Evidence suggests that many investigators are leaving clinical research due to burdens imposed by trial-related responsibilities—a trend that could hinder the quality and efficiency of clinical trials. CTTI is addressing these and other issues in a rollout of evidence-based investigator community recommendations.
At the Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS) Global Site Solutions Summit on Sat., Oct. 7, CTTI will present its new set of recommendations designed to support and strengthen the site investigator community through activities aimed at:
- Developing site-based research infrastructure and staff
- Optimizing trial execution and conduct
- Improving site budget and contract negotiations
- Identifying additional trial opportunities for interested investigators
These recommendations, which lay out practical strategies that can help all stakeholders contribute to building a more supportive and sustainable clinical trials enterprise, were developed through CTTI’s Investigator Community Project.
