Analyzing 1,000+ Study Startup Records For Recruitment Performance With Advarra Study Collaboration

Recruiting participants for your clinical trial is crucial for assessing the efficacy of your treatment or device, meeting operational timelines, ensuring profitability, and ultimately aiding patients in need. Despite its importance, zero or under-accruing trials remain a pervasive issue in the industry.

To address these challenges, many research organizations heavily invest in recruitment strategies, with approximately 40% of the annual U.S. pharma research budget (around $1.89 billion) dedicated to recruitment efforts. Late-stage development studies alone average over $2,200 in recruitment costs per patient. Research sponsors, CROs, sites, and recruitment vendors continuously strive to overcome persistent patient recruitment hurdles.

However, it can be challenging to attribute tangible recruitment results to specific strategies across your trial portfolio. This overview highlights real research programs at various stages of the recruitment process and demonstrates the impact of Advarra’s Longboat Platform across multiple therapeutic areas and sponsors.
