Baseline Assessment of a Global Clinical Investigator Landscape Poised for Structural Change

Therapeutic Innovation & Regulatory Science
Kenneth A GetzCerdi Beltre

Abstract

Mergers and acquisitions, the convergence of clinical research into clinical practice, more effective site selection and management practices, and efforts to improve investigator competence and credentials are all expected to contribute to consolidation in the global investigative site landscape during the coming 3 to 5 years. Tufts CSDD conducted an analysis of the FDA's Bioresearch Monitoring Information System (BMIS) to gather baseline data with which to monitor this anticipated structural change. More than half-a-million records were analyzed on clinical investigators who have filed at least 1 form 1572 with the FDA annually between 2008 and 2015. The results show that the global landscape of unique FDA-regulated principal investigators remains highly fragmented, nascent, and unstable. Principal investigators who file the lowest volume of 1572 forms each year make up the highest proportion of the global landscape, and one-third of all principal investigators each year are first-time filers. Each year, 40% of principal investigators drop out of the clinical research enterprise. However, there are signs that the landscape is beginning to scale and mature, particularly among investigators in North America. In addition, the rat...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
