Do you have questions about the EMA – Health Canada joint review process? MMS leaders break it down in our recent Perspectives article with four main takeaways and a discussion on how efficient the combined pathway really is for global sponsors.

We’ve seen as much as 70% of content overlap existed between the two submissions! Joint review like this can reduce redundancy and significantly accelerate timelines.

If you work on global submissions or plan to target both Europe and Canada, this overview helps you understand what’s changed, what works, and what you need to watch out for.

With so much buzz around AI, it’s no surprise that sponsors are asking: “How are you using AI?” However, the better question might be: “How are you using AI to help me?”

At MMS, we approach these conversations by sharing perspective on where AI is currently valuable, like speeding up medical writing, anonymizing data, or supporting video review, for instance. We also make sure to discuss where the AI is still evolving, such as CRF development or automated statistical plan generation.

Biometrics is one of our leading growth areas in 2025 and it’s clear why! Our team recently released a webinar exploring how specialized data strategies designed by biometric, statistical, and data science experts can support sponsors in de‑risking development and advancing complex clinical programs.

The future of CRO partnerships demands a new conversation about value. MMS Vice President of Commercial Operations, Sandy Robbins, will take the stage at the Clinical Outsourcing Group CRO Summit today to challenge the status quo in CRO compensation models.

The keynote, “Reimagining CRO Compensation Models for Industry Advancement,” will explore how traditional procurement-driven models often misalign incentives and create inefficiencies.

Sandy will discuss:
✔️ How value-based pricing and outcome-linked incentives can reshape collaboration
✔️ The psychological barriers that limit innovation at large CROs
✔️ What sponsors can do to drive better results through smarter compensation strategies

By shifting the conversation from hourly rates to outcomes and impact, Sandy will make a compelling case for rethinking how clinical research partnerships are structured.
