Clinical Trial Patient Recruitment Services Market Growth & Trends

The global clinical trial patient recruitment services market size is expected to reach USD 1.56 billion by 2030 witnessing a CAGR of 8.07% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc.
The growing pharmaceutical and medical sectors, increasing demand for clinical studies, and adoption of decentralized clinical trials are a few of the factors supporting the growth of the clinical trial patient recruitment services market.

However, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the global market, the outbreak of COVID-19 has caused a voluntary pause in the clinical trials across the globe. The temporary lockdown has significantly disrupted clinical trials, especially in the patient recruitment industry. The lockdown has restricted the patient’s visits to trial sites, which has ultimately led to significant dropouts of the patient population from several clinical trials.

However, companies operating across the industry have focused on mitigating the negative impact of the pandemic by adopting measures such as mergers and acquisitions, implementation of digital technologies such as decentralized clinical trials, remote monitoring of patients, and a few others. Such factors helped the industry to flourish back to its normal growth rate post-2021.

Pharmaceutical organizations are progressively focusing on R&D activities to remain competitive & flexible in the world of healthcare expertise. Companies are focusing on outsourcing tasks ranging from basic research to patient enrollment services. Digital methods of communication are one of the most recent trends witnessed across the patient recruitment services market.

With the help of online platforms, the recruitment growth seems to be streamlining. The majority of people learn about clinical trials through online sources compared to traditional print or TV/radio outreach. Hence, several e-recruitment tactics are evolving, such as social media, web listening, as well as online screeners.

In addition, with the increasing usage of mobile devices, the use of smartphone applications and text messaging has become more widespread. For instance, in North America, about 11% of clinical studies involve social media communications. Hence, the aforementioned factors are anticipated to support the growth of the market.
