Learn Innovative Strategies to Tap into this Naïve Patient Population
Currently, more than 130 Phase II/III industry-sponsored rheumatoid arthritis (RA) studies are competing for patients and site resources, including an increasing number of biosimilar studies. But 90% of RA patients (approximately 67 million) are not participating in clinical studies. How can our industry tap into this study naïve population and improve recruitment efficiencies?
In this webinar, we discuss how a multifaceted approach is required to enhance recruitment activities and impact results. Join our informative webinar to learn about the current challenges in this competitive trial landscape and gain new insights on how to enhance patient engagement for RA studies.
