Key takeaways

  • Sabine Hutchison and Alan Morgan discuss measuring what truly matters in clinical trials.
  • Most trial KPIs measure activity rather than progress, which is why dashboards can look healthy while a trial drifts.
  • Smart KPIs are the ones that would change a decision if they moved.

Frequently asked questions
