3、environmental,societal,regulatory,and geopolitical shifts have re-shaped the clinical trial pipeline of activity and operations.Together these changes have converged to enable the emergence of new global players and in places,these shifts have contributed to execution challenges,delays,capacity conc
4、erns,and ongoing uncertainty resulting in slower clinical development program timelines with impact on patient treatment options and outcomes.With these changes,clinical trial country prioritization has become a critical focus across clinical research stakeholders.This report sets out to characteriz
5、e the need for clinical trial global diversification by assessing trends in enrollment timelines,trial characteristics,and country utilization over the past five years.It examines the recent shifts and consolidation in regional and country clinical trial allocation,including analysis of the role of
6、single-country trials.An analytical approach based on third party data and IQVIA subject matter expert characterization of country attributes is used to identify opportunities for country diversification.This analysis includes an exploration of a small set of countries with high patient recruitment
7、opportunities but varying infrastructure readiness,and highlights opportunities for multi-stakeholder investment to extend clinical research global options.This analysis focuses on broadly-available country-level metrics as a basis for longer-term industry-wide decision-making for expanding the pool
8、 of countries suitable for clinical trials.This work was undertaken recognizing that individual sponsor decisions about country inclusion are based on many factors beyond country readiness,including sponsor and partner capabilities,recent trial enrollment performance,and specific population epidemio
9、logy and standard-of-care considerations,all of which can sway country attractiveness assessments-especially for immediate trial decision-making.The study was produced independently by the IQVIA Institute for Human Data Science as a public service,without industry or government funding.The contribut

14、te 512|Rethinking Clinical Trial Country Prioritization:Enabling Agility through Global DiversificationTHE NEED FOR CLINICAL TRIAL GLOBAL DIVERSIFICATIONClinical trial enrollment durations have been increasing over the past five years across all phases and therapeutic areas,and the average time from
15、 trial start to patient enrollment close for all trials in the pipeline increased by 26%from 2019 to 2023.More specifically,Phase I trial enrollment times increased by 39%,taking an average of five months longer in 2023 than in 2019,Phase II increased by 29%by adding six months,and Phase III increas
16、ed by 16%and took an average of three months longer to recruit patients.This increase in enrollment time has been consistent across all therapeutic areas,with oncology,neurology and cardiovascular showing the greatest enrollment duration increases six months for oncology and five months for neurolog
17、y and cardiovascular between 2019 and 2023.The average number of subjects and the combined average number of enrollment criteria and trial endpoints have also increased over the past five years by 38%and 15%,respectively,and these increases have been spread across therapeutic areas.1 Concurrent with
18、 these increasing trial demands and enrollment timelines,the average number of countries declined 20%and sites per trial declined by 15%.The decrease in country and site utilization have also occurred across therapeutic areas but have been most pronounced in oncology and neurology trials.Emerging bi
19、opharma companies(EBPs)are sponsoring a record high share of trials but are using fewer countries and are more likely than larger companies to run single country trials.EBPs have seen a sharper drop in the number of countries per trial than large pharmaceutical companies(15%versus 10%)in the past fi
20、ve years and are thus a key driver in the overall pipeline country utilization decline.While decreases in country utilization per trial may be driven by operational and strategic focus by sponsors to reduce costs,this trend may also be contributing to longer enrollment times by limiting enrollment s
21、pan per trial and creating recruitment challenges in saturated geographies or therapeutic areas.Recent geopolitical volatility,viral outbreaks,and transition to a multipolar world have contributed to global,regional,and local trial enrollment and execution disruptions and further underscore the need
22、 to enable site and country diversification to alleviate bottlenecks and enable agility.ASSESSING COUNTRY ATTRACTIVENESS FOR TRIAL SITES BASED ON TRIAL TYPESTrial needs and country and site selection are often assessed along therapeutic lines to consider varying enrollment and execution complexity.W
23、hile this works to align some of a site or a countrys patient access and operational capabilities to incoming trials,many of the standard therapeutic areas contain trials with a blend of needs.Trial characteristics including patient volume,medical complexity and visit intensity can be used to define
24、 segments more distinctly than conventional therapy area segmentation.Consideration of the industry clinical trial pipeline through the lens of patient volume,medical complexity,and visit intensity suggests a set of nine categories blended across phase,therapeutic,mechanistic and regulatory driven d
25、ifferences in clinical trial execution.Analysis of trial segments against trial characteristics confirms that each segment is distinct against both complexity and volume metrics and provides a way to examine drivers of enrollment duration and number of countries.Overview2|Rethinking Clinical Trial C
26、ountry Prioritization:Enabling Agility through Global Diversificationiqviainstitute.org|3RECENT TRENDS IN REALLOCATING TRIAL SITES ACROSS REGIONS AND COUNTRIESThere has been a significant rebalancing of global clinical trial activity between regions over the past five years,with a notable move away
27、from Europe and toward China and North America.Through this rebalancing,Western Europe has remained the most utilized region,but the relative share of country-uses has dropped by 21%since 2019 from 32%to 25%.This shift in global trial activity is mostly consistent across all segments and throughout
28、the COVID-19 pandemic years.The increase in China utilization is mainly being driven by an increase in China-headquartered companies sponsoring trials,and specifically with China headquartered companies running single-country trials,especially in Phase I,oncology,and cell and gene therapy.The total
29、number of China headquartered trials using only China sites rose from 18%to 26%of total trials from 2019 to 2023.Concentration of trial activity by country is high with the 10 leading countries being responsible for 58%of the total clinical trial country-uses from 20212023,while the next 10 accounte
30、d for only 19%of the total country-use share.Over the five-year timeframe from 2019-2023,this concentration has been increasing as the top 10 most-used countries share of trial uses increased by 8.6%while the next 40 most used countries decreased by 3%and the remaining 95 countries relative trial-us
31、e decreased by 2%.MAPPING OPPORTUNITIES ACCORDING TO COUNTRY ATTRIBUTESA process to look closely and systematically at which countries can reliably be used to recruit and execute clinical trials can be useful in an environment of shifting country clinical trial capabilities and capacity.Ideally a co
32、untry prioritization process answers a series of questions about the characteristics of a successful country,the relative clinical trial readiness across countries,opportunities for greater or lesser inclusion of countries in clinical trials,and variance by trial type and implications for near-and l
33、ong-term investments across stakeholders.Focus on publicly available metrics and targeted subject matter expert input to describe country infrastructure,clinical infrastructure,and patient availability by country leads to significantly different ordering of analyzed countries across these dimensions
34、,suggesting a tension in drivers of country attractiveness for running clinical trials.A Country Readiness Score that balances country and clinical infrastructure with patient availability creates an integrated ranking and suggests some shifts from current trial utilization.These shifts represent re
35、prioritization opportunities.Trial segments can be grouped to four trial types,which in turn have similar country requirements.Different trial types require slightly different country characteristics,and the country readiness algorithm can be adjusted to align countries to different trial types.Prio
36、ritization of countries using trial type specific analysis and comparing to current utilization patterns identifies country opportunities,which differ across trial types although Japan,Germany and France have larger opportunities There has been a significant rebalancing of global clinical trial acti

