Low patient recruitment in clinical trials is one of the biggest challenges that Sponsors, CROs, and Sites must overcome.

And that’s where we come in.

Once site selection has occurred a sponsor contracts a patient recruitment vendor to assist the sites with meeting their enrollment goals.  But not every site's recruitment needs are the same.  We customize our packages based on the Sponsor's needs for that particular protocol.  We offer services to assist your sites on any level, whether they are a site that wants to expand their internal network of physicians/ patients through our Rocket Referral App or they are a site that needs help generating new outside leads through our Digital Marketing Services.


Rocket Referral App

The Rocket Referral App is a mobile app built to connect clinical research teams with local referring healthcare professionals. Rocket Trials builds and trains a physician referral network comprised of healthcare professionals willing to refer into local studies. While referring healthcare professionals and the study team can both act as app users, only the study team has additional access to the Rocket Trials Patient Tracking Portal.

Rocket Trials will bill the Sponsor when referred patients reach certain milestones. Our app features include:

  • Feasibility Checks — Rocket Trials can narrow down the number of potential patients within our database based on study I/E criteria and location by working with our EHR partners.

  • Find Study Details – app users can login to access information (I/E criteria, duration , enrollment dates, etc.) on all studies eligible for enrollment.

  • Refer Patients – The in-app referral form makes submitting patient information and collecting consent easy. The study team receives a notification with each new referral.

  • Track Referrals – Referring healthcare professionals can track their referrals throughout the screening process.

  • Medical Record Aggregation — (optional) Patient HIPAA authorization collected for medical release and medical records provided to sites.

  • SET UP FEE: A fee charged to cover Ad creation, Sponsor / IRB approvals, site access set up, and campaign set up on all digital marketing platforms.

  • REFERRAL FEE: A fee charged for each Referred subject (any patient that has passed the prescreening questionnaire). The Referral Fee must be paid before the campaign starts based on the agreed upon referral cap (the cap can be increased as needed throughout the campaign).

Milestone fees (referral / randomization) will be determined by review of the study protocol.

Rocket Trials will use the sponsor-provided IWRS / IRT or EDC blinded report to determine if any Randomizations / Milestones have occurred as a result of a referral generated from the Rocket Trials Digital Marketing. An Invoice will then be sent to the sponsor for each subject to reach the designated milestone.
