Clinical Trial Matching Platform for Enhanced Patient Recruitment
Challenge
The client is a US healthcare company that wanted to make it easier for patients to find clinical trials that fit their needs.
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry is extensive but hard to navigate without deep cancer knowledge, so patients struggled to find relevant studies and clinicians spent a lot of time on eligibility screening. The solution also had to filter trials by location for patients with travel limits, comply with HIPAA, and meet a tight three-month MVP deadline.

Solution
SumatoSoft built an integrated platform connected to the ClinicalTrials.gov database, with a web dashboard for sponsors and a mobile app for patients.
Sponsors manage trials, including activation and deactivation, and oversee patient engagement and team access. Patients complete a questionnaire and receive personalized recommendations from a machine-learning matching engine that updates as new trials appear or their health information changes. The platform includes two-factor authentication, HIPAA compliance, and geographic filtering by feasible travel distance.
