Their ability to do so is dependent on the level of comfort all involved have. Clinics and practitioners do not want to collaborate with manufacturers that do not give fair consideration to the individuals involved in trials. Patients would not want to participate if they are not comfortable that reasonable interest is given to their well-being.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the ways that the industry is enhancing personalization is by allowing participants flexibility with their mode of participation. Some patients go to clinics or hospitals for treatment, monitoring, and input. However, more are now participating from home, especially as a result of the pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The more customized and personalized you can make the process, the more attractive it is for ideal patients to participate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b><a id=\"Enhanced\"><\/a>Enhanced at-home data gathering<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trial facilitators have established more flexible processes to accommodate diverse methods of participation, including the provision of home monitoring equipment and virtual communications systems to support this approach.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The use of in-home technology allows for broader access to candidate pools, which enhances the precision of each participant\u2019s fit. It also means greater access to high-quality data. By optimizing candidate fit, the industry is able to gain better insight into how the drug serves the needs of intended candidates. More accurate data is also useful in satisfying FDA standards for the efficacy and safety of drugs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data is gathered directly from the physiological monitoring of patients, as well as from the input patients provide. Feedback gathered through a unified communications system is more easily organized, stored, and maintained for historical record.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ability to monitor and communicate with participants from their homes is also advantageous to many participating clinics. It allows facilitators to more efficiently and routinely interact with participants regarding their experiences with the drugs. More regular interactions leads to more consistent feedback throughout the trial. It gives facilitators broader insight into the drug\u2019s impact over the duration of a treatment cycle. It also helps with more precise pinpointing of the onset of any adverse reactions or negative side effects.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is also growing use of artificial intelligence in life sciences, including within data analysis. AI tools are able to mine data intuitively through machine learning and deep learning capabilities, to better understand the implications within holistic data sets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b><a id=\"Greater\"><\/a>Greater emphasis on participant privacy<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is a renewed emphasis on participant privacy in clinical trials in 2022. This focus aligns with similar privacy concerns in other public and private sectors. Securing private and confidential information is a key challenge to more use of digital methods of communication and data-gathering.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With more virtual participants, there are many times where data is gathered, stored, and shared across digital connections, including:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data gathering from monitoring devices<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data collected through live feedback from participants<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Communication and data sharing between clinics and trial facilitators<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other communication to manage the trial process among stakeholders<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Best-in-class digital communications solutions provide the tools to facilitate successful virtual trial participation and offer advanced security protocols like multi-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b><a id=\"Winning\"><\/a>Winning back trust<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This trend encompasses some of the intent behind other trends already discussed. An unfortunate result of the pandemic and related public health factors has been heightened general <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn1.sph.harvard.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/94\/2021\/05\/RWJF-Harvard-Report_FINAL-051321.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">distrust of the healthcare sector<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This distrust can spill into any related sector.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Therefore, drug manufacturers, participating clinics, and other channel partners have to work especially hard to earn trust in 2022. Personalizing the experience and taking other steps to demonstrate concern for patient welfare contributes. So does a clearly demonstrated commitment to participant privacy and security.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These steps, coupled with transparency and ongoing communication, will go a long way to winning over participants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-52461\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/life-sciences-table.png\" alt=\"Table 1.
