Webinar: Keynote Presentation: Engineering the Quantum Leap that Drug Development Needs
Webinar Abstract: What does a quantum leap in drug development look like and what is necessary to make it happen? Our greatest opportunity to deliver significant increases in the speed and effectiveness of drug development won’t come from the lab; it will happen from new, more efficient and equitable clinical trials. What we spend today to get 1 successful NME to market could have covered 90 drugs just 70 years ago, even after we adjust for inflation. R&D is getting more expensive, but less efficient. And looking at representation, 75% of the 32,000 participants in the trials of 53 novel drugs approved in 2020 by the FDA were white. The status quo must be changed to make clinical trials human centric. Only then can medicines serve our broad and diverse humanity.
