[Webinar] How Can Adaptive Designs and Master Protocols Enhance Your Oncology Trials?

September 28, 2020

While oncology trials comprise a large proportion of current research pipelines, conventional oncology development programs are  frequently expensive, inefficient, and plagued by high failure rates. In the early stage of a trial, decisions about dose selection and target indications are of paramount importance and incorporating innovative design strategies such as adaptive designs and master protocols lead to more efficient, cost-effective trials. This webinar contrasts the Continual Reassessment Method (CRM) with other dose escalation designs and demonstrates the advantages of basket trial designs for dose expansion studies.
