Key Points

  • Involving MSLs and subject matter experts early in the drug development process can significantly enhance trial design, patient recruitment, and overall clinical strategy.
  • MSLs provide critical insights and establish valuable relationships with KOLs and HCPs, which can accelerate trial accrual and improve the quality of the clinical data collected.
  • A strategic framework for involving MSLs should include scalable deployment, prioritization of key territories, and a consistent global approach to ensure alignment and maximize impact throughout the product lifecycle.
