2023 - The Art of Decentralizing Pediatric Rare Disease Studies: Clinical Trials Suited for Daily Life

Pediatric rare disease trials combine rarity of disease with a restricted and geographically-dispersed population of vulnerable subjects for research, creating unique challenges for study design and execution. Recruitment is challenging, as patients, parents and caregivers need to juggle school schedules, work responsibilities and family obligations to accommodate study participation.
Incorporating decentralized clinical trial (DCT) strategies can help sponsors attract patients and increase access, enrollment and retention by limiting site visits and facilitating participation for those who might not otherwise be able — or willing — to travel to distant sites or specialized centers.