38、ghts specific areas for investment focus to enable clinical trial readiness.There are many ways to approach this type of analysis,and the particulars of the approach will vary based on the available data and the specific trials and pipelines being considered.This approach focuses on publicly availab
39、le country focused data to build an independent industry resource and baseline around country characteristics.Other stakeholders may have additional operational data on enrollment performance that also reflects sponsor or CRO capabilities and infrastructure and which can dramatically influence count
40、ry selection assessments especially for immediate trial decision making in the context of a particular trial with a particular partner.Analysis of country capabilities enables sponsors and CROs as well as governments and industry associations to inform near-term country and trial choices,but also to
41、 prioritize and partner around long-term investments to optimize global clinical trial readiness.USING CASE STUDIES TO HIGHLIGHT LONGER TERM COUNTRY OPPORTUNITIESLooking beyond countries with the highest current readiness the top 10 of which account for 60%of todays country utilization allows for fo
42、cus on next tier countries.Denmark,Belgium and Poland are examples of countries with very high operational readiness,but smaller patient availability.These countries represent immediate opportunities for placing trials as long as potential capacity constraints are considered and addressed.Opportunit
43、y tier countries have high patient availability but gaps in operational infrastructure.India,Brazil,and South Africa are examples of countries with high patient availability but operational gaps that prevent them from being utilized in clinical trials in proportion to the patient need.A closer look
44、at clinical research infrastructure related efforts in these countries suggests how opportunities can be recognized in this tier.India presents a significant patient access and affordability opportunity but lags highly utilized countries across most analyzed country infrastructure and clinical infra
45、structure metrics.Recent regulatory streamlining and public-private investments in diabetes and oncology infrastructure are closing operational gaps especially in urban centers creating roadmaps for further development of India for clinical trial delivery.Brazil also has a significant patient access
46、 opportunity but has been limited in clinical trial use by regulatory challenges and lack of consistent infrastructure,including experienced clinician research staff capacity.A recent regulatory law addressing many of the regulatory process concerns,and multiple examples of public-private investment
47、 in clinical research training demonstrate focus targeting mid-and long-term clinical trial readiness in Brazil.South Africa,and more broadly Sub-Saharan Africa,has the potential to enable access for unique pools of patients to participate in clinical trials,and like Brazil and India,has seen signif
48、icant recent focus on enablers of clinical trial readiness.Pan-African efforts like that of the African Medicines Agency seek to harmonize clinical research regulatory policy while multiple public-private investments provide examples of broad capacity building that,with ongoing targeted focus on reg
49、ulatory,training,and technology,has potential to close operational gaps and enable the opportunity in this region.4|Rethinking Clinical Trial Country Prioritization:Enabling Agility through Global Diversificationiqviainstitute.org|5 Clinical trial enrollment has been taking longer over the past five
50、 years;the time from trial start to the end of enrollment has increased by 26%across all phases.This enrollment time trend has been consistent across all therapeutic areas,with oncology,neurology,and cardiovascular showing the greatest enrollment duration increases six months for oncology and five m
51、onths for neurology and cardiovascular between 2019 and 2023.At the same time,the average number of countries and sites per trial have declined by 15%and 20%since 2019 even as clinical trial volume and operational demands have increased by 38%and 15%,respectively.EBPs are sponsoring a record high sh

