Challenges of Clinical Trial Design, Conduct & Endpoints Workstream
Back to Task Forces & IDDI Workstreams
The Challenges of Clinical Trial Design, Conduct & Endpoints Workstream aims to provide solutions to complex questions and hot topics in the field:
- What’s the future of clinical trial design?
- How do we transform clinical endpoints into validated regulatory endpoints?
- How can we maximise outcomes for patients participating in these trials?
The Workstream is currently working on synthesising the group’s experience and knowledge of clinical trial designs into a guidance document. We hope this will inspire the next generation of scientists to facilitate the development of novel drugs and treatments for PH patients. If you’re interested in joining this Workstream please get in touch.

Want to be part of something special?
All PVRI members are welcome to join an IDDI Workstream or a Task Force.
Our Regional Task Forces don't yet have global coverage. If you're interested in starting one, please contact us.
Interested in accessing global data on PH patient experience?
Almost 4,000 patients and carers across 85 countries completed Phase 1 of our PH Global Patient Survey (PHGPS). Questions across all PH groups included diagnostic tests & timelines, genetic testing, treatments, financial burdens, hospital visits, research participation, quality of life, telemedicine, patient-reported outcome measures, and self-monitoring with digital technology. The findings have the potential to improve patient care, guide future research and help us address unmet needs.
