Risk Management in early phase clinical trials - Practical implications 

Join us on March 5 at the Norwegian Embassy in Stockholm to hear how the changing regulatory changes are supporting innovation and helping companies such as yours to avoid pitfalls and negative results due to poorly planned studies.

Getting clinical products to market is not without challenges and overcoming obstacles in early clinical development requires scientific, regulatory, clinical, and statistical strategies at every stage.  


At this meeting, you will learn from our team of experts and clinicians who will simplify what you need to know to get your drug to proof of concept as quickly and efficiently as possible. You will learn about concepts of early-stage development, the regulatory framework including key changes and, how to identify and mitigate risks in early clinical trials.
