ANZGOG Clinical Research Ideas Starter Workshop
Both ANZGOG & ASGO members invited to attend
PRESENTED BY: PROF MARTIN STOCKLER, NHMRC Clinical Trials Centre
Assembly
Room
The aim of this workshop is to help participants develop good ideas that can be
turned into successful clinical research studies. The optimal approach to improving
cancer management is based on integrating rationally designed interventions with
the full range of established treatment modalities including surgery, irradiation,
anticancer drugs, supportive and psychosocial care. This presentation will consider
strategies, frameworks, and rules of thumb for turning intuitive clinical questions
into successful clinical studies.

ANZGOG Study Coordinators Workshop
Audit Readiness: Building in Quality Through Harmonisation and Process Improvement
Session Chair: Ms Sue Brew
GUEST SPEAKER: MS ELEANOR ALLAN
Federation
North
The workshop will provide an understanding of the key components of a Quality
System and the practical considerations in developing your own systems and
processes for conduct of your clinical trials. A good Quality System will help to
ensure you comply with regulatory requirements, increase efficiency and ensure
that your trials are set up and run correctly from the start. The best preparation
for an audit or monitoring visit is to ensure that you are audit ready from the
outset with quality and efficiency built into every stage of your trial. There will be
hands-on experience in identifying key gaps in your current processes, techniques
for developing SOPs, and ways of increasing collaboration with your partners in
ANZGOG trials. You will learn the basics of mapping processes and how to use that
map as the foundation for developing standard operating procedures.
You will also gain experience in identifying bottlenecks, timewasters and problems
in key processes by analysing the process map and develop strategies that you
can implement to prevent these issues. The workshop will include a discussion
session with colleagues from the NHMRC CTC to create an action plan for improving
processes and increasing quality for ANZGOG studies.
3.30pm-5.30pm
ANZGOG Brachytherapy Workshop - Part I
Session Chair: Dr Pearly Khaw
INTERNATIONAL GUEST SPEAKER: ASSOC PROF AKILA VISWANATHAN
Sponsored by:
The use of brachytherapy for gynecologic malignancies has evolved dramatically
in the past decades, specifically with regard to the integration of 3D imaging. An
overview of image-guided approaches and the published literature for MR- and CTbased brachytherapy will be discussed. Issues affecting cervical cancer
brachytherapy in the U.S. will be outlined. Specifically, the development of ABS
guidelines for brachytherapy will be reviewed. How guidelines have influenced
health care will be presented. Criteria for guideline versus for consensus statement
development will be detailed.
