This interactive two-part workshop will help attendees who may be primarily involved in tactical activities understand how a company makes strategic decisions for moving a product forward. After a review of a new drug product, attendees will work in teams to discuss their product's information and make recommendations for whether and how their product should be advanced through the development pipeline.

Part 1 of this workshop will focus on processes and decisions in Phase 2, while Part 2 will focus on Phase 3 and the decision to file.

Pre-registration is required, and attendees are strongly encouraged to attend both Part 1 and Part 2.

Part 1 will take place on Monday, 11:00 am — 12:30 pm.
