Lightship and Castor have announced a strategic partnership to run direct-to-patient (hybrid) clinical trials at scale.
For decades, clinical trials have experienced low rates of participation relative to the distribution of a condition, which can impact the ability to access diverse patient populations and construct a representative sample.
