HealthMatch

HealthMatch is a digital platform that connects patients with clinical trials. Founded in 2017, the company operates with the goal of making clinical trial participation more accessible by matching individuals to relevant studies based on their medical profiles. The platform serves both patients seeking trial opportunities and research sponsors looking to recruit participants.

As of current figures, HealthMatch has registered over 2 million patients, recruited for 558 trials, answered more than 73 million medical questions, and maintains a 26% re-engagement rate. The platform currently lists over 300 actively enrolling studies.

Platform Overview

• Patients can search for and match to clinical trials based on their location and medical situation.
• Research sponsors and trial recruiters can list their studies on the platform to reach a broad patient audience.
• The matching process is supported by a large volume of medical question-and-answer data collected through patient interactions.

Founding Background

• HealthMatch was founded after the founder observed, during medical school work in neuro-oncology research focused on Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), that access to clinical trials was heavily dependent on a patient's doctor's knowledge or geographic location.
• The founding motivation was to ensure patients have equal access to trial information regardless of their background or location.
• The company aims to accelerate the development of new medicines by broadening the reach of clinical research recruitment globally.
