Clinical Trial Recruitment Services for Contract Research Organizations

Our goal behind every clinical trial recruitment campaign is simple: Find the right patients to participate in clinical trials. AutoCruitment helps you achieve this goal in record time.

We accelerate patient enrollment through our clinical trial recruitment services for Contract Research Organizations (CROs). The AutoCruitment team acts as a CRO extension, informing recruitment strategies and contributing to enrollment modeling and diversity objectives.

With expertise in over 120 conditions across 700+ studies, AutoCruitment is a trusted recruitment solution in the life sciences industry.

Today’s Challenges for CROs

For CROs, identifying and enrolling patients is a complex task. Patient populations are already limited, and traditional recruitment strategies rarely meet the population necessary to meet enrollment goals. What’s more, clinical project managers and sponsors often see patient recruitment as an additional cost—not an essential element of the study.

AutoCruitment’s experienced professionals address these challenges using a tailored approach that has various benefits.

  • Reduced Enrollment Timelines

    Lengthy recruitment timelines delay your clients’ go-to-market plans, reducing overall satisfaction. When you speed up recruitment, you strengthen your client relationships—and that means more repeat business.

  • Fixed-Price Models

    Because our services efficiently connect highly qualified potential patients with sites, you can offer your clients greater certainty and confidence in your enrollment commitments. This certainty allows you to employ an attractive fixed-price model.

  • Reduced Dependency on Site-Based Recruitment Strategies

    With AutoCruitment, there’s no need to rely solely on site-based recruitment efforts. Our direct-to-patient approach uses digital media to put your clinical research opportunities directly in front of interested participants.

  • Compelling Proposals

    While you may not be an expert in every therapeutic area, our experience is vast. We can help your clinical research recruiters expand into therapeutic areas where they may have minimal knowledge, opening you up to more contracts.

  • Stronger Sponsor Relationships

    The better your relationship with a study’s sponsor, the more likely you will receive future contracts. Thanks to our complementary strategies, you can forge even stronger partnerships.

Working With AutoCruitment: What to Expect

Above all, our objective is to make life easier for clinical research organizations, sponsors, and research sites. We approach this goal in various ways.

Here’s what you can look forward to when you partner with AutoCruitment.

Direct-to-Patient Digital Recruitment

Every recruitment effort begins with finding participants. We employ an effective digital media strategy to reach the largest number of interested candidates. Our hyper-targeted online campaigns reach potential participants with a demonstrated interest in the conditions we recruit for.

Integrated Services

All our patient recruitment services and resources are fully integrated into CRO study teams. As such, we work seamlessly together, efficiently and effectively pushing clinical development forward. This comprehensive approach improves the experience for every clinical research associate.

Patient & Site Engagement

We constantly engage with both parties as part of our site and patient care commitment. For patients, that means routine support calls and education. Our site engagement specialists are dedicated to assisting sites in moving patients through the recruitment funnel, optimizing internal processes, and ultimately reducing site burden.

Sophisticated Online Screening

At AutoCruitment, we recognize that clinical research associates are looking solely for high-quality, motivated patients. As such, we run all potential participants through an in-depth online screening process. Our custom-built screeners account for the study’s inclusion and exclusion criteria, ensuring that only highly qualified patients move forward.

Patient Management Portal

Once potential participants express interest by filling out a study-specific online screener, they are funneled into our sophisticated, secure, and user-friendly Patient Management Portal. This communications and data management platform is personalized to allow for patient management, scheduling, and communication throughout the enrollment process and beyond.

Enhanced Qualification Services

Our custom screener is just the first step. For studies that require additional verification, we offer an optional service where clinical professionals, such as Registered Nurses or Patient Engagement Specialists, further assess participant eligibility.

This additional screening ensures that every patient fully meets your study’s criteria. However, it’s important to note that in most cases, patients are referred after completing only the online screener.

The Benefits of AutoCruitment’s Clinical Trial Recruitment Services for CROs

When you team up with AutoCruitment, you enjoy a wealth of industry-leading advantages that ultimately benefit your clients, including:

Volume Recruitment

Unlike other recruitment agencies, AutoCruitment doesn’t use enrollment revenue to cover the cost of targeted ads. This means we can run ads across multiple digital channels and keep them live throughout the recruitment process, ensuring we reach thousands of interested candidates and continuously send those who qualify to your site. This tactic allows you to unlock access to patients far beyond the scope of your clinic—without any additional time or effort.

End-to-End Technology

State-of-the-art technology is part of the AutoCruitment difference. Our sophisticated screening measures and AI-powered approach to EMR Capture and Intelligence, and Patient Management Portal have streamlined the recruitment procedure throughout the typical trial lifecycle.

Patient Engagement

Because patients are the heart of any clinical trial, we communicate and collaborate with them throughout the recruitment and enrollment process. Our dedicated patient advocates support and inform participants at every step, assisting them with their questions, keeping them updated, and ultimately maintaining their interest in your study.

Site Engagement

Clinical research associates have plenty on their plates in an active trial. We work to alleviate any associated burdens by frequently engaging with professionals at the clinical trial site. With our support, studies run smoothly.

Project Management

The AutoCruitment team approaches your clinical trials through the lens of project management, making sure every aspect of the initiative is accounted for. Our data-driven approach empowers fast decision-making, allowing us to optimize recruitment campaign results as the project unfolds.

Enhanced Qualification

Your clinical study deserves the best possible matches. To further ensure only the most qualified patients arrive at your site, we offer an optional second-line phone screening that filters out ineligible patients and helps the perfect candidates move forward.
