Below is a Modified Transcript.
Determined to reduce cost and time associated with clinical trials, a nonprofit dedicated to Alzheimer’s research sought out Pintail Solutions’ expertise to expedite a clinical trial study start up. Pintail Solutions deployed their best practices and extensive hands-on approach coupled with change management expertise to ensure quick study launch times without compromising quality.
In the discovery phase, Pintail Solutions identified several challenges that would hinder timely site activation and quickly implemented changes to put the study back on track.
When working with multiple parties for clinical trial site activation, processes can quickly become overcomplicated, creating a lack of clarity which can impede success. This is why our team partners with sponsors and CROs right from the start to determine roles and responsibilities, and to forge ahead towards an optimal vision for rapid study start-up. Establishing clear and transparent communication with all parties is key in achieving success.
Another challenge Pintail Solutions identified was that the trial study start-up processes were poorly defined and undocumented.
Pintail Solutions’ approach to clinical trial site activation is collaborative and supportive. We provide a personal service for each partner with an extensive Study Start-Up toolkit, so that the process can be defined and executed efficiently, without interruption.
We use custom designed process maps and best practice templates that help streamline site operations during this period, applying Lean Six Sigma principles to ensure improvements happen quickly. In the event of any challenges during set-up, we are prepared to partner with all involved parties to improve timelines and ensure project success.
