ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
Ethics approval is only the first hurdle for a clinical trial. Every site then needs its own research governance review, and that can cost patients precious time. In this Clinical Trials Day webinar, Angela Scheppokat, Manager Governance at the Royal Melbourne Hospital Office for Research, explains how Melbourne Health, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre and the Royal Women's Hospital built a mutual governance pathway so one review can serve all three sites.
Angela takes us from the deed and the pilot through to the first study, a CAR T trial approved in four days, which helped secure Australia's first site activation. She then turns to artificial intelligence, outlining how her hospital defines its risk appetite, draws on national and Victorian guidance, and works with its Digital Health Committee to oversee AI in research.
A practical listen for research governance offices, trial sponsors and anyone building a flexible, risk-responsive process across sites.
