Data-Driven Protocol Feasibility to Improve Research Productivity

An estimated 20% to 50% of trial protocols launched at sites will eventually close without a single enrolled participant, wasting considerable resources along the way. While not mandated, feasibility reviews are being utilized by many organizations to minimize the risk of opening studies that ultimately will fail. Stage-gate process, a framework described in industrial organization management, can help identify projects early that are likely not to succeed and stop them before extensive resources are invested, freeing those resources to support other projects more likely to succeed. The feasibility process should include review of a diverse array of resources--financial, human, and physical--as well as the ability to accrue needed participants. This presentation will discuss the stage-gate framework, provide tips on processes that can be used to implement a feasibility process, and offer metrics and data organizations can use to drive the analysis empirically.
