By GlobalData“This combination with Tryl helps us leap ahead in fulfilling our vision of creating the industry’s first-of-its-kind solution to help keep patients more informed and engaged throughout the entire clinical trial process, especially as our industry accelerates toward decentralised clinical trial models.”
The Tryl team uses established behavioural principles from other industries such as professional sports and consumer finance to boost patient adherence to trial protocols.
Its predictive analytics aid clinicians to intervene before the dropout of the study subjects. This method lowers the burden of participants while also increasing value for sponsors as well as researchers.
Tryl CEO Ian Greenfield said: “An ever-increasing focus on patient centricity demands an integrated approach to how patients are engaged.
“YPrime has a strong vision for the future and by bringing together offerings from our two companies, we can create a novel solution that takes head on the most pressing challenges associated with attracting, engaging, and retaining patients.”
