Health Decisions CEO to Explore the Role of Clinical Operations in Adaptive Research at Adaptive Designs Summit, April29


(NewDesignWorld Press Release Center) -- Durham, NC, April 26, 2010 -- Michael Rosenberg, founder and CEO of full-service clinical research organization (CRO) Health Decisions (www.HealthDec.com), will explore the implications of a fully adaptive clinical program "one which applies adaptive principles to both design and operations”at Adaptive Designs for Clinical Drug Development, to be held April 28-30 in Philadelphia, PA.

The Summit will focus solely on adaptive clinical development, providing an opportunity for FDA members and research experts to determine the impact of the recently released FDA guidelines on the topic. Dr. Rosenberg will address the Summit April 29 with a presentation titled "Bigger Picture Adaptive: Improving Success Through Advanced Operations. " The session will cover the following topics: Realizing the benefits of a fully adaptive clinical program (one which utilizes adaptive methodology to improve both design and operations) Overcoming the four major clinical bottlenecks: enrollment, query management, monitoring costs and database lock Assessing the technology systems required to implement fully adaptive programs Reducing risk, cost and timelines: how adaptive methods effect net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR) and the healthcare crisis.

According to Dr. Rosenberg, applying the adaptive thought process to clinical operations presents an immediately actionable, universally beneficial solution with potential to drastically improve standards of efficiency in drug development. "Adaptive operations dramatically boost the timeliness and reliability of adaptive design components, but they also offer stand-alone value," he said. "They can improve success for clinical trials of all sizes, scopes and therapeutic areas, and are an ideal way for the industry to familiarize itself with the benefits of adaptive methodology while becoming accustomed to the growing acceptance of design-specific adaptive techniques." "Bigger Picture Adaptive: Improving Success Through Advanced Operations" takes place Thursday, April 29 at 11:15 a.m. EDT at The Ritz Carlton Philadelphia in Philadelphia, PA.
