Is there room for new COAs in neuroscience?
As we strive to improve health outcomes for patients with neurological conditions, the development of new clinical outcomes assessments (COAs) is crucial. Advancements in COAs are at a tipping point, significantly impacting the future of clinical trials and patient care.
Our clinical development and regulatory experts discuss the importance of developing new COAs to better capture the full spectrum of patient experiences, particularly in conditions like multiple sclerosis (MS). With MS as a focal point, our experts highlight the gaps in current assessments and
In this episode, Andreas Lysandropoulos, Naomi Suminski, and Simona Stankeviciute share insights on the evolving understanding of neurological conditions and the hidden problems that current COAs may overlook. They emphasize the importance of patient-centered research and the role of early and strategic planning in regulatory success. Pushing the boundaries with innovative approaches to COAs in neuroscience we can ensure that clinical trials reflect meaningful changes in patients’ lives.

Leveraging people, processes and technology to deliver for biotech
Small and emerging biotech companies have varied challenges compared to mid-large size pharma companies, with paths that aren’t always as straightforward as taking a compound through clinical development to launch. Our biotech clients drive towards these key inflection points from proof of concept to compound development, to capital raises based on data, to acquisition, and sometimes even launching a compound themselves. And they need a partner that brings deep clinical, scientific, therapeutic, and regulatory expertise, and still being agile and nimble to help them develop and execute their plans with confidence.
In this podcast, Jennifer Warneke, Senior Vice President of Parexel Biotech. Sarah Berry, Senior Director, Portfolio Management, Parexel Biotech and Daniel Montoya Giraldo, Project Director, Parexel Biotech discuss the different goals that they help our biotech customers achieve, what a good partnership looks like and examples of how they address challenges when they arise.
This podcast focuses on topics relating to the global journey to create a healthier world through developing innovative new therapies for patients everywhere.
