A staggering 72% of clinical trials fail to meet enrolment goals, often due to inconvenient trial logistics for patients. Direct-to-patient (DTP) clinical trial supply offers a promising solution, bringing medications and trial materials directly to patients' but challenges remain.

This interactive workshop explores how AI can be harnessed to overcome these hurdles and empower a smoother, more patient-centred DTP experience.

Core Focus Areas:

• Defining the Landscape: We'll establish a clear understanding of AI and its role in DTP supply chains, ensuring everyone is on the same page.
• Conquering Challenges: Explore how AI can tackle common roadblocks, including improving supply chain visibility, navigating regulatory complexities, and determining the best model – fully DTP or a hybrid approach.
• Temperature Control with Precision: Discover AI-powered solutions for maintaining optimal temperature control throughout the DTP journey, safeguarding the integrity of sensitive medications.
• Empowering Health Equity: Learn how AI can be leveraged to remove barriers and ensure diverse patient populations have equitable access to DTP clinical trials.

NEW PERSPECTIVES ON LEVERAGING OPERATIONAL & TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION TO BOLSTER SUPPLY CHAIN EFFICIENCY, MITIGATE DISRUPTION & ENSURE SUCCESS

The sheer number of disruptive events confronting the supply chain is dizzying. Mitigating the impact of these whilst also planning in an environment laced with future uncertainty remains a huge challenge.

In this extended keynote opening panel, we ask clinical trial supply chain leaders to deliver their perspective on how the operational landscape has evolved over the past 12 months and its associated impact on best practices.

 Core focus areas to include:

•  Preparing For The Unexpected: In what ways can we improve our capacity to anticipate and mitigate disruptive events? How are technological innovations supporting this?
• Doing A Practical & Tactical Risk Assessment: This has now become essential. So we investigate what the industry best practices are for accomplishing thi
• Improving Decision-Making: Breaking down silos whilst also ensuring the data on which we make our decisions is as complete and accurate as possible is critical. How can you move to a pro-active decision-making framework that allows you to make the right decision at the right time?
• Building Operational Agility: With so many short-term shocks impacting the supply chain, what does a long-term strategy for building operational agility look like in practice?
