Oncology studies, like other biomarker-rich therapeutic areas, generate multiple sample types and derivatives that travel to diverse specialty labs, screening labs, and biorepositories. As research and operations teams often lack centralized visibility into sample collection, processing, and storage status, they face the unenviable task of overcoming sample and data chaos.
Within this eBook, authored for oncology translational research and clinical operations teams, Precision experts examine the various impacts sample chaos can have on complex oncology clinical trials, answer questions such as:
Download the eBook to learn easy-to-implement approaches for keeping track of clinical samples without resorting to headache-inducing spreadsheets.
As veterans of clinical trial data management, the authors describe ways to break down data silos to help generate both scientific and operational insights for oncology research teams. Discover how a well-annotated virtual repository can be a powerful tool for more efficient drug development.
