Robert Maxwell, Founder of ClinConnect, focuses on improving access to information about clinical trials and simplifying the path patients, doctors, and caregivers need to go through to find potentially life-saving trials. This clinical trial data is drawn directly from the clinicaltrials.gov database. The ClinConnect solution is updated more accurately and provides a user-friendly interface to explore possible trials, aid in applying to participate in a trial, and support participation. The community of people concerned about science-based healthcare and the need for access to clinical trials is growing, and a voter cohort that cuts across traditional party lines.
We talk about:
- Stakeholders in the drug development and testing environment
- Overcoming challenges of recruiting and retaining clinical trial participants
- How COVID-19 impacted willingness to participate in clinical trials
- How extending access drives more diverse participation in clinical trials
- Protecting patient privacy and measures to ensure data security
- Public policy implications of restrictions and access to health data
