In today’s complex and competitive clinical trial landscape, participant education and support have emerged as critical success factors, particularly in rare disease and oncology research.

Well-informed patients not only make better enrollment decisions but also demonstrate higher retention rates and provide more accurate data throughout the trial. Yet, many organizations struggle to implement comprehensive education and support strategies that adequately address the needs of patients and their care networks.

A dedicated patient engagement approach can transform clinical trials by building trust, improving outcomes and creating lasting relationships with patient communities that will positively impact both current and future studies. In this webinar, the featured speaker will share practical strategies for developing patient education programs that meet participants where they are, at every step of the clinical trial journey.

The upcoming webinar will feature Jill Anne Castle, MEd, as the guest speaker. Jill has been a state and national advocate in both education and healthcare systems for over 20 years. As a parent of a child with a rare disease and a behavioral science expert, she brings powerful, real-world insight into how education, empathy and support across the patient network can drive meaningful impact in clinical research. Don’t miss her unique perspective on bridging lived experience with professional practice.
