Janssen Hopes to Improve Communication with Clinical Trial Patients Through New Program

While clinical trials tend to focus on helping patients find new ways to conquer their disease and advance scientific understanding, the patient’s experience isn’t always at the center of the conversation. The patient’s safety and well-being are always central, but sometimes communication isn’t as clear as possible, leaving the patient with questions or suboptimal understanding of the care they’re receiving.

Janssen plans to change that with their new program called “HealthCaring Conversations for Clinical Research: A Science-Based Framework for Patient-Centered Conversations,” which aims to improve the clinical trial experience for both the patient and the investigators.
