This webinar series was developed in support of the objectives of the AUA Clinical Trials Collective^TM. 

Several important elements are critical to successful clinical trial research conduction in advanced prostate cancer, for both new trial investigation sites and well-established programs.  This webinar explores fundamental to advanced concepts that leading urologist-investigators attribute to clinical trial research success—and failure.  Cornerstone concepts and best-practice strategies in patient recruitment and retention, protocol adherence and oversight, and data integrity and audit readiness will be discussed in-depth.  Advanced concepts and high-stakes conversations pertinent to experienced clinical trialists such as site desirability for funders and industry partners, publication expectations, and identification of gaps in existing and opportunities for future trials will also be introduced by some of the most impactful and productive clinical trial researchers in the field of urology.
