Introduction

On March 11, 2021, Atlantic Research Group, an oncology CRO focusing on early phase trials, presented a webinar via Xtalks that focused on helping to make adaptive dose-finding trials easier. Below you can find a video and transcript of the event.

Key takeaways from the event:

• Make clinical programs more precise without making them more complicated
• The math is intricate but that should not be a deterrent to the clinician’s decisions
• The best chance at clinical success is correct dosing as soon as possible
• Reaching MTD in a streamlined way can be done without wishful thinking or fear
