Experimental Cancer Medicine Centre (ECMC) Network Meeting
Date: 30 May 2023
In May, the NHS R&D Forum was invited to be on the panel of the Experimental Cancer Medicine Centre (ECMC) Network meeting to discuss innovation in clinical trial delivery. The panel, which was chaired by Lord O’Shaughnessy, was a timely and lively discussion and well received from the audience. Academic and patient representation from the ECMC was given by Prof Sarah Blagden and Elspeth Banks respectively, Sir Martin Landray who co-led the RECOVERY trial provided his experience of study set-up during the pandemic, and Angela Topping from the NHS R&D Forum provided the overview of challenges experienced in trial set up and delivery from the NHS R&D Perspective.
