Patient Recruitment Impacts Clinical Trial Timelines
We work exclusively to solve patient recruitment and retention challenges. When your clinical trial is delayed by slow subject enrollment, you need to quickly identify the issues impacting patient recruitment to find the best solutions. Here at Healthcare Communications Group, we are dedicated to providing you with excellence in patient recruitment strategies and services to improve outcomes - regardless of the clinical trial obstacles you face. Our patient recruitment philosophy is that every study, like every subject, is unique.
Subject enrollment.
How can we help you solve your clinical trial challenges?
The day-to-day business of clinical trial management
may revolve around screen fails, consents and randomizations.
It may focus on protocol criteria, competitive trials,
and all of the things that impact site motivation and
Investigator capabilities. But ultimately, it’s
about subjects. And there, you will find the answers.
Real people.
Our focus is on the trial participants who may
be willing to make small sacrifices in return for the
greater good of people. At HCG, we never lose sight of the fact
that these are the people whom your patient recruitment
efforts must touch and motivate. Our years of experience in
developing innovative programs produces outcomes that
have helped pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device
companies bring new treatments to market. Yet, we never
forget that every subject is important and that no gesture
is too small to make a difference.
A unique consultative process.
HCG’s feasibility and analysis processes help
get to the bottom of patient recruitment challenges.
We comprehensively identify and research all factors
that might contribute to an enrollment shortfall so
that we can establish an individualized path toward
resolution. Protocol challenges, competitive trials,
scientific interest, regulatory and IRB issues, disease
state dynamics, psychographic factors, and patient perceptions,
as well as the effectiveness of your prior recruitment
initiatives, can all have an impact on enrollment forecasts.
Utilizing our database of prior trial media performance,
HCG places special attention on Investigator site selection
and on building Coordinator relationships: This is truly
the heart of the subject enrollment solution.
