ClinTrialApp Introduces ClinTrialConnect - Patient Engagement Technology
Long-awaited feature completely refines how patients engage with clinical trials.
DENVER, CO, February 17, 2017 (Newswire.com) - ClinTrialApp, a mobile technology company that centralizes clinical research for clinical research centers, released a much-anticipated feature - ClinTrialConnect, the world's first standardized clinical trial dashboard for patients.
“We are pleased to announce, ClinTrialConnect is our first step forward in patient-facing technologies,” said Rob Bohacs, ClinTrialApp CEO. “It was designed to accelerate drug development time lines by helping improve patient enrollment and retention into clinical trials. We believe ClinTrialConnect can increase patient enrollment into clinical trials by 25% to 50%. While that is a bold objective, we believe it’s just the beginning.”
ClinTrialConnect was created because nearly 80% of clinical trials miss time lines (94% within oncology) due to challenges in patient recruitment. While there are complexities involved with patients participating in clinical trials, ClinTrialConnect focuses on helping patients identify and enroll into clinical trials that are available at their current care environment.
ClinTrialConnect is a digital dashboard that allows patients access as they consider clinical trial participation. It allows patients to access an online directory of information about their disease, how clinical trials work, background information on sponsors and investigational drugs, as well as study documents. ClinTrialConnect works as their communication dashboard with physicians and family members, which helps eliminate any miscommunication between the team and any family members who are most likely involved in the decision-making process. The system accommodates 14 languages to meet the language needs of patients worldwide.
ClinTrialConnect is building a global disease registry to allow patients to access clinical trials for not only their current medical condition,but also stay informed about upcoming clinical trials. By doing so, these patients can choose to have a clinical trial as continuous treatment option.
