Virginia Chapter: Navigating Clinical Trials - A Review of Investigator-Initiated and Sponsored Models
Event Description:
While many clinical trials are initiated by industry sponsors, such as pharmaceutical companies or contract research organizations (CROs), other trials originate within a research site. When an investigator has an idea for a study they’d like to conduct, they may begin what is known as an investigator-initiated trial, or IIT. This event aims to provide a basic understanding of IITs and how they fit into the clinical research landscape.
