Drive scale with total control: Medable's new CRO partner program
What does it mean to do the heavy lifting?
In clinical research, it means assisting with research and development of new drugs alongside pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, helping them complete the routine work that turns the gears to make new medicines.
Within pharma, contract research organizations (CROs) are indispensable partners in the advancement of clinical research who manage the complexities of clinical trials from protocol design to regulatory closeout, handling tasks like trial design, patient recruitment, data management, and regulatory submissions.
As a result, CROs have become indispensable partners in the advancement of clinical research who significantly contribute to our industry’s development of groundbreaking treatments, and human health.
However, the weights and the lifting methods have been changing. As Boston Consulting Group noted in their 2024 Nature article, clinical trials are becoming more complex. As a result, CROs face increasing pressure to deliver more with less.
Recognizing their importance in our mission and vision, Medable is excited to announce the launch of our comprehensive CRO partner program, designed to be a game-changing engine for growth and control in the clinical research industry.
Patient perspectives: Nine updated technology tips for deploying eConsent from Medable’s PCN
Since 2018, Medable has grown a network of patients, caregivers, and care partners whose job is to help improve the clinical trial experience for participants.
Known as the Patient Caregiver Network (PCN), they regularly update their best practices, including recently refreshing their technological best practices around deploying eConsent.
We’re sharing them below to help continually promote the participant's voice and to help foster more equitable, inclusive, and diverse clinical trials
Quality by design: How eCOA improves oversight and participant data quality
eCOA has the power to ease clinical research for all stakeholders. When developing and refining our eCOA offering, we consulted with our own Participant & Caregiver Network (PCN) to provide feedback on design. This allowed us to build our eCOA and the wider platform it fits within in a way that fosters better oversight, and better clinical trial data.

Bridging the gap: Ensuring sites are successful with Medable
For years, clinical research sites have been vocal about the technological challenges they face conducting trials. Obstacles such as multiple disparate systems per trial, an abundance of passwords, lack of interoperability, and other issues all showcase how technology can be as significant a hindrance as it is a boon. As a recent Forbes article suggests, if clinical research technology doesn’t empower sites, it risks slowing down the entire trial.
Connecting in new ways: Our partnership with Withings Health Solutions
In June, Medable announced a partnership with Withings Health Solutions with the goal of reducing the burden on sponsors and sites while empowering patients to participate in trials from home.

New EU Regulatory Recommendations for Decentralized Trials Keep Focus on Patients and Sites
As clinical trials rapidly modernize, government regulators work to evolve even as the same core principles apply. Still, decentralized clinical trials are – simply – clinical trials, as all research today is decentralized in some way, yet we lack global harmonization of regulations.
