2:30 PM Overcoming Obstacles in Rare Kidney Disease Trials: From “One Patient, One Site” to a Collaborative Future

Time: 2:30 pm
day: Pre-Conference Workshop Day

Details:

Join this workshop to gain actionable insights to leverage innovative approaches in patient identification and clinical outcome tracking, contributing to more efficient, integrates and patient-centered healthcare ecosystem, leading to better experience and improved outcomes for individuals living with rare renal diseases.

This workshop will gather experts to discuss:

  • Exploring the economic and logistical burdens of the current clinical trial model, where a single patient may be the sole participant at a given research site
  • Discussing the development of new models like "Centers of Excellence" and the "spoke and hub model" to streamline patient recruitment and trial management
  • Examining how CROs can move beyond a large-scale approach and build a more intimate, site-specific model tailored to the unique challenges of rare kidney disease
  • Defining how pharmaceutical companies can actively support and fund these new models to reduce recruitment time, lower costs, and identify the most suitable patient populations
  • Identify actionable strategies for all stakeholders, from trial sponsors to investigators, to improve efficiency and accelerate the delivery of new therapies to patients
