In this free webinar, learn how Patient Concierge increases study participant's engagement and decreases dropout. Attendees will explore how Virtual Research Coordination (VRCC) can help with attracting a more diverse patient population. The featured speakers will discuss both offerings from the perspective of the patient, site and the sponsor.
TORONTO, May 22, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Patient-centricity and patient diversity are challenging goals that all clinical trial sponsors seek to attain. The ever-rising cost of patient retention in clinical trials has highlighted patient engagement and the flexibility required by the industry to meet patients where they are and make clinical trial participation easier and more customized to their needs. The webinar will present two tactics employed by PPD to address these challenges.
The Patient Concierge program focuses on 24/7 1:1 support for patients throughout the duration of the trial. This is a more personalized approach than other concierge programs and enables early identification of potential barriers that patients may face when continuing with the study. Moreover, sites can focus on patient care instead of non-medical administrative tasks.
Virtual Research Coordination Centers or decentralized sites, another tactic, decrease geographic barriers to studies for participants of diverse populations, including the elderly, those living in remote areas, or ethnic minorities currently underrepresented in traditional onsite designs. The inclusion of flexible remote and televisits facilitates higher participation as it reduces the need for family/caregiver assistance, time off work and childcare assistance.
Join this webinar to learn how patient-centricity approaches like personalized support and flexible remote options enable early identification of potential barriers and facilitate higher patient participation of diverse populations.
Join experts from PPD, Keyur Patel, RPh, Associate Director, Medical Communications; Kathryn Dorshimer, Associate Director, Medical Communications; and Sailesh Kaura, Senior Director, Clinical Trials Contact Center, for the live webinar on Monday, June 12, 2023, at 10am EDT (4pm CEST/EU-Central).
