class="text-picture__text"> <h3> </h3> <div><h4><strong>Master protocol designs</strong></h4><p>Often, therapies are developed and tested in isolation rather than simultaneously for multiple related diseases. However, this framework is suboptimal for obesity and its interconnected conditions and comorbidities. Master protocol designs can create efficiencies in drug development for these interconnected therapeutic indications. ICON offers design, simulation and execution of <a href="/solutions/consulting/asset-development/adaptive-trials">adaptive</a> and innovative clinical trials, including basket, umbrella and platform protocols.</p><h4><strong>Early phase obesity studies</strong></h4><p>ICON has proven success designing, managing, and executing <a href="https://www.iconplc.com/solutions/early-clinical/early-phase-obesity-trials">early phase obesity studies</a> enrolling overweight and obese volunteers. With a robust database of overweight/obese volunteers across our clinical research units we can rapidly meet key eligibility criteria and study milestone timelines. Over the last five years we have successfully achieved or exceeded enrolment targets across more than 35 early phase studies, with 95% retention rates, even for very long duration trials with multiple overnights and long follow-up periods.</p><p><strong>Feasibility and site selection</strong></p><p>Obesity clinical trials are usually long and complex, so it can be hard to accurately estimate enrolment and study timelines. To address this challenge, ICON has developed and licensed industry-leading tools to support all aspects of <a href="/solutions/clinical-scientific-operations/site-identification-and-feasibility">feasibility and site identification</a>. With ICON’s award-winning <a href="/solutions/technologies/one-search">AI-driven data aggregation and analysis platform</a>, licensed partner data can be integrated with ICON performance data to predict which sites have the highest probability to enroll subjects.</p><h4>Patient recruitment and retention</h4><ul><li>Patient access continues to be one of the biggest industry challenges, impacting time and cost in clinical trials. ICON's <a href="/solutions/technologies/firecrest">FIRECREST</a> Pre-Screen solution improves the speed and accuracy of the pre-screening process compared to other current paper-based and eScreen methods. The data harvested from the process is aggregated to form actionable insights into the key drivers of pre-screen success and failure.</li><li>Working relationships with thousands of <a href="/therapeutics/cardiovascular">cardiovascular</a> investigative sites across the globe helps tailor recruitment strategies to each study.</li><li><p>ICON uses a patient centric approach to provide study specific patient recruitment and engagement strategies on a global basis.</p><p><strong>Patient-centric trials</strong></p><p>Increasing patient centricity in clinical research is bringing benefits to both patients and sponsors. ICON provides <a href="/solutions/site-and-patient-solutions">Site & Patient Solutions</a> that make it easier for the site and the patient to actively participate in a trial - an essential part of increasing predictability in enrolment and retention.</p></li><li>Decentralised obesity clinical trials enhance patient experience, retention and compliance rates by connecting, monitoring and engaging patients at every step of the clinical trial journey with customised support service. ICON is already deploying <a href="/solutions/decentralised-clinical-trials">decentralised clinical trials</a> on a global basis in multiple therapeutic areas and will support you in navigating assessment, planning and execution for better outcomes.</li><li>Digital health technology can support compliance and patient retention in obesity clinical trials. Our dedicated <a href="/sectors/medical-device">medical device</a> and digital health technologies teams support device selection and digital endpoint validation.</li><li><a href="https://www.accellacare.com/" target="_blank">Accellacare</a> is ICON’s global clinical research network offering customers a wide range of stand-alone and integrated solutions for their studies, including patient assessments at our sites or in-home to reduce site and patient burden. </li><li>Using digital patient recruitment and removing barriers, such as travel and complex trial logistics, increases access to diverse patient populations and underrepresented communities.</li></ul><h4><strong>Cardiac Safety Solutions</strong></h4><p>Cardiac safety is a key component of any drug or device clinical trial, with regulatory authorities requiring sponsors to demonstrate cardiac safety for all drugs. The collection and reporting of high-quality data is therefore essential to drive decisions across all phases of drug development.</p><p>ICON offers a range of <a href="/solutions/cardiac-safety-solutions">end-to-end cardiac safety services</a>, including electrocardiography (ECG), event monitoring, blood pressure monitoring (BPM), long-term Holter monitoring, echocardiography (ECHO) and multi-gated acquisition scan (MUGA) studies. Our highly experienced team includes medical doctors, board-certified cardiologists, cardiovascular research scientists, and expert cardiac consultants who will support every aspect of your trial, including protocol design, statistical analysis, expert report writing and communication with regulatory agencies.</p><h4><strong>Medical Imaging</strong></h4><p>ICON provides end-to-end integrated solutions based on the science of imaging biomarkers via cutting edge technology and image analysis tools. We have <a href="/solutions/medical-imaging">medical imaging expertise</a> with specialisations in multi-modal image acquisition (MRI-PDFF, MRE, CT, DXA) and processing expertise in<a href="/therapeutics/endocrine-metabolic-disorders/non-alcoholic-steatohepatitis-nash"> MASH</a> and obesity assessments. Our core team of more than 450 qualified clinical imaging professionals includes radiologists, imaging scientists, and certified imaging technologists. These highly trained and experienced experts will provide advice on imaging endpoints and the critical uses of imaging for the medical, scientific and regulatory aspects of your trial - enabling improved decision making and successful outcomes.</p><h4><strong>Data-driven solutions for commercialisation</strong></h4><p><a href="/solutions/consulting/regulatory-affairs-consulting">Achieving regulatory approval</a> is no longer enough to ensure commercial success. ICON supports <a href="/solutions/consulting/commercial-positioning-consulting">commercial positioning</a> with consulting and with <a href="https://www.iconplc.com/solutions/technologies/symphony-health/">Symphony Health</a>, our integrated health data liquidity and analytics. Symphony Health supports an <a href="/solutions/symphony-health/integrated-dataverse-and-source-solutions">Integrated Dataverse (IDV®)</a>, one of the largest integrated repositories of healthcare data, which provides comprehensive coverage of pharmacy prescriptions and claims, medical claims, and institution claims and sales. Through cloud-based solutions and consulting services, sponsors gain a more holistic view of how payer, prescriber, and patient behaviour impact brand success.</p><h4><strong>Post market follow-up</strong></h4><p>The only way to prove the true value of a medical device or therapy is to collect <a href="/solutions/real-world-intelligence">real-world data (RWD)</a> on its safety, efficacy and cost outcomes outside of the clinic. Long-term data is especially important for information on duration of treatment and dosage of new drugs. ICON’s <a href="https://www.iconplc.com/solutions/real-world-intelligence/clinical-trial-tokenisation/">tokenisation</a> and <a href="https://www.iconplc.com/solutions/real-world-intelligence/rwe-strategy-analytics/">real world data</a> capabilities make this post market follow-up possible.</p></div> </div> </div> </div>
