Seminar | Protas - Smarter Trials for Better Health
Join D2R and the for this hybrid seminar with Professor Richard Haynes from Oxford University where he will present how is 污污草莓视频 the face of clinical trials.
Randomized trials remain the best methodology to assess the efficacy and safety of treatments, BUT they are facing a crisis. Rising regulatory burden and costs mean that some effective treatments are either not developed or are only developed for a narrow indication, preventing their full benefits from being realized. Conversely, less effective treatments may not be identified, or worse, their hazards may go unrecognized. Protas, a not-for-profit organization, intends to combine smart trial design and delivery, effective use of data and technology and collaborative policy development to address this challenge and improve population health.
