Optimizing Patient Recruitment

The goal of patient recruitment is to raise awareness of clinical trial opportunities and to encourage enrollment.

Patient recruitment is widely recognized as a key determinant of successful clinical trials. It is also recognized as the key bottleneck in the new drug development pipeline.

Why the fuss on patient recruitment? Asides from the fact that the reason for patient recruitment is to find solutions to health issues another reward is that patients benefit from these trial processes How? Patients receive more extensive diagnostic evaluation and ongoing monitoring, free medication, and laboratory services. They also benefit from continuous exposure to the most recent advances in medical treatment, and the extra time and attention from physicians and staff. Even the patients who receive a placebo feel good knowing that they contributed to a process that may yield a new therapy

For patient recruitment in clinical research in Nigeria, it is important to acknowledge that running clinical trials in Nigeria is not without challenges. There are still obstacles that must be overcome before the practice of clinical trials will be as well established as it is in developed nations. However, some compelling country characteristics suggest that sponsors who get in on the ground floor of clinical research in Nigeria will reap tremendous rewards. There are so many factors that will lead to the success of clinical studies in Nigeria. Some of these are Patient availability, the availability of regulatory processes, national infrastructure, and NGOs that are health-oriented at one’s disposal

Xcene Research is at the forefront of successful clinical research studies in Nigeria. We believe that bridging the gap in infrastructure and access to relevant facilities will lead to new opportunities. With data-driven insights and technology, Xcene broadens the identification of patients within and beyond the site’s database. We also deliver strategies to support site-based recruitment and engage directly with patients in Nigeria and Sub-Sahara Africa.

  1. I appreciate that you explained how patient recruitment helps in the process of developing new medical treatments by participating in the trial runs and evaluations while they’re being diagnosed and monitored. I imagine if you work in laboratory services or drug development, it’s important to make sure there should be diversity in your patient recruitment for better results so it would be wise to get the help of professional services. My sister wants to work in the medical field so I’ll have to inform her about this for future purposes.
