Patient recruitment and retention is crucial for the success of any clinical trial. Identification of eligible patients ensures both timely execution of the trial and avoids selection bias.

ClinTec's team of Local Enrolment Specialists have been trained to offer tailored support services to help sites cope with the challenges often faced in reaching recruitment targets.

Needs Assessment

By identifying recruitment challenges early and implementing creative solutions, we can tailor our enrolment plan to the exact requirements of the site. This is achieved by close communication with project teams, protocol review, identification of the target patient population, awareness of study specific enrolment criteria and realisation of recruitment goals.

Message Assessment

We work to create a message that will attract prospective patients by first identifying the target population and tailoring the recruitment package to this demographic.

Patient Outreach

Site-focused enrolment plans, outreach programs and healthcare professional outreach, supported by media and in-surgery advertising, all help to reach recruitment goals. ClinTec’s Local Enrolment Specialists will advise on and implement support methods which will be of the greatest benefit to study sites.

Pre-Screening Activities

ClinTec assists in pre-screening using tools such as communication with potential research subjects, assessment of patient medical histories and referral of pre-qualified callers to the nearest research site.
