Data-informed clinical research: zooming in on external control arms ๐
Recent advancements in data science & technology have made way for a new virtual counterpart to the control group.
These โexternal control armsโ draw data from historical clinical trials or RWD sources like electronic health records.
They offer a solution for scenarios where recruiting a control arm is not feasible, for instance in the case of rare or life-threatening conditions with no or inadequate treatment options.
Research suggests external control arms can reduce sample size requirements by up to 20-50%, leading to significant cost-savings while also speeding up recruitment timelines.
In this article, we cover FDA guidance on externally controlled trials and 2 biopharma companies that successfully applied this approach.

Just in: research on key bottlenecks in clinical trial setup & conduct ๐๏ธ
Clinical trials are often delayed, making it hard for sponsors to budget & timeframe their clinical development.
The list of possible reasons for delays is long, but not all factors are equally impactful on timelines.
Researchers at Witten/Herdecke University therefore conducted a critical path analysis to identify the most prominent bottlenecks in clinical trials.
The researchers identified protocol development, IMP supply, site contracting, and patient recruitment as the most critical.
To avoid bottlenecks in these activities, sponsors should:
(1) plan with buffer time
(2) build governance frameworks
(3) adopt agile working models
(4) leverage novel technologies accelerating processes
(5) pay attention to improved communication & coordination

Moving beyond randomised controlled trials ๐
Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) are widely regarded as the โgold standardโ of clinical research.
Praised for their scientific rigour & statistical robustness, RCTs facilitate unbiased evaluation of treatment efficacy & safety.
RCTs are, however, not always feasible, especially when the target patient population is hard to come by.
With 30% of global drug development pipelines targeting rare diseases, the need for novel methods is pivotal.
One such method is the external control arm, a virtual alternative to the traditional concurrent control group.
In this article, we unpack the promise of this novel method, covering recent FDA guidance on externally controlled trials as well as two recent biopharma success stories.

Decoding data-informed protocol development ๐ค
The past decade has seen an upward trend in the scientific & executional complexity of clinical trial protocols, often leading to unexpected delays & unbudgeted costs.
To answer this issue, sponsors & CROs are increasingly looking at historical data to inform their study designs and thereby promote the predictability & cost-efficiency of their studies.
This trend has been driven by advancements in data analytics, predictive modelling, and #AI as well as the increasing availability of #RWD and historical clinical trial data.
In this article, we dive into the key benefits & implementation drivers of data-informed protocol development.
We discuss how historical data is successfully being used to make clinical trials more adaptable, cost-efficient, and patient-centric.

Novel trial designs have seen a dramatic uptake from just 7.5% of studies in 2010 to 17.0% in 2022.
Letโs dive into the 4 most common types:
โ๏ธ Umbrella trials: Test the effect of multiple therapies in a single disease. Patients with the same indication are segmented into subgroups based on their specific biomarkers or genetic profile.
๐๏ธ Basket trials: Test a single therapy across different disease types that share a common biomarker. Focus on a specific molecular target or pathway rather than disease.
๐ Master Protocols: Comprehensive frameworks that guide multiple clinical trials under a single, overarching design. Enable the simultaneous investigation of various interventions in different sub-studies.
โ๏ธ Adaptive Protocols: Flexible trial designs that permit modifications based on real-time data analysis. Changes might include adjustments to sample sizes, treatment regimens, or new patient groups.
