Investigator Initiated Studies (IIS) are an integral and increasingly important part of the clinical research landscape with clear benefits for sponsors, investigators and patients, but it can be challenging to provide the level of service and support needed to effectively manage supply for these programs on a global scale, particularly for newer specialist medicines.
To capture the full value of IIS while strengthening relationships with the investigator community, sponsor companies must have a supply strategy in place to address the time and resource demands of these variable study populations.
At the same time, there is a need to ensure that Sponsors receive the support they need balanced with the need to control IMP inventories and production scheduling.
- Emerging trends driving growth and value of investigator programs
