Successful recruitment for a clinical trial begins long before the first participant is ever enrolled. Researchers often find themselves vying for eligible participants and frequently may not consider the impact of competing trials. The Recruitment Innovation Center (RIC) has developed a Competing Trial Tool (CTT), a digital interface that allows users to search key study criteria against information captured in the clinicaltrials.gov database. 

Sarah Nelson, MS,  and  Brooklyn Henderson, RN, ACRP-CP, from the RIC will show a live demo of the CTT and share some real-world examples of how the CTT has supported clinical trial recruitment.

This event,  hosted by the Trial Innovation Network, is made available to the University of Rochester community via the UR Clinical and Translational Science Institute.
