The complexity of initiating studies continues to grow, a confluence of complicated protocols, globalization, and regulatory changes, at a time when there is intense pressure to speed clinical trials and restrain costs. Key to reducing these complexities is the ability to be able to leverage operational insights with granular performance metrics and machine learning, which can guide clinical research staff in their daily activities.
Machine learning technologies can help predict outcomes in clinical trials, leading to faster drug approval times, lower costs, and more funding to develop new treatments. More accurate predictions can reduce the uncertainty in study execution by providing greater risk transparency and allowing informed data-driven decisions to be made in the risk assessment and portfolio management of investigational drugs in clinical trials.
How can machine learning deliver business intelligence before starting studies?
