Speaker(s): Mark Barnes
Duration: 90 Minutes
With every month, a larger number of industry, academic and government-funded clinical trials are initiated outside the U.S., often in developing economies of South America, Southeast Asia, India, Africa or the states of the former Soviet Union.
While expanding clinical trials to developing countries can help companies to open new markets and expand research, it can also pose problems for those companies without sufficient knowledge of the strategies needed to plan and sustain these studies.
In this 90-minute audio conference, Mark Barnes will address the common issues and risks that arise in clinical trials in the developing world, and most importantly, how to plan, manage and monitor for risks of all types.
