We surveyed managers and directors of clinical operations, project managers, lead\/senior CRAs, and patient recruitment specialists from sponsor companies, and ended up with a behind the scenes look at how they tackle patient recruitment challenges.<\/p>\n<p>In this post, I\u2019ll examine the use of enrollment plans and strategies, working with sites, and measuring the performance of recruitment efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Our survey found:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>About 55 percent of sponsors develop their own formal recruitment plans, while 33 percent rely on a CRO or a patient recruitment company. The balance rely on investigative sites to develop plans.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Most determine a site\u2019s enrollment capability by reviewing past performance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>The majority said they expect enrollment to begin within three months (with most indications), and most select backup sites in the event original sites don\u2019t perform.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Despite significant advances in technology, most sponsors (39 percent) use traditional recruitment channels, such as printed educational and promotional tools, less than 10 percent use the internet, and only 6 percent use TV and radio.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Many sponsors don\u2019t track the performance of their recruitment strategies, with most reporting that they lack the time or resources to do so.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With only 12.7 percent telling us they rely on sites to enroll and develop recruitment plans, we are seeing the majority of sponsors taking a hands-on approach with enrollment. However, with recruitment and enrollment being key factors to delays in the completion of trials, neglecting to track the performance of recruiting strategies leaves a clear opportunity to refine recruitment efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Imperial\u2019s full research brief, with more information from our study of sponsor attitudes and behaviors is now available.
