October 6, 2008: Clinical Research Professionals of North Carolina (a chapter of SoCRA)

Presentation: Clinical Trial Material (CTM) for CRAs

Speaker: Margaret Schubert, B.A.

Venue: Cato Research, Ltd., Durham, NC. Time: 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM

Summary: Ms. Schubert will provide a brief overview of activities required to bring CTM to a clinical setting. Specific issues in which CRAs should be knowledgeable will be discussed, including the receipt, holding, use and destruction of CTM in the clinic. Very often, the CTM production process is viewed as a 'black box' by clinical professionals. A general understanding of the process and time line required to produce CTM and it's handling at the clinical sites will improve compliance, site visit and site close-out efficiency and effectiveness.
