Fox Trial Finder
Clinical trials are the final and crucial step in delivering new drugs to pharmacy shelves. Yet 85% of trials face delays and 30% never get off the ground due to a lack of volunteers.
To meet this challenge and expedite the drug development process, The Michael J. Fox Foundation developed Fox Trial Finder, a web based tool that matches patients and their loved ones to the trials that urgently need them.
For Patients
In Fox Trial Finder, you can perform a customisable search to find studies you may be eligible to join in your area. What makes you eligible can differ from study to study. The criteria may include things like age, gender, medical history or time of diagnosis. In the guided search, the new, user-friendly Fox Trial Finder asks a few simple questions and then matches you with studies. You can also search on your own by geographic area or keyword. Once you find a study you’re interested in, you can instantly get in touch with research teams directly from the tool via phone or email.
When you participate in research, you give something money can’t buy. Fox Trial Finder opens the door to your opportunity to make a priceless contribution in the search for a cure. While dozens of new clinical trials are launched each year challenges identifying participants too often mean that these studies finish late — or never really get started.

For Researchers
On the research side, Fox Trial Finder can be used by anyone recruiting volunteers for a clinical trial. By creating a profile and linking to a trial on Fox Trial Finder, trial team members can review and send messages to interested volunteers registered on Fox Trial Finder.
