In the future, patients may no longer be required to physically visit clinical research centers during clinical trials. This could have huge benefits, not only for the sponsors in terms of cost and time, but also for the patients who take on additional commitments to participate in these trials - including their time. While traditionally this has not been possible, by leveraging high end technology such as mobile apps, wearable devices and clinical ecosystem, we have seen some progress. We have even seen the possibility of running virtual clinical trials by monitoring patient condition remotely. We are only scratching the surface today and there are still many challenges ahead, specifically around quality and regulations. In this presentation we want to show you what the future of clinical trials look like, including the benefits and challenges of future virtual trials.
