Clinical trials represent the link between scientific discovery and medical effectiveness. Hundreds of innovative therapies are developed in the laboratories, but few make it past early development, if at all. Clinical trials today can cost hundreds of millions of dollars and take years to research. New clinical research starting for pharmaceuticals and medical devices is on the increase. Investigational New Drugs (IND) submissions have been growing steadily over the past several years. In order to support the increase in research, it becomes more imperative to accelerate patient recruitment and enrollment. However promising new drugs and devices may be, the research cannot move forward without enough subjects who are willing to participate and who will remain for the duration of the study.
