by the highest level of sponsor control and involvement.

This post focuses on the other end of the site contracting spectrum: the Progressive Model. In this scenario—most commonly found among smaller pharma and biomedical companies—the clinical trial sponsor completely outsources the site contract management process.
