At Galen, we solve recruitment challenges by taking a consistent, disciplined approach to understanding enrollment barriers for each study sites – leading to the development of tailored, cost-effective strategies that drive results.
APPROACH
Planning
Galen examines all of the individual variables in the study enrollment equation – the research sites, the study coordinators, and, most importantly, the patients. We look at the treatment algorithm for the condition and develop compelling messages that resonate with the study population. We then evaluate patient outreach opportunities across all markets, optimizing target audience reach and cost-effectiveness.
Implementation
Galen oversees each step of the recruitment campaign – from media campaign execution, to patient support group outreach, to distributing education materials, to engaging coordinators throughout the study. Our day-to-day involvement in all aspects of the recruitment campaign ensures timely and consistent execution for each study site.
Optimization
Like our clients, we have a passion for data. The moment a recruitment campaign begins, we begin tracking a range of metrics – response rates to different outreach initiatives, reasons for subject disqualification, inquiry to referral ratio, and more. Data is gathered in real-time and analyzed from multiple perspectives, ensuring that recruitment trends are quickly identified and outreach tactics are continually optimized.
