The FDA’s new guidance on decentralized clinical trials (DCTs) presents huge opportunities to validate your product faster and more cost-effectively. Telehealth, local healthcare providers (HCPs), and digital health technologies (DHTs) were already permissible, but now the FDA has provided clear, structured guidelines to make these trials easier to manage. 1.
