Case Study
Home Visits For A Phase I Cystic Fibrosis Study
Lightship partnered with a small biopharmaceutical company to extend the reach of five existing trial sites by conducting study visits in participants’ home, as part of a hybrid approach. Lightship’s nurses performed the following assessments: vital checks, physical exam, lab draws, ePROs, concomitant medication and adverse event review.
Key Outcomes:
- 92 visits completed for 21 enrolled patients by Lightship employed research nurses
- 100% patient retention and patient satisfaction for visits conducted in the home with high quality patient care delivered by the same nurses for the duration of the study
- 100% investigator satisfaction for investigators providing oversight for home visits
- 2X as many patients enrolled at sites offering the option of offsite visits compared to sites offering only in-clinic visits
