This session presents best practices for engaging study sites and parents/patients as partners in the trial process.
Learning Objective : Identify pertinent topics to discuss with investigators/sites during the study planning process; Distinguish how successful pediatric programs differ from traditional recruitment tactics, including increasing parent investment towards the clinical trial process; Recognize best practices for engaging patients, parents, and investigators.
