Cast a wider net for clinical trial enrollment.

You spend a lot of time (and money) working with recruitment companies, finding eligible patients for your clinical trials. Yet recruitment continues to be a challenge.

Clinical Trial Recruitment Challenges by the Numbers:

  • 0.2% Less than 0.2% of physicians surveyed actively refer patients to clinical trials.
  • 71% – The number of people worldwide who have not participated in a clinical trial that say they would be willing to. 

But what if there were a way to get patients – qualified patients – to come to you?

Our model works because it flips the usual clinical trial recruitment method on its head. We don’t find patients for clinical trials. We find clinical trials for patients.

How does it work?

Step 1 – Patients fill out a simple online questionnaire about their health condition.

Step 2 – Our AI-based technology returns a list of clinical trials for which the patient is eligible based on their questionnaire responses.

Step 3 – Patients choose which trials from their search results they are interested in, and give consent for us to contact the clinical trial sponsor directly.

Step 4 – Trials sites are provided with a list of pre-screened patients who are more likely to qualify for their trial than typical self-referred patients, and can decide how to proceed from there.

Today, Sparrow Search supports patients with prostate cancer. We plan to expand to help patients seeking clinical trials for many other conditions.

The Benefits of the Sparrow Search Approach:

  • Reduce recruitment costs by cutting down number of unqualified referrals
  • Reduce site burden from having to screen unqualified patients
  • Complete enrollment more quickly so your therapies can advance in the clinic
