Case Study

the Background

The goal was to enable patients suffering from fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva to continue taking part in a clinical trial during the coronavirus pandemic and ensuing lockdowns.

the Challenge

  • Organizing home visits to replace patient site visits in view of the COVID-19 pandemic
  • Reassuring and supporting these fragile and anxious patients
  • Protecting patients effectively during their participation in the ongoing trial
  • Checking patients’ physical and mental well-being and shielding them from the stress and pressure of the health situation
  • Minimizing the risk of infection

Logistic challenges:

 

  • Supplying specialized equipment
  • Blood samples, pregnancy tests
  • ECG, blood pressure tests, respiratory rate, temperature
  • Visual medical examinations
  • Helping patients fill out questionnaires
  • Video call system for the site physician to conduct “teleconsultations” via a tablet
  • IMP accountability

the Solution

  • Organizing visits to patients’ homes instead of to the study site for taking biological samples
  • Coordinating deliveries to staff of equipment and supplies needed to carry out visits
  • Delivering dry ice to patients’ homes, to store samples before and during shipment to the centralized laboratory

the Results

Home visits met the expectations of medical teams and patients, who felt more reassured and relaxed about continuing to participate in the trial thanks to the much-reduced risk of exposure to COVID-19.
The sponsor, investigators and patients expressed satisfaction regarding the quality of the visits. The home visits allowed the trial to continue, enabled patient treatment compliance to be monitored and ensured patient retention throughout the three lockdowns.
Thanks to our personalized services, we can support patients at each stage of the clinical journey and keep a check on drop-out rates.
