Advances in genomic and proteomic technologies have led to the identification of numerous biomarkers with potential clinical utility in oncology, including gene mutations, gene amplifications, gene expression signatures, and altered proteins. To date, more than 1,500 potential oncology biomarkers have...
The success of clinical trials is contingent upon finding participants who meet certain criteria, ensuring that the resulting study data are meaningful and relevant to the target patient population. Clinical trial matching is the process of identifying and connecting potential...
Sponsors of emerging hematologic therapies – including gene transfer and gene editing, adoptive cellular, and antibody-drug conjugates – face a unique set of challenges in conducting early-phase, dose-finding studies. Key considerations for developing early-phase trials that can more accurately define...
Cell therapy clinical trials are complex and successfully operationalizing these studies requires careful consideration of the interplay between the patient journey and vein-to-vein logistics workflow.
Rare cancers account for 25-30 percent of all new cancer diagnoses and 25 percent of cancer deaths.1 With their poorly understood natural histories, phenotypic heterogeneity, and diverse clinical manifestations, rare cancers pose challenges to drug development and represent a significant...
Supporting the journey from breakthrough science to new medical treatments. Hematology and oncology drug development has been transformed by the evolution of precision medicine, emerging therapies, and immuno-oncology. From small dose-finding studies to large, multinational trials, Premier Research offers cross-functional,...
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is becoming an increasingly important part of the cancer treatment landscape, with a growing number of clinical trials investigating its use across a range of cancer types. To date, the FDA has approved six...
For those who have been through it, a rescue study transition from one contract research organization (CRO) to another can be a difficult ordeal, often accompanied by logistical hurdles and communication challenges.
