Dismantling Data Silos to Improve Study Startup and Mitigate Risk, New Webinar Hosted by Xtalks

TORONTO, May 8, 2018 (Newswire.com) - While technology remains critical as emphasis shifts to process optimization, it may be only part of the solution. Point solutions can hinder the flow of data across the continuum, causing already entrenched silos to dig in further. To improve performance quality in study startup, two factors are needed: an end-to-end solution and support from top management.

Unfortunately, entrenched silos such as site identification, clinical development, data management, contracting and regulatory affairs have long stymied these data flow efforts because they often have minimal understanding of what is needed downstream.

In this live webinar on Tuesday, May 22, 2018, at 1 p.m. EDT, featured speakers Eldin Rammell, managing director and principal consultant at Rammell Consulting Limited, and Elvin Thalund, senior director of product strategy at goBalto, will explore:

• How automated workflows encourage upfront planning and downstream improvements in the eTMF
  ​
• Why an upfront emphasis on quality in study startup is essential, including what factors to consider in order to mitigate risk (e.g., Which countries will be used? Which sites/investigators will be used? Which artifacts need to be identified and structured? etc.)
   
• How the International Conference on Harmonization ICH-GCP E6(R2) guideline defines Quality Management and builds on the foundation of regulatory documents released by the EMA and FDA
   
• Why breaking down organizational silos is critical to reducing quality issues
   
• Why management direction is critical in efforts to jump-start overall performance optimization

This webinar is applicable to:

• Sponsor and CRO roles responsible for site identification, feasibility assessment, selection and activation
   
• Sponsor and CRO roles responsible for collecting and evaluating trial metrics
