Our take
Through a network of distributed clinical research sites, on-demand popup sites, mobile infrastructure, and traveling clinical professionals, Care Access allows for decentralized clinical trials especially in underserved communities.
Decentralized and virtually managed trials exploded in popularity during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, and due in part to how they can bring access to underrepresented demographics, they look set to stay.
Founded in 2016, Care Access’ work predates the pandemic, putting the company in a very strong position to lead the way as this kind of clinical trial becomes more mainstream.
Indeed, the company recently acquired IBPClin, a clinical trial center in Brazil, highlighting its intention to grow its model in South America as well as at home in the US.
