These tools and models, from generative AI to digital protocols, allow for easy exchange of information and offer insights to assist in trial design. In some cases, they can even increase
the odds of a trial’s success. Monica Karpinski explores the potential of these novel approaches.

Data management
31 Bridging silos for smarter clinical trials
18
The clinical trials landscape is increasingly complex, with data playing a pivotal role. Data management, biostatistics, and data standards are essential pillars of this ecosystem, yet they often operate in silos. Adding external vendors further fragments the process, potentially leading to inefficiencies and compromised data integrity. To achieve transparency, efficiency, and robust data integrity, the industry must address these silos and foster seamless collaboration across all stakeholders. Phoebe Galbraith speaks to Mike Martin, principal, and Bazgha Qutab, principal, at ZS Associates.
