Episode: 45 - Doug Bain on Streamlining Clinical Trials
Episode 45
Tuesday, 2 December, 2025
Doug Bain, founder and consulting partner of ClinFlo, discusses his proposed regulatory blueprint for digital trials in the latest episode of The Scope of Things podcast. With host Deborah Borfitz, Bain delves into his strategy for turning 21 CFR Part 11 into a more practical regulation that streamlines rather than bogs down clinical trials, what would qualify someone to take on the role as a trusted third party (and what makes them trustworthy), and the new FDA administration’s modernization plan aligns—or squares—with his ideas. Plus, the latest news on a tool for detecting fraud and sampling bias in decentralized trials, technology for identifying potentially dangerous drugs before trials start, a novel women’s health and menopause initiative, a regenerative therapy for spinal cord injury, and a new oral treatment for preventing dementia.
