Driving Standardization in Clinical Trial Design and Build:
UCB’s Metadata Automation Journey
About this webinar
Standardization is an integral step in improving the clinical trial design and build process. In addition, organizations are looking to leverage technology solutions to effectively manage and automate metadata processes. But what are the driving factors, challenges and important considerations for those looking to modernize their approach to clinical trial design and build?
In this webinar, Formedix explores these considerations and discusses the role of metadata standardization in end-to-end trial design. Alongside the vendor perspective, participants will hear real-world insights from global biopharmaceutical company UCB. Panelists will share their experience and ongoing journey to achieve standardization – in particular, the role of technology in achieving metadata automation. Participants will benefit from UCB’s first-hand experience, including effective strategies, avoiding the pitfalls and best practices for driving standardization through a clinical metadata repository (MDR).
Register for this webinar to learn about:
- The business case for change – time to modernize legacy systems and processes to drive operational improvements
- Change management – the automated study concept
