Innovation through collaboration

Article: Modern clinical trials- apply a mix of co-innovation and best practices to improve productivity and drive ROI
During each stage in the development of any medication, productivity is a crucial yet elusive measure of success. In broad terms, R&D productivity in drug development can be defined simply as the relationship between the value that is created by the new medicine and the investments that are required to create and commercialize that medicine. 

This paper is the first in a multi-part series that examines the range of options that are available to improve productivity throughout each stage of the clinical trial process. This series will provide recommendations for how to identify, prioritize and implement specific strategies that have the best chance of yielding the most immediate, demonstrable results.

Case Study: Deploying Digital Health Innovations to reduce the high patient burden of a Type 2 diabetes Phase II study

Fortrea was approached to conduct a Phase II study and recruit 225 patients who have chronic kidney disease with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. The trial placed a high burden on patients with daily injections for 6-months and was placebo controlled. This posed challenges for patient recruitment, retention and adherence. Fortrea deployed several digital health innovation techniques to minimize patient burden, resulting in good adherence and low participant drop out.

A startup medical device manufacturer developed an innovative orthopedic device designed to provide full knee extension following total knee replacement surgery. The technology was simpler and more effective than existing alternatives, but there was a major problem: the manufacturer had no billing code. A Fortrea senior principal advisor assessed the current reimbursement landscape to determine what was needed to obtain the desired coding assignment of the knee aid device.
