Psychiatric trials have long been among the most difficult to enroll. From treatment-resistant depression (TRD) and PTSD to cognitive and neuro disorders, sponsors are facing the same challenges over and over again:
- Narrow I/E criteria that don’t translate into real-world patients
- Sites with limited behavioral health infrastructure
- Lack of patient trust and trial awareness in psychiatric populations
- Professional patients
- Rating scales aren’t used in clinical practices
But what if recruitment didn’t have to start with a gamble?
