The workshop panel will be moderated by Barry Lake, CEO & Co-Founder of Devana Solutions, a leading provider of cloud technology to connect clinical research professionals to clinicians and patients in their communities.

SCOPE 2022 Recap: Takeaways from Clinical Ops Executives

February 22, 2022 by

The 2022 Summit for Clinical Operations Executives (SCOPE) has come to a close. Clinical operations executives from all parts of North America gathered in Orlando, Florida, to share the latest innovations in clinical trial recruitment, management, and analysis. Devana Solutions CEO and Co-Founder Barry Lake and Vice President of Operations Linda Parks attended the event to keep up with the latest trends and share how Devana Solutions’ cutting-edge platforms help pharmaceutical sponsors and clinical research organizations keep up with the rapid pace of technology adoption.

Our CTMS partners exhibiting were kind enough to refer Devana Solutions as a complementary platform to those stopping by their booths with a need for business development or startup solutions. Special shout-out to Elise Tawfiq of RealTime CTMS, as well as Mia Castagnero and Eric Elander of Clinical Research IO (CRIO) and the entire CRIO team for their hospitality.

We started the week by making history teeing off at SCOPE’s Inaugural Masters of Clinical Research Golf Tournament.

 

 

In between speakers and breakout sessions, the week was filled with talks from industry thought leaders and networking opportunities with colleagues. Since the first day, we were fortunate to spend time discussing the challenges of and solutions to patient recruitment in multisite studies with Trialbee CEO Matt Walz.

We congratulated Rick Riegel, for becoming the most recent member to join the Board of Directors at RealTime CTMS. We know that he will be a great asset to our friends at RealTime CTMS.

Although the clinical research industry is driven by technology, it’s the face-to-face interactions at conferences like these that put our work into perspective: “people caring for people.”

We met with Jill Johnson, President of WCG’s Clinical Services Organization, to celebrate her study planning and site optimization efforts! Using Devana Solutions PROPEL Enterprise Platform’s ability to provide reliable real-time and historic metrics, WCG can ascertain predictable study performance data by directly connecting their research sites and effortlessly manage study feasibility, track study workflow and milestone completion, and oversee site facilities and equipment.

Lastly, we always enjoy spending time discussing how our companies are innovating and leading the clinical trial space with Florence Healthcare CEO Ryan Jones.

“Year after year, we’re seeing the use of technology in drug development continuing at a breakneck pace. The way we conduct research has changed drastically because of it, and there’s no doubt that this trend will continue,” said Lake.

 

 

Vice President of Operations Linda Parks agrees. Thanks to innovations in data technologies, the world of clinical data management and analytics has seen some impressive advancements in recent years. If you’re looking to stay ahead of the curve with the digitization of healthcare data and its cloud storage, then you need to be able to seamlessly share and analyze performance levels across your entire research network.

“More than sites needing a platform that can keep up with the latest trends, they need a platform that can display actionable data in real-time,” said Parks.

It’s clear that Devana Solutions is the category leader when it comes to innovation in the field of pipeline administration, study startup workflow automation, metric analysis, and data visualization. Thanks to Devana Solutions, clinical trials are becoming more efficient every day.

Students of the Year is a philanthropic leadership development program for exemplary high school students that fosters professional skills such as entrepreneurship, marketing, and project management. The students involved in this campaign raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, the world’s largest nonprofit fighting blood cancer.

The Sherners, along with their friend Theo Weiman, formed Team Raise Hope Together in honor of their children’s grandfather, Larry Thayer, who was diagnosed with CLL (Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia) in 2007.

In April of this past year, their children’s aunt, Betsy, found a tumor on her left breast. Days later, she received a breast cancer diagnosis. In the months since, she has undergone a double mastectomy and a complete hysterectomy.

Devana Solutions is joining to be a part of the generation that puts an end to cancer and provides a monumental impact in the fight.

Devana Solutions’ CEO and Co-founder Barry Lake comments on the effort, “We are proud to support Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and the Students of the Year program. We strive to offer solutions to those committed to the fight against cancer, helping those researchers on the frontline close the gap in eliminating cancer by cutting time and costs in the drug development process. One day, we will defeat cancer!”

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is on a mission to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma and improve the quality of life for patients and their families. Since 1949, the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society has invested more than $1.5 billion in research to advance therapies and save lives. Today, blood cancer patients live longer because of these advancements made possible by the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

The family remains committed to defeating their diagnoses. “I continue to work on my personal recovery, which requires piecing together a new body, mind, and spirit,” their Aunt Betty said.
