Phase II/III Market Outlook: 2020-2024

Report Overview

Welcome to ISR’s Phase II/III Study Trends and Market Outlook (2020-2024) report. The goal of this report is to provide readers with a high-level view of the Phase II/III clinical development space to illustrate current market dynamics and inform strategic planning. For this report, 146 Phase II/III decision-makers were surveyed to share their insights into where the Phase II/III market is now and what changes they expect over the next four years.

Finally, staying on top of trends such as use of risk-based monitoring, use of activity trackers, and how companies are responding to the COVID-19 pandemic helps readers stay current with market happenings and plan for what the market is expected to look like in 2024.
