Clinical trial support companies are rapidly adopting AI, but sponsors have been more hesitant. Raj Indupuri, CEO of eClinical Solutions, gives the top three reasons behind the holdup in AI agent deployment. He explains the specific pattern of uptake for these agents, the required human-in-the-loop oversight, and how the agents can improve clinical trial velocity. Host Deborah Borfitz also gives the latest news on a highly acclaimed treatment for pancreatic cancer, filling evidence gaps in drug safety during pregnancy, guidelines for routinely collected health data for research purposes, an innovative portal aiding bidirectional communication with patients, and more.
