Increasing Site & Patient Convenience For Oncology Clinical Trials

By Dave Espenshade, Vice President of CRO Partnerships

These are just the barriers leading up to trial participation. Once a patient is enrolled, there are many obstacles that can impact patient retention in a study.

Let’s discuss some of the obstacles facing oncology research today and highlight innovation opportunities to transform the way sites, sponsors, and CROs interact.
