Precision In, Precision Out: Elevated Kitting Strategies for Clinical Trials

Date: May 22, 2025

Duration: 60 Minutes

In this webinar, experts from Precision for Medicine will share practical strategies for designing, deploying, and managing clinical trial kits. The session covers the full process, from early protocol review and kit design to real-world case studies, emphasizing how overlooking basic elements such as sample preservation, temperature control, and clear instructions can compromise translational assays and delay critical data for dose escalation.

Attendees will learn best practices to ensure correct sample handling from the first patient, with a focus on overcoming logistical challenges and supporting strong biomarker strategies in early-phase trials. See the webinar in action below!

It provided key information to be taken into consideration for the design and preparation of sample collection, sample handling, storage and shipping of biological samples. What must be done in advance to prevent delays and what to do if study protocol changes during the conduct of the clinical trial.

—Clinical project leader, Spain
The detail was helpful on the slides and the Examples with time references were crutial to understanding.

— Research Manager, USA
Good insights into the sample workstream and critical impact points.

—Associate Director, Clinical Data Management, USA
Covered much of the preparation required for specialized kitting/sampling. Good information on how PFM deals with all of this.
