IDDI Complimentary Webinar on characteristics of Covid-19 trials and impact of the pandemic on clinical trials
The current SARS-CoV-2-induced coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has called for urgent design and implementation of clinical trials against this potentially life-threatening infection. The pandemic has also had a tremendous impact on ongoing clinical trials for all other indications. In both cases, the crisis has highlighted several limitations that currently exist and hinder a more agile and pragmatic, but at the same time ethically and scientifically sound, clinical-trials enterprise.
