Clinical research succeeds when protocols prioritize the patient experience. Community-based trials are proving that bringing research closer to patients removes barriers, improves access and creates opportunities for more inclusive participation.
In this webinar, the featured speakers will share real-world data and experiences showing how community-based models deliver results. You’ll learn how localized engagement strategies — such as community-site networks and mobile visits — are improving enrollment, strengthening retention and building trust with patients in their own communities.
Attendees will see key metrics on diversity and retention, hear lessons learned from a Principal Investigator in the field and gain practical insights for implementing patient-centered approaches across therapeutic areas. Whether you’re a sponsor, CRO or site professional, this session will highlight why community-based models aren’t just innovative — they’re essential for expanding the reach of research and advancing health equity for all.
Register for this webinar to gain practical lessons learned on improving enrollment, retention and inclusivity through community-based trials.
