When you can’t afford a delay in patient enrollment, you can’t
afford NOT to use Acurian
Especially when you compare these costs…
✓✓ Missed key milestones
✓✓ Delayed time to market
✓✓ Adding more sites, countries
✓✓ Time and money wasted on novice recruitment
suppliers
…to the value of Acurian
✓✓ The patients you need, when you need them
✓✓ More patients per site
✓✓ Sterling track record of on-time enrollment
performance
✓✓ Results-based pricing that is often less than adding
sites or time
In the following case studies, Acurian used IMS CRO CostPro® analyses to
demonstrate that not only did Acurian quickly get patient enrollment back
on track, but as a replacement cost for other options, was significantly more
cost-effective.
Acurian Saved Eight Crucial Months of Enrollment Time for a Global
Gout Program
This phase III global program was critical for the
sponsor, as it was striving to make its compound
the leader in a potential $1B gout market by 2018.
After five months of enrollment, sites‘ databases
were exhausted.
All sites were significantly behind in enrollments.

Acurian Rescued a Cardiovascular Outcomes Mega-Trial
Long-duration trials are tough on enrollment rates,
and this study was no exception.
The sponsor planned for 20,581 patients from 881
sites over seven years. However, at year six, sites had
lost steam and a significant shortfall of 1,986 patients
at the end of year seven was projected.
Acurian was hired at the end of year six to revitalize
study enrollment by supporting 271 of the 881
participating sites with patient recruitment for one year.
In one year, Acurian increased the site enrollment rate
by 343%, which avoided a two-year delay.

Acurian Completed Enrollment 113% Faster Among US Sites
to Rescue a Global Diabetes Study
This was an important Phase III clinical trial designed
to confirm efficacy and safety of the sponsor’s
compound.
In the US diabetes market, even the capable sites
were struggling to find enough patients in the face
of very specific enrollment challenges.
The enrollment rate was much lower than anticipated,
and timelines were in significant jeopardy. Acurian
was hired to provide recruitment support for two
months, then for another two months.
