Clinical trials represent an arduous step in the drug development process and are crucial to understanding the safety and efficacy profiles of novel therapeutic interventions. As these trials are prone to delays, and can even fail altogether, they impose immense financial pressure on sponsors. Amongst several known challenges, patient recruitment is considered to be one of the rate-limiting steps when it comes to getting drugs to the market. It is estimated that 80% of clinical trials do not meet their designated patient enrolment deadlines. In fact, around 37% of research sites fail to meet their subject accrual goals, while more than 10% don’t even enroll a single patient. In addition, retaining patients is also a matter of concern, considering that the approximate dropout rate across clinical studies is around 30%. Delays in product launch, due to inability of the sponsors to recruit/retain patients, are highly common and are estimated to result in an average loss of USD 8 million per day in opportunity costs, for a blockbuster drug.

The abovementioned challenges have led several players in the pharmaceutical industry to outsource their patient recruitment-related needs to capable, specialty service providers. Employing contract service providers has been shown to expedite the patient recruitment process. Such service providers employ a variety of outreach methods, such as social media, mobile technologies, electronic health records (EHRs) and real-world evidence (RWE), and, over time, have attained a vital role in the successful conduct of clinical research. Although some big pharma players carry out patient recruitment in-house, the growing complexity of clinical trials and demand for niche patient populations for studies evaluating orphan drugs / personalized medicines is likely to prompt more developer companies to outsource various aspects of their clinical research-related operations in the foreseen future. In fact, the market has recently witnessed the establishment of several partnerships, which include agreements between study sponsors and patient recruitment firms (outsourcing deals) and partnerships between stakeholders aimed to combine their respective services portfolios related to patient recruitment and retention (service alliances). This niche services industry has also witnessed some consolidation as multiple smaller players have been acquired by more established entities, in an effort to expand geographical reach.

The ‘Patient Recruitment and Retention Services, 2019-2030’ report offers a comprehensive study of the current scenario and future potential of the players providing patient enrollment and retention services. The study features an in-depth analysis, highlighting the capabilities of the various stakeholders in this domain. In addition to other elements, the study includes:


  • A detailed assessment of the current market landscape of companies offering patient recruitment and retention services, including information on over 10 types of patient outreach methods employed, types of services offered ([A] patient recruitment (including pre-screening and Institutional Review Board (IRB) / Ethics Committee (EC) submission), [B] patient retention (considering various strategies, such as the use of study-branded gifts, study-branded reminders, providing education and support materials, reimbursement programs, transportation programs, patient engagement web site, patient reconnect programs, mobile applications to track patient engagement and others) and [C] other associated services (including site identification and selection,study feasibility / protocol development, project management, clinical trial monitoring and other services), year of establishment, geographical location, and size of company. The chapter also covers an analysis of the geographical reach and therapeutic expertise of service providers, along with details on the payment model, patient recruitment platforms/technologies used, and the various certifications/accreditations awarded by regulatory bodies.
  • An analysis of the most active regions (in terms of patient recruitment activity), based on the locations of headquarters of companies engaged in this domain, featuring schematic world map representations that highlight key hubs across the globe.
  • An insightful 2X2 representation of the results of a competitiveness analysis of various service providers (segregated into three peer groups based on their employee count (small-sized (1-50 employees), mid-sized (50-200 employees) and large (>200 employees)), highlighting capable players in this domain, based on their respective capabilities.
  • Comprehensive profiles of patient recruitment and retention service providers, featuring information on the location of their headquarters, year of establishment, patient recruitment services/platforms portfolio, recent developments, and a comprehensive future outlook.
  • An analysis of the partnerships that have been established in the recent past, covering outsourcing agreements, service alliances, acquisitions, joint ventures, mergers, technology licensing and development agreements, and other forms of partnerships.
  • A review of emerging trends in the industry, including the use of social media, mobile technologies, EHRs and RWE, to overcome the challenges associated with patient recruitment and retention.

One of the key objectives of the report was to estimate the existing market size and review the potential growth opportunities for patient recruitment service providers over the coming decade. Based on several parameters, we have provided an informed estimate of the likely evolution of this market in the short to mid-term and long term, for the period 2019-2030. In addition, we have segmented the future opportunity across [A] therapeutic area (oncology, infectious diseases, cardiovascular diseases, CNS disorders, respiratory disorders, metabolic disorders, and others), [B] steps in patient recruitment process (pre-screening and screening), [C] phases of development (phase I, phase II, phase III and phase IV), and [D] different global regions (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and rest of the world). In order to account for the uncertainties associated with some of the key parameters and to add robustness to our model, we have provided three market forecast scenarios portraying the conservative, base and optimistic tracks of the industry’s evolution.

The opinions and insights presented in this study were influenced by discussions conducted with multiple stakeholders in this domain. The report features detailed transcripts of interviews held with the following individuals (in alphabetical order of company names):
