Day 2- Session 10:

Title: Data Collection in Clinical Trials: The Role of the Nurse

Presented By:

• Joan O’Brien Shea, DNP, RN, CPON
• Ashley Bailey-Torres, RN, BSN

Session Details: Day 2, Session 10 3:20 PM EST (2:20 PM CST/1:20 PM MST/12:20 PM PST)

Overview of Session: Pediatric oncology patients frequently participate in clinical trials. Most of these trials are academic in nature and led by consortium groups aiming to improve treatment options and minimize late effects. The rapid development of oncology treatments in the past ten years has resulted in more pediatric patients participating in industry-sponsored registrational trials. To meet regulatory requirements, the data collected in these trials undergo a higher level of scrutiny and frequently require a larger amount of data be collected. Pediatric oncology nurses are in a unique position to ensure that data is collected accurately. During this brief session, we will review the key differences between academic and industry-sponsored trials and provide examples of best practices to ensure accurate data collection.

Learning Outcomes:

• Discuss the differences between academic and industry-sponsored clinical trials.
• Describe best practices for timely and accurate data collection.
