Strategy: Equity-Driven Design

Standard CROs focus on the how of logistics, but we focus on the who of the burden. We don’t just fill slots; we ensure your data reflects the people most impacted by the disease

  • Burden-Matching: We align recruitment targets with real-world epidemiology, moving beyond "convenience sampling" to true representation.
  • Protocol Optimization: We review trial designs to identify "invisible barriers” that disproportionately block Black participants.
  • Gap Analysis: We identify why previous recruitment efforts failed and build a strategic bridge to the communities you’ve missed.

Recruitment: The "Transcreation" Method

We move beyond passive digital ads that go ignored. We “Transcreate” protocols into the language of the community, connecting where they live, work, pray, play, and slay.

  • Cultural Translation: We don't just translate words; we translate intent. We turn complex scientific jargon into "Kitchen Table" conversations that build trust.
  • Boots on the Ground: Our recruitment happens in the community
  • Content That Resonates: We produce high-impact, culturally relevant commutation that treats the patient as a hero in the search for a cure.

Navigation: 24/7/365 Concierge Care

We offer personal access to the “Triple Threat” team, pre-emptively managing the social determinants of health that others ignore.

  • Barrier Removal: We solve for the "Why Not?"—handling transportation, childcare, and time-off-work hurdles.
  • Emotional Fortitude: Our navigators provide the "hand-holding" required to combat medical mistrust, ensuring patients feel seen, not just "studied."
  • Provider Bridging: We act as the liaison between the patient, their community doctor, and the trial site to ensure seamless, coordinated care.

Retention: Relationship-First Retention

By building genuine relationships rather than relying on automated apps, we achieve up to a significant increase in retention.

  • Trust Over Tech: While others use "nudge" apps, we use human connection. We check in when things are going well, not just when a dose is due.
  • Data Integrity: High retention means cleaner data and faster FDA submissions. We protect your investment by keeping our patients engaged.

How We Measure Success

At Navigating Trials, we provide a robust set of metrics that move beyond standard recruitment to focus on data integrity and health equity. 

Recruitment & Equity Metrics
  • Actual trial recruitment numbers
  • Navigator Interventions: Volume and types of “24/7/365” interactions provided by the Triple Threat team to resolve barriers like fear or logistical hurdles.
  • Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) Resolution: Tracking the number of participants who remained in a trial because their transportation, childcare, or mistrust issues were managed in real-time.
  • Site Activation Speed: Metrics on how quickly a “Proven Provider” from your curated network was able to reach enrollment targets
  • Trust Sentiment Analysis: Qualitative data regarding community perceptions of the sponsor and the trial before and after the “Navigating Trials” engagement.
