Patient-centric clinical trials are designed with the patient's needs and preferences in mind, with the aim of improving the patient experience and increasing patient enagagement in clinical research. In a patient-centric trial, the patient is considered a partner in the research process, rather than just a subject.
Here are some key features of patient-centric clinical trials:
Patient engagement: Patients are involved in the design of the trial and have a say in the research questions, outcomes, and methods. Patient representatives may serve on the trial's steering committee or advisory board.
Patient-centered outcomes: The trial measures outcomes that matter most to patients, such as quality of life, symptom relief, and functional status. Patient-reported outcomes, such as surveys or questionnaires, may be used to gather data directly from patients.
Patient access: The trial is designed to be accessible to patients, with consideration given to factors such as geography, transportation, and scheduling. The trial may be conducted at multiple sites or remotely, and patient travel and lodging expenses may be covered.
Patient education: Patients are provided with clear and concise information about the trial, including the purpose, risks, and benefits, and are given ample opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback. Educational materials may be available in multiple languages and formats.
Patient support: Patients are provided with emotional and practical support throughout the trial, including access to counseling services, support groups, and other resources. The trial may also provide reimbursement for additional healthcare costs not covered by insurance.
By incorporating these features into clinical trial design, patient-centric trials aim to improve recruitment and retention, increase patient satisfaction, and produce more meaningful and relevant results.