53、by limiting enrollment span per trial and reaching restrictions in recruitment capacity in saturated geographies or therapeutic areas.Recent geopolitical volatility,viral outbreaks,and transition to a multipolar world further underscore the need to enable site and country diversification to alleviat

55、Rethinking Clinical Trial Country Prioritization:Enabling Agility through Global Diversification Enrollment duration measured as the time from trial start to enrollment close for all industry-sponsored interventional clinical trials completing enrollment in the past five years has increased across a
56、ll phases in that timeframe.Phase I saw the largest increase of 39%with enrollment taking an average additional five months for trials ending enrollment in 2023 versus 2019.Phase II and Phase III saw 23%and 16%increases,respectively,with Phase II enrollment times increasing by an average of six mont
57、hs over the five-year timeframe.Enrollment times plateaued or decreased slightly across all three phases in 2020 and 2021,consistent with the timing of the pipeline impact of the bolus of COVID-19 trials that contributed to a decrease in average enrollment times even as trials in other therapeutic a
58、reas may have encountered recruitment challenges.Exhibit 1:Enrollment duration in months by phase for all industry interventional clinical trials by enrollment close dateNotes:Enrollment duration is time from trial start to enrollment close and includes actual enrollment durations only.Trials exclud

61、ars.Oncology enrollment times were the longest of all therapeutic areas across the timeframe,followed by cardiovascular,endocrinology,and neurology.In addition to having the longest enrollment,oncology also saw the largest absolute increase of six months and the third largest relative increase at 19
62、%over the five-year timespan.Increases in enrollment timelines in oncology are likely linked to continued increases in trial enrollment complexity as complex or new mechanisms,including cell and gene therapies,multispecific antibodies,and antibody drug conjugates increase in the trial pipeline.Given
63、 the longer enrollment timelines,continued increase in oncology as a proportion of the pipeline over the 20192023 timeframe is part of the dynamics driving up total pipeline enrollment duration across phases.Neurology had the highest increase in enrollment duration at 39%followed by 28%for cardiovas
64、cular over the same timeframe.The more significant increase in enrollment times for cardiovascular and neurobiology are not driven by significant differences in phase enrollment times or phase makeup of the therapeutic pipelines over the five-year timeframe(not shown),suggesting slower average enrol

68、lobal Diversification The number of subjects and the average number of enrollment criteria and endpoints increased across the pipeline by 38%and 15%,respectively,from 2019 to 2023.Although these increases have occurred with a backdrop of continued increase in the share of oncology trials in the pipe

78、 more than$10Bn in annual global pharmaceutical sales)using nearly three times the number of countries per trial as EBPs in 2023.This trend has held across the last five years,and both EBPs and large pharma companies have seen their country use drop,with EBP country use dropping by 15%and large phar

86、inical Trial Country Prioritization:Enabling Agility through Global Diversification Over the past five years,global clinical trial disruptions have occurred across multiple dimensions including environmental,geopolitical and economic.The COVID-19 pandemic provides the starkest example of disruption
87、across all dimensions of clinical trial execution,requiring unprecedented geographic and operational agility,and has had an enduring impact on sites,investigators,and patients.As supply chains were being repaired and trials across the globe were being restarted,the Russian invasion of Ukraine in Feb
88、ruary 2022 disrupted healthcare systems and clinical trial operations in two significant trial geographies.Violence struck in October of 2023 in Israel and Palestine,leading to ongoing volatility and disruption in the Middle East,even as sponsors and CROs rebalanced clinical trial operations across
89、eastern Europe.Economically,as systems shift to a multipolar supply chain,an escalation in U.S.and China trade tensions has implications for China-U.S.biotechnology partnerships and business threats for both countries.2 Based on a recent survey of leading economic experts3,technology,societal,geopol
90、itical,and environmental global risks are expected to drive near-and long-term impact to the global economy.The heightened criticality of anticipating,assessing,and responding to global clinical trial operations disruptions puts having an agile process for diversification of global clinical trial op

