SC1: Implementing Social Media, Digital Marketing and Other New Strategies for Patient Recruitment
Matt Miller, Vice President, Global Patient Recruitment & Feasibility, StudyKIK
Nariman Nasser, Digital Strategist, Genentech
Jerome Chiaro, Vice President, Clinical Operations, StudyKIK
With the constant evolution of technology and strategies developed within the marketing sector, properly applying these strategies and tools to the clinical trial patient recruitment industry is of the highest importance. Research has proven that
the use of mobile technology and advanced analytics applied to clinical trial patient recruitment has propelled study timelines and decreased resources allocated to drug development. In this workshop we will take a detailed look at different age
groups and demographics in correlation with disease states and where these patients in today’s society are researching, findings, and consenting for clinical trials. We will explore some of today’s most efficient forms of patient recruitment
and demonstrate step by step processes to implement first hand to improve enrollment timelines.
SC3: Views and Conversations on Risk-Based Monitoring
Andy Lawton, Global Head, Data Management, Biometrics & Data Management, Boehringer Ingelheim Ltd.
Mireille Zerola, Clinical Data Management Expert, Boehringer Ingelheim Ltd.
Mary Mills, President, CRA Consultant, Mary Mills, LLC
Ellen Kelso, Executive Director, Chesapeake IRB
This session gives insights into not only the processes surrounding RBM, but also the individual and group responses of those involved. Whether you are considering implementing RBM or if you are an experienced practitioner, this session will have
something for everyone.
SC4: Developing Your Custom Strategy for Requests for Proposals (RFPs) through to Final Contract
Kenneth Wilson, Director, Business Operations; Clinical Outsourcing Lead, Pfizer
Charlotte French, Senior Director, Global Head, Contracting & Outsourcing, EMD Serono
In this workshop we will examine various strategies for implementing RFP processes at your company that are appropriate to your type and volume of work. Different companies have different needs, and there is no one size fits all. This workshop will
help participants understand industry trends and how people currently conduct RFPs and then convert the selected proposals into start-up work orders and ultimately, final contracts. We will discuss various formats for RFPs, from the minimalist
in specifications approach, down to the highly detailed approach. We will also discuss various approaches to putting start-up work orders in place as not to impede the progress of project start-up. Last, but not least, we will dissect various
approaches to finalizing the full work order during the start-up phase of the project.
