North Texas Chapter: Ensuring Success Through Smarter Site Selection and Study Feasibility
Event Description:
In this course, the steps for site selection and study feasibility will be discussed. Sponsors will learn the most critical questions to ask an investigator and staff to ensure quality and timely data as well as appropriate enrollment. Sites will learn how they can be proactive in the selection process and how to ensure the study is feasible. The process of site feasibility and selection will be outlined with key decision points for both sponsors and sites. Sites and sponsors will also learn what tools can help sites become “preferred” and achieve excellence. Tips for improving documentation and communication will be demonstrated through tools and worksheets, leading to successful collaboration between the site and sponsor and avoiding some common pitfalls. With careful consideration of placement of a clinical trial, learners can find success at closeout, audit, or inspection. Part 2 will employ breakout sessions with hands-on activities to discuss issues the participants have had with site selection and study feasibility.