100、ation Country and site selection and investments are often made through the lens of the therapeutic area,with priority given to those sites and countries that have facilities and experience in the relevant therapeutic areas.While this works to align some of a site or countrys patient access and oper
101、ational capabilities to incoming trials,many of the standard therapeutic areas have a blend of needs.Oncology,for example,is a blend of rare and non-rare disease with trials that may have drastically different profiles,ranging from very few patients with very specific biomarker profiles to very high
102、 volume of patients with relatively few enrollment criteria.Taken further,these trials might involve very complex medical interventions and frequent monitoring as in the case of cell and gene therapies,or they might involve a patient-administered oral medication with fewer clinical site visits.Given
103、 these considerations,there is an opportunity to consider the industry pipeline through a different lens and to break it into segments that organize around site and country characteristics to enable operationalization.Consideration of the characteristics that enable trial execution related to volume
104、 and type of patients,the level of clinical trial complexity,and the level of medical complexity for the patients and conditions being tested can be a more useful way to assess countries that are optimized for clinical trial recruitment and execution.Exhibit 6:Illustrative mapping of trial character

115、 Consideration of the industry clinical trial pipeline through the lens of patient volume,medical complexity,and visit intensity suggests a set of categories blended across phase,therapy area and mechanism of action.A set of nine segments allows for useful separation of phase,therapeutic,mechanistic
116、,and regulatory-driven differences in clinical trial execution.At the least intensive end of the spectrum,including Phase I non-oncology and infectious disease/vaccine trials(IDV),categories may require a high number of patients but have relatively simple medical and clinical intensity,thus requirin
117、g a focus on efficiency and access to patients.In the middle of the spectrum,Phase I oncology trials and trials involving biologic molecules administered in specialist offices may require more intensive medical support,staffing and experience while also needing to enable moderate patient access and
118、screening.At the far end of the spectrum,clinical trials for cell and gene therapies and some rare diseases will require intensive patient screening and access to unique patients,highly specialized medical infrastructure,and experienced clinical staff.Across all trial types,there will be common site
119、 and country characteristics that enable clinical trial execution,including basic operational and governmental infrastructure,basic business regulations,optimized clinical trial costs,and mature and well working national regulatory agencies with clear and efficient regulatory processes.Additionally,
120、every trial may have specific competitive,patient,or execution requirements,including very specific epidemiology or line of therapy requirements that supersede segment-based site and country selection.Finally,all trials need to factor in the path to commercialization in selected trial geographies to
121、 address ethical and practical considerations to running a trial with patients who will not have access to the drug after the trial.Source:IQVIA Institute,June 2024.14|Rethinking Clinical Trial Country Prioritization:Enabling Agility through Global Diversification For the purposes of this research r
122、eport,the industry portfolio of all interventional trials in Phase I,II and III was broken into nine mutually exclusive segments to allow consideration of country utilization trends and opportunities through the lens of country characteristics required for trial success.A stepwise filtering process

246、al Efficiency trials make up 21%of the 2023 pipeline and groups Phase II and III primary care,infectious disease and all biosimilars based on their common need for higher patient numbers,but relatively low trial intensity.The Scientific Emphasis trial type includes 34%of 2023 trials and is defined a
247、s trials requiring low patient volume but high trial intensity,and includes rare disease,cell and gene therapy,and Phase I oncology all of which are expected to need countries with robust infrastructure across all dimensions but not necessarily high patient numbers.Medical Maturity makes up 28%of th

250、 than the 10 least-used with differences in magnitude of difference pointing to some country attributes being more important to country selection and trial success.Fixed broadband-which is directly relevant to assessing site readiness for clinical data capture and transmission and a proxy for inform

252、 across 10 most-and least-used trials and across trial types.Notably,the affordability metrics are highest for clinical effectiveness trials in the 10 least-used countries and lowest in the medical maturity trials in the 10 most-used countries likely because highly affordable countries have lagging
253、infrastructure,which may be more critical to medical maturity trial execution than affordability.Comparison of patient availability metrics across most-and least-used countries highlights the Healthcare Access and Quality Index which speaks to patient access to basic healthcare facilities and the nu
