Patient burden in clinical trials is a growing area of concern for patients, their families, physicians, and the research community. During our webinar, we heard from a principal investigator and a patient on how current practices in clinical trials and biospecimen management magnify patient burden.
Topics include:
A real patient’s unique journey so far and what it means to participate in a clinical trial
Perspective of a principal investigator on patient burden in clinical trials
Areas in modern clinical trials that place unnecessary demands on patients and the likely ethical implications of each
Ideas on ways to potentially improve the patient experience in clinical trials
