How it works
From a few questions to a study coordinator — here's the whole path.
You answer a short questionnaire
About two minutes: your age, where you live, a few health details, and how to reach you. Your answers build a private profile we use to match you.
We match you to active studies
We compare your profile against studies that are recruiting right now and show the ones you may qualify for, with a plain-language reason for each match.
You choose to be contacted
Nothing happens without your consent. If you opt in, a study coordinator reaches out to confirm your eligibility and answer your questions.
The study team confirms and enrolls you
Final eligibility is always decided by the medical team at the study site. If it's a fit, they walk you through informed consent and schedule your first visit.
We keep you posted on future matches
If you don't match today, or a study wraps up, we can alert you when new studies fit your profile — so you only fill out your details once.
Is there any cost?
No. TrialPath is free to use. In a clinical study, the study treatment and study-related visits are provided at no cost to you, and many studies also compensate you for your time and travel.
Who runs the studies?
Studies are run by research sites, hospitals, and clinics, and overseen by licensed medical staff and an independent ethics board (an IRB). TrialPath is not a healthcare provider — we help you discover studies and connect with the teams that run them.
Eligibility is confirmed by the study team. Joining a study is always your choice, and participation is free.
