Randomized controlled trials make rigorous clinical research that advances medical science as a whole and improves patient outcomes across many demographics, conditions, and treatments possible. The landscape of modern medicine would look entirely different without them. There might not be an effective antibiotic treatment for tuberculosis, for example, or the link between smoking and lung… Continue reading Breaking Down the Importance of Patient Recruitment and Retention in Clinical Trials
A clinical trial is only as good as its patient population. So, if prospective patients aren’t aware of potential trials or participation criteria, they can’t access the potential benefits. Therefore, patient recruitment is one of the most essential aspects of clinical trials. Crucially, your patient recruiting marketing strategy determines whether those efforts are successful. Clinical… Continue reading Patient Recruitment Marketing: Direct-To-Consumer Methods via Traditional
Clinical research provides the foundation for improving patient care and producing life-saving treatments for conditions and diseases from lung cancer to gestational diabetes. However, this research cannot be tested, perfected, or applied without clinical trials. All too often, clinical trials fizzle without successful patient recruitment. Indeed, patient recruitment remains one of the research industry’s primary… Continue reading How Autocruitment Brings Visibility and Success Into Patient Recruitment Funnel
Two factors fundamentally affect clinical trial success: Patient recruitment and patient retention. Poor performance in either area prevents Contract Research Organizations (CROs), trial sites, and sponsors from collecting the results required to meet drug or treatment approval criteria. To succeed, life sciences and digital health companies must familiarize themselves with several challenges currently constraining clinical… Continue reading Managing Challenges in Recruitment and Retention of Clinical Trial Subjects
Successful clinical trials are essential for advancing medical treatments and, ultimately, improving patient care.
