Can agile methods supercharge patient engagement in clinical trials?
NCT ID NCT07053046
First seen Jul 29, 2026 · Last updated Aug 12, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study investigates whether using agile methods—a flexible, collaborative approach—can improve how patient partners and research sites work together during a large diabetes trial. Researchers will compare sites using agile engagement with those using standard methods, measuring effects on recruitment, medication adherence, and participant retention. The goal is to see if better engagement leads to better research outcomes.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- agile engagement methods
- What this could lead to
- If agile methods improve engagement, this could lead to more efficient and collaborative multi-site clinical trials.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial within another study, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is a process change, not a treatment, so direct patient benefits are indirect.
