Episode: 46 - Dan Drozd on How Noninterventional Studies Can Change the Clinical Research Game

The Scope of Things
Dela

Noninterventional studies in clinical research are underutilized in clinical research and inefficient. Dan Drozd, CMO of PicnicHealth, knows we can do better. With host Deborah Borfitz, Drozd discusses the issues and ramifications researchers face from the lack of noninterventional studies, offers tactics for raising the bar for evidence generation, and shares what he expects in the clinical research space in 2026 in this episode of the Scope of Things. Plus, Borfitz shares the latest news on an expanding good pharma score card, an entirely telehealth-based cancer trial, a novel online platform for bowel cancer research, improving patient-reported outcomes in cancer trials, a virtual clinical trial for psychedelics, and identifying Type 1 diabetes in the symptom-less window stage.
