Solid site relationships are the backbone of successful clinical trials. Without happy, supported sites, enrollment simply cannot happen predictably or within budgetary constrains. Yet fostering deep site relationships is often overlooked because many CROs are simply unable or unwilling to put in the effort, resources, and time necessary to do so.
This task has only grown more complex in recent years.1 While historic challenges like staffing shortages, trial complexity, and issues related to site startup have intensified, they are now joined by the need to often learn and implement new technologies with little support and training.
This white paper will discuss the common challenges that impact sites’ efficiency and how strategic investment in building long-lasting site relationships benefits sponsors and sites alike. You need only ask a site which CRO they’d rather work with on a study to see the difference.
