of gathering data from key stakeholders, especially patients, has often been neglected. This workshop addresses the critical necessity of patient-centric approaches in clinical trials, highlighting that 87% of patient-centric trials yield positive results as indicated by a 2020 report from The Economist. Additionally, research from the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development reveals that amendments to Phase III protocols can extend trial timelines by three months, underscoring the need for efficient patient engagement strategies.
During the workshop, attendees will explore essential principles for successful patient engagement and insights gathering. Key topics will include determining asset viability in the current market, identifying risks and developing mitigation strategies, optimizing study design and execution, and aligning on effective study models. Participants will also learn about optimizing recruitment and retention strategies, crafting a successful value proposition, and preparing for successful commercialization. The session promises valuable insights into how patient-focused drug development can significantly drive efficiency and minimize delays in the commercialization process. The workshop will be led by Devra Densmore, Founder and Principal Consultant of Elevate Advocacy. Densmore brings over 20 years of experience in patient advocacy, having been involved in trial recruitment, FDA representation, and the establishment of advocacy functions in various biotech companies. Her firm specializes in providing strategic patient engagement and advocacy counsel, particularly with a focus on health equity. This workshop is ideal for professionals in Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR), Medical Affairs, Commercial, and R&D leadership roles who are keen to understand the value of patient insights in drug development and learn effective methods for engaging patients to collect these insights.
