Platform trials that test several companies' drugs against one shared control arm, such as I-SPY 2, Lung-MAP, GBM AGILE and STAMPEDE, are each built from scratch by determined individuals. A permanent non-profit sponsor holding the protocol, control arm, statistics and data, with a standard entry contract for companies, would cut the launch of a new platform from years to months.
A permanent, funded, non-profit organisation that acts as regulatory sponsor and operator for master protocols in which multiple companies contribute agents, on the model of QuantumLeap Healthcare Collaborative (I-SPY 2), the Lung-MAP public-private partnership, GBM AGILE and the UK's STAMPEDE. The sponsor holds the protocol, the shared control arm, the statistical engine and the data, and offers companies a standard entry contract with pre-agreed rights to use platform results for registration. Each platform today is built from scratch by heroic individuals; institutionalising the function lowers the cost and time of adding a new disease platform from years to months.
