At Biotrial, we are committed to making your clinical trial experience as smooth and supportive as possible. From your selection after screening to the completion of the study, here is everything you need to know about your journey with us.

✅ Confirmation of Eligibility

After your screening visit, our medical team will carefully review your test results. Occasionally, additional tests may be needed.

If you meet all the criteria, our screening team will reach out to you the day after your screening visit or after any required follow-up bloodwork to let you know if you are eligible.

During this call, you will be asked to confirm your participation and check in on the specified day. 😊
