Drug development is a strictly regulated area. As such, marketing approval of a new drug depends heavily, if not exclusively, on evidence generated from clinical trials. Drug development has seen tremendous innovation in science and technology that has revolutionized the treatment of some diseases. And yet, the statistical design and practical conduct of the clinical trials used to test new therapeutics for safety and efficacy have changed very little over the decades. Our approach to clinical trials is steeped in convention and tradition. The large, fixed, randomized controlled trial methods that have been the gold standard are well understood and expected by many trial stakeholders. However, this approach is not well suited to all aspects of modern drug development and the current competitive landscape. We now see new therapies that target a small fraction of the patient population, rare diseases with high unmet medical needs, and pediatric populations that must wait for years for new drug approvals from the time that therapies are approved in adults. Large randomized clinical trials are at best inefficient and at worst completely infeasible in many modern clinical settings. Advances in technology and data infrastructure call for innovations in clinical trial design.
