For a drug to be discovered and supplied in the market, it takes 10 to 15 years and costs over $2.6 billion on average. Out of 10,000 compounds that reach early research, only one secures regulatory approval. The life cycle of a drug from research to launch requires the expertise of hundreds of scientists, clinicians, statisticians, regulatory specialists, and extensive animal studies with human clinical trials. Any one error in the whole process can be expensive and time-consuming. A clinical development plan acts as the plan for the whole process, ensuring the proper workflow of the drug discovery. Clinical Development Plan: An Over…
Early in my career, I was helping coordinate a Phase II oncology trial across multiple time zones. One site, located in Eastern Europe, kept falling behind. The issue wasn’t patient recruitment. It was communication. The sponsor was based in California, the CRA was based in London, and the site team didn’t speak much English. Even simple updates took days. We lost time, strained relationships, and nearly missed key milestones. That experience stuck with me. And it taught me a lesson more sponsors are starting to…
Disaster-Resistant Cold Storage: The New Standard for Business Continuity Engineering for Continuity in Extreme Weather By: Oscar Infanzon, Design Engineer & Manager, Amerikooler For many businesses, cold storage protection is as critical as power or shelter during a natural disaster.
