“Hot off the press in American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) journal JCO oncology advances

Pleased to share our study “Impact of FDA Project Optimus Guidance on Design of Early-Phase Clinical Trials”

Analysis of 367 phase I oncology trials (2021-2024) reveals Project Optimus is transforming cancer drug development:

Bayesian designs surged 48% → 75%
30% now include dose-optimization plans
