Summary
2026-03-20 Hosts Dr. Amir Kalali, Jane Myles, and Jean Stimola-Sposaro were joined by Patrick Lee and Dr. Suna Avcil from Amgen’s Digital Medicine team. They shared how they are bridging innovation and real-world practice across their organization. They discuss launching decentralized clinical trials (DCTs), including a hands-on workshop with 50+ medical colleagues, and their approach to change management, starting with open-minded teams, securing leadership support, and using real-world examples to drive adoption. The conversation highlights the importance of starting small, maintaining momentum, and enabling success through clear communication, accessible resources, and collaboration with partners like DTRA.
