Recruitment and Retention in Global Clinical Research

Recruitment and retention of participants are central to the success of global clinical trials. Major multinational studies frequently experience delays or fail due to under-enrollment and poor retention, highlighting the necessity for sophisticated, globalized recruitment services.

Recruitment is Critical to The Success of Global Clinical Trials:

Direct Impact on Timelines and ROI: 86% of international clinical trials fail to meet recruitment targets within planned timelines, causing delays in drug development and increased operational costs.

Data Power and Validity: Underpowered studies due to inadequate enrollment or high dropout rates weaken results and may limit regulatory approval.

Global Diversity and Real-World Relevance: Trials lacking geographic and demographic diversity produce less generalizable findings, which can impede both regulatory success and health equity.

Why Global Recruitment Partners Are Essential

  • Access to Diverse Populations: Global recruitment partners enable targeting across regions and underserved groups, strengthening trial diversity and scientific impact.
  • Expedited Enrollment: Leveraging broad international networks and advanced technology, they accelerate participant enrollment and minimize costly delays.
  • Regulatory Expertise: They provide crucial guidance on navigating complex, region-specific regulatory requirements in multi-country clinical research.
  • Multimodal Outreach and Retention: Their expertise in digital, community, and provider engagement drives better patient participation and delivers culturally attuned support for improved retention.
