Patient Recruitment Collective

A global recruitment network powering more efficient, effective trial enrollment

Citeline Connect was founded on the industry’s first Patient Recruitment Collective – a growing network of 100+ precontracted organizations with reach to unique and diverse patient populations. By working collaboratively via a central platform, we can match and qualify more participants to clinical trials worldwide.

Connecting partners and clinical trial sponsors

A ‘one-to-many’ approach connects partners and sponsors

When you’re not limited to the number of partners or sponsors you work with, it becomes easier for eligible participants to find and enroll in a trial. Open more channels for new patients to discover and learn more before taking the next steps to join a clinical trial through Citeline Connect’s Patient Recruitment Collective.

For partners

Broaden your exposure by working with many sponsors at one time. Expand and optimize the funnel for the people you reach by providing a seamless patient-to-site journey. Easily measure performance and optimize the channels and tactics you use to recruit.

For sponsors

Drive highly qualified referrals worldwide by crowdsourcing trial enrollment through 90+ diverse, precontracted partners – all through one platform. Streamline the journey into a trial and manage all vendors, referrals and sites through a central platform to proactively address risk.
