Accelerated Patient Recruitment for Clinical Trials: Strategy from Feasibility to Retention
The primary driver of delays and cost overruns in clinical research is slow participant enrollment. Effective Patient Recruitment for Clinical Trials must be embedded into the Global Clinical Operations strategy from the very beginning, starting with meticulous Site Selection and Feasibility. Simply listing trial centers is not enough; success requires evaluating the epidemiological landscape, tracking historical site performance, and aligning with the target patient demographics.
COD Research specializes in Accelerated Patient Recruitment by implementing multi-faceted strategies that extend beyond the investigator's office, incorporating advocacy groups, direct-to-patient referrals, and patient registries. Their strategies are designed not just to enroll patients quickly, but to enhance long-term retention through continuous guidance and support from dedicated Clinical Trial Specialists. Furthermore, strong Site Management ensures that site teams are trained on effective screening and consent procedures, facilitating ease of participation and compliance. This end-to-end focus on maximizing enrollment potential, coupled with their global reach, is a defining feature of COD Research’s approach to seamless Global Clinical Operations across all phases of development.
