Step 2
Think About What PublicationPlanners Have Learned From
the CME Experience?
![Page 13: Publication Best Practices: An 8-Step Approach to Quality ......Common Elements of Multiple Guidance • Publish primary data acknowledging negative and positive trial results •](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042916/5f56de2fd5912167276d93db/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Key Learnings

– Address known clinical/educational gaps
– Focus on improving clinical outcomes
– Be transparent, compliant, and of high quality

Goals
• Align publication need and developmental process with the need and process that led to discovery and development of the compound in the first place
• Publications should be seen as an extension of the scientific process, not an adjunct
