Our take
Participation in clinical trials is limited, and requires both knowledge of them, and the availability and resources to proceed. As such, it has tended to freeze out a number of key groups who go on to be underrepresented in medical research - especially when it comes to cancer treatments. Public benefit company Trial Library wants to change this.
Trial Library promises to be a platform offering oncology clinicians sponsored opportunities to assess their patients for trial suitability. If successful, the platform will then help patients access resources for the trickier attendance logistics, like travel, food, and other services.
Having come out of stealth just recently, Trial Library is not yet operational - but it’s attracted some strong initial funding to get there. More importantly, it could prove a relatively distinctive offering in a growing field of companies tackling the trial diversity issue.
Startups like Acclinate, Antidote, and SubjectWell help researchers and pharmaceutical companies engage directly with underrepresented communities to advertise trials, whereas Trial Library appears to be more of an assistive tool for clinicians. The addition of logistics resources is a distinctive touch, too, but may need to be fleshed out to pull over customers from better-established rivals.
