Report Overview
It will come as a surprise to no one that site start up is a challenging part of the clinical trial process. Various pieces of research into this topic have put the length of site start up (site selection through activation) in the ballpark of 7 to 10 months. In the pharma world, with patent cliffs and competitor products looming, each day is valuable and every delay is costly.
For this research, we gathered verbatim insights into the practices that create site start up efficiency, the causes of inefficiency, and new practices being undertaken in an effort to improve efficiency. To get multiple perspectives on the site start up process, we surveyed people with site start up responsibilities at sponsors and CROs as well as people working at clinical sites, such as clinical investigators and study coordinators. We asked our respondents to provide thoughtful looks into the challenges and best practices they associate with seven different steps of the site start up process. This report shares actionable practices to improve site start up efficiency.
