Patient Recruitment Strategies: Fixing the Friction in Trial Enrollment, Upcoming Webinar Hosted by Xtalks

In this free webinar, learn how to diagnose hidden choice barriers that undermine recruitment. Attendees will discover how to apply proven behavioral science to improve trial messaging and design. The featured speakers will discuss how to increase enrollment among low-activation patients by tailoring support to their readiness level. Attendees will also learn how to integrate decision support tools and personalized journeys that convert hesitation into engagement.

TORONTO, Sept. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Patients don't say "no" because they're unwilling to enroll in a clinical study. They say "no" because clinical trials haven't been made easy, clear or personally meaningful to say "yes." Every decision to join (or avoid) a clinical trial is shaped by a web of micro-barriers: confusion, fear, overload and inertia. This presentation reframes the enrollment problem through the lens of choice architecture and patient activation, two behavioral science frameworks that reveal why good trials fail to earn patient participation.

The featured speakers will explore how applying the science of choice, including framing, defaults, simplification and social proof, can reshape the way trials are offered, perceived and accepted. Combined with patient activation strategies that boost confidence, comprehension and agency, this approach offers a replicable way to design trial experiences that work with human decision-making, not against it.

Drawing on evidence from real-world trials and behavioral health programs, this session will offer a practical roadmap for transforming a patient's "no" into an informed and empowered "yes." It's not about persuading harder, it's about designing smarter.

Register for this webinar to learn patient recruitment strategies that reduce friction and improve trial participation.

Join experts from Jumo Health, John Seaner, Behavioral Science Consultant; Mike Burton, SVP, Strategy & Value; and Joe Brady, VP, Executive Creative Director, for the live webinar on Monday, October 6, 2025, at 1pm EDT (10am PDT).
