Vial welcomes Dr. Luke Nordquist of XCancer and UCC to Vial's Oncology CRO Advisory Board

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Vial is welcoming Dr. Luke Nordquist to Vial's Oncology Scientific Advisory Board. Dr. Nordquist is the latest addition to the board after Dr. Arati Rao, Dr. Antoni Ribas, Dr. Arvind Chaudhry, and Dr. Guru Sonpavde joined earlier this year.

The Vial Oncology CRO aims to reimagine clinical trials by delivering faster and higher quality trials through a powerful technology platform and operational excellence. Vial has worked closely with Oncology sponsors to understand their pain points in running trials and has created the CRO to be optimized for the unique needs of the Oncology clinical trial market.

Vial's enrollment playbook offers a seamless web-based site start-up, a dedicated recruitment team, EMR filtering capabilities, and a centralized pre-screen team to ensure recruitment timelines are met. In addition, Vial's tech-enabled trial management system integrates eSource, ePRO, EDC and CTMS systems into a seamless operating system so the CRO can enable trials to be run at their greatest efficiency and deliver higher quality data.

"My mission when I started as an Oncologist was to advance therapeutic developments in order to serve patients. XCancer and UCC were started to deliver on this mission. I'm excited to advise the Vial Oncology CRO team on the pain points that PIs and Oncology sites face in order to build an Oncology CRO that reimagines clinical trials through better technology and a new model centered around speed and quality," said Dr. Nordquist on joining the board.

Luke Nordquist, MD, FACP is the CEO of the XCancer Research Network and founded the Urology Cancer Center & GU Research Network. XCancer enables, oversees, and helps support clinical trials in community Oncology centers across the US. XCancer has worked with over 40 community cancer centers — the network has supported the approval of several novel Oncology therapeutics.
