Site-Sponsor Consortium

The Power of Collaboration in Clinical Research

The Site-Sponsor Consortium is a small, invitation-only collaborative designed to bring together some of the brightest minds and most influential leaders in the clinical research industry.

Our Vision

A future where sites and sponsors work together seamlessly, fostering innovation, reducing complexities, and bringing life-changing treatments to patients faster.

Our Mission

Address the critical challenges facing clinical research today and to develop forward-thinking strategies to propel the industry forward. Through the efforts of a tight-knit group, and by fostering an environment of open dialogue, shared knowledge, and strategic innovation, we aim to create lasting impact, publish best practices, and thus drive meaningful change.

Our Focus

Collaborative

Cultivate a collaborative environment wherein key stakeholders forge meaningful relationships with each other and enhance the effectiveness of clinical research delivery industry-wide.

Forward Thinking

Acquire insights into industry needs and foresight into the future landscape of our industry by facilitating informed, collective efforts towards long-term strategic evolution for accelerated trial outcomes.

Thought Leading

Produce thought leadership and usable work products to help our clients and the industry achieve additional operational efficiencies, publish articles, and create presentations to publicize them.

“Advarra believes a site-centric, patient-focused approach is needed to solve longstanding process and workflow challenges faced by the clinical research industry. Our strategic relationships with sites, life sciences companies, and CROs put Advarra in a unique position to bring together leaders in the industry, meeting this challenge head-on and building a site-centric connected ecosystem.”

Christine Senn Head of Site Sponsor Innovation, Advarra

“My work as Head of Site Partnerships has shown me the current challenges and impact of the site experience in clinical research. What I believe makes this consortium unique and positioned for success is its mission towards creating holistic efficiency by ensuring all impacted parties have a voice to drive solutions.”

Ross Watson Director of Global Clinical Operations, CSL Behring

“I’ve seen many collaborative initiatives over the years, but lack of site input or consistent standards has prevented any attempt from truly having the impact they promised. While we all operate under regulatory standards, we have yet to define and implement technology standards across sites, sponsors, and CROs.”

Brian SevierChief Operations Officer, Yale Center for Clinical Investigation

Shaping the Future of Clinical Research

The consortium is built on three core pillars:

Persistent Progress

A commitment to creating change at the organizations we represent, such that we can provide standards-based solutions that can benefit the entire industry.

Workflows

Aligning stakeholders across the clinical trial lifecycle — from protocol design to study execution and close — ensuring efficient collaboration and reducing redundancies.

Transparency

Making solutions and best practices publicly available to all, with the intention of helping stakeholders within the clinical trial industry remove unnecessary complexity.

Working Together to Change Clinical Research

The Site-Sponsor Consortium aims to streamline the processes currently hampering clinical research by integrating sponsor, CRO, and site workflows, reducing administrative burdens, and allowing sites to focus on what matters most — patient care.

Sites

The Consortium works toward reduced administrative burden, less duplication of efforts, improved centralized document and resource management, and a stronger voice in how trials operate.

Participants

The Consortium works toward improved experiences, more time with site staff, and better resources, all leading to more successful trials.
