Successful retention and compliance of patients in clinical trials are significant challenges in the arduous path to drug approval. Missing outcome data caused by patient dropout and poor compliance not only jeopardize the scientific validity of a study but also comes at a high financial cost to study sponsors.
In this case study, we’ll explore how technology and behavioral science offer potential solutions that can address these challenges through the patient-centric design of tools such as the Linkt mobile application. This case study examines retention and compliance in a multi-center, open-label clinical trial.
