Fulfilling enrollment numbers for clinical trials and providing the required data is of utmost concern to industry. Subject selection must be accurate and swift to meet deadlines. Recruitment remains one of the most difficult aspects of clinical research and choosing sites that will produce good clinical data of truly ill patients is always hard. Literature suggests that, although private research sites often achieve enrollment numbers in a timely fashion, academic center subject selection frequently represents sicker patients with a subsequent lower placebo response. How then does industry and its partners determine the appropriate sites for a multi-center trial to achieve success?
This presentation reviews the important aspects of site selection with respect to academic medical centers, with the goal of maximizing efficiency and productivity of all those involved and increasing the probability of study success.
