Clinical Development Strategy and Planning
A clinical development plan — a comprehensive strategy for developing an investigational product through regulatory submission — is a critical component of your drug development, helping ensure that your new therapy is safe, effective, and of high quality.
Strategies to Ensure Your Treatment’s Success
Our clinical development strategy and planning solutions encompass the intricate orchestration of scientific, clinical, regulatory, and business elements to ensure the success of new treatments. We help you navigate the ever-changing landscape of evolving clinical practices and market dynamics, aiming to achieve regulatory approval while anticipating reimbursement pathways and clinical integration. Adaptability is key, our strategies are designed to flexibly respond to accumulating data and shifts in the competitive and regulatory environments. Grounded in the Targeted Product Profile (TPP), our strategic framework balances scientific rigor with financial considerations, recognizing the nuanced trade-offs inherent in different phases of clinical development.
Contact UsEfficient resource allocation
Optimize resource allocation for your trials, reducing costs and accelerating development timelines.
Regulatory compliance
We ensure compliance with evolving regulatory standards and streamline approval processes.
Risk mitigation
Identify and mitigate risks early in development to enhance your trial success rates.
Strategic decision-making
Our framework helps facilitate informed decisions, aligning development efforts with commercialization goals for enhanced market success.
Clinical Development Plan
We work with you to create a clinical development plan that typically involves a multidisciplinary team of experts in clinical development, regulatory affairs, medical affairs, statistics, and other relevant areas.
A successful strategy includes the following components:
- Target Identification
- Preclinical Testing
- Biomarker Identification (as needed)
- Phase I Clinical Trial Design
- Phase II Clinical Trial Design
- Phase III Clinical Trial Design
- Data Analysis
- Regulatory Interactions
- Safety Monitoring
- Pediatric Study Plans
Rare Disease Development
In rare disease development, our solutions are designed to deliver the swift identification of efficacy signals or futility that is paramount to patient welfare. Bayesian interim monitoring in single-arm studies enables efficient decision-making, halting futile interventions and accelerating enrollment or next-phase preparation based on predictive probabilities. For randomized studies, Bayesian borrowing from external data reduces the sample size, optimizing patient allocation. We also offer other methods including robustified meta-analytic priors and power priors within the Bayesian framework to facilitate effective data utilization, ensuring rigorous yet expedited development pathways tailored to the unique challenges of rare diseases.
