I’m glad to see that there is a forum for sites to discuss site operations

What techniques are you using now to find studies?

Quote from Jeanette on May 6, 2022, 12:46 am

I can't speak from personal experience yet, but I recently heard of this new company and I really like their website. They seem to be very much on the site side in terms of matching studies - and (reportedly, someone call me out if I am wrong) no cost to the research site. I definitely recommend checking out their website and seeing what they are about.

Good luck in your search. With so much discussion of the shortages in PIs, I wish there was a better way to match sites to studies. The CRO can be a big barrier to newer sites. Smaller pharma companies might be an optimal gateway to consider. (Risks with small/new pharma too - which would be another discussion.)

Have you tried an RSS feed with Clinical trials.gov ?

Our site has Teams. I was able to set up a bit that coughs out newly posted studies for whatever search criteria I need.

On the Scale of Existential Pain of Intersecting yet Divergent Tech, it was only, like, a 2.

+1 for Inato. Kerlo seems ok too. Definitely set up an RSS feed for CT.gov. Schmooze every MSL you can find. Email a shit load of people every day. You have to blast every possible angle.

It's so stupid that the industry works this way.

Don't forget to be candid with your PIs. They get a ton of opportunities e-mailed to them and they generally just delete them. Make sure they forward the opportunities to you, even if they are not interested.

This is underrated. They often already have relationships they can leverage and may not realize it. Lean in.
