Case Study: Assistant Study Coordinator

Therapeutic Area:  Ophthalmology
Indication:  Dry AMD

  • Needed 180 patients to complete device study that had begun more than 30 months prior
    • After 30 months, sites were experiencing study fatigue and were underperforming
  • ICTS identified 6 primary sites to assist with ASCs doing on site reviews and in-community recruitment for an extremely restrictive study
  • Before we began work it took more than 25 referrals or internal reviews to attain one randomized patient complete to visit number 3 (our randomization endpoint for enrollment goals).
  • Assistant study coordinators reviewed charts for prescreening and conducted extensive referral building for the PIs in referring physicians offices
  • Finished enrollment in 7 months. 
  • Total ASC on site time was 20 hours per week for 6 weeks. 
    • ICTS management did follow-through and worked with study management to ensure delivery of randomization goals.
