Decentralized Clinical Trial Platforms  

Decentralized Clinical Trials (DCTs) are transforming the landscape of clinical research by harnessing digital technologies to facilitate remote patient participation. This patient-centric approach not only benefits participants but also ensures more inclusive and robust study results while reducing the workload for investigators. In the post-pandemic climate, a hybrid model is emerging that seamlessly integrates technology advances with traditional site workflows, creating a new era of clinical trials that harnesses the strengths of both. In a funding-constrained environment, DCT platform providers are looking to strike a balance between client satisfaction and cost reduction. They are focusing on delivering comprehensive solutions that include real-world evidence, integration with sensors and wearables, and tools dedicated to enhancing patient engagement and retention throughout the trial process.
