When sponsors terminate a clinical trial early, research sites may face financial losses for preparatory or ongoing work. To mitigate this risk, contracts should explicitly guarantee payment for all work performed up to the termination date, as well as reimbursement for non-cancellable expenses such as IRB fees, recruitment advertising, and staff training. Including a wind-down clause ensures compensation for necessary closeout activities—such as patient chart reviews, final visits, and data queries. Sites may also consider negotiating a minimum payment guarantee if termination occurs within the first 6–12 months and requesting upfront payments to offset early-stage costs. These protections help ensure that early termination does not disrupt site operations or financial stability.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
