Case: Co-Creating Clinical Trial Design & Recruitment Strategy

Situation

The client needs to obtain the patient view and preferences on clinical trial design, especially in regard to the burden of the trial, in- and exclusion criteria and readability of consent material. The client had not previously involved patients in clinical trial design and had no structure and procedures in place for gathering patient feedback.

  2. Full review of the development plan and trial design in regard to patient relevance
  3. Gap analysis emphasizing patient-relevant aspects
  4. Discuss and challenge recruitment & retention strategy
  5. Joint session with the client’s internal team to discuss findings
