Bringing Clinical Trials to the Point of Care

ABSTRACT

Tryon Medical Partners, based in Charlotte, North Carolina, is a fairly new practice, which broke off from a nearby hospital system approximately three years ago. Overall, the patient does enjoy the experience and when integrated with primary care and their own PCPs, I think clinical trial retention rates are higher because of the attention from their provider." Grayson also sees that the patients are excited to participate when asked, and spread the word to friends and family. Because of the practice population, and history of underrepresentation, Grayson believes that the clinical research information and understanding for them is enlightening.
