Medable Inc. and CVS Health (NYSE: CVS) today announced a collaboration to expand clinical trial access and engagement for patients at select MinuteClinic™ locations via Medable’s clinical trials software platform. CVS Health Clinical Trial Services™ will manage the relationship.
The collaboration combines Medable’s software platform with CVS Health’s community reach and experienced MinuteClinic providers to effectively deliver clinical trials in a way that improves patient access, engagement and retention to advance research effectiveness.
Despite the importance of clinical trials, less than four percent of Americans participate in clinical studies. Additionally, 30 percent of participants drop out before study completion, and 80 percent of studies do not meet enrollment deadlines. While industry efforts are making progress in closing the gap in African-American clinical trial participation, Asian, Hispanic and Latino groups also continue to be significantly and consistently underrepresented.
