Expanding the Reach of Precision Medicine: Navigators, Networks and Decentralized Trials
Overview

​​​In this session, multidisciplinary staff from UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center will share their institution’s experience building a precision medicine program that meets the needs of a health system spanning academic, urban, and rural sites. Speakers will discuss the development of a clinical trial evaluating the impact of additional support for precision medicine. In this trial, a precision medicine navigator and a reflexive expert review of biomarker testing provide clinical decision support, and a decentralized clinical trial model increases involvement at sites that may not have historically participated in clinical research. Watch the webinar for valuable insights and lessons learned from implementation.

Webinar Objectives
  • Share experiences adapting precision medicine care to individual sites within a statewide health system​​
  • Describe the purpose, design, and decentralized trial model used in the PROGRESS clinical trial​​
  • Understand how decentralized methods reduce participation burden and expand access across diverse community oncology practices​
  • Share methodology for building a decentralized clinical trial (DCT) network for community oncology practices to participate in clinical research
