A Clinical Trial Company With A Purpose
-
Internal database and clinician private practices
Our pharmaceutical and CRO partners are so important to us and we accomplish a lot together. We understand what it means to bring a clinical trial from site activation to study closeout while providing clean and timely data in between. The majority of our patients come from our physicians' private practice databases.
-
Safety & PI oversight
Our team understands research. With dedicated full time study coordinators, and Investigators with their own built-in private practices onsite, YCT brings a highly sought after diverse pool of research-naive patients, and strong safety oversight to the studies we undertake.
-
Site Metrics and Data Driven
With e-source and e-regulatory capabilities, electronic health records (certified copies available), combined with our GDPR e-storage of staff records, YCT is fully digital and prepared for the opportunities these capabilities will bring to our community of clinicians and patients.
-
Study Coordinators
The study coordinator is the backbone of any clinical research project. Not only are our coordinators amongst the most experienced in the industry, but they understand the importance of screening and enrolling appropriate study participants. Two of our co-founders also founded and continue to manage The CRC Academy, one of the most reputable CRC online training programs in the industry.
Built for Sponsors: Our Numbers, Defined
We reduce enrollment and start-up risk in Phase II-IV trials by combining physician-practice access to a research-naive, majority-Hispanic patient population with fully digital site operations. Every number below comes directly from our CRIO (CTMS/eSource/eReg) system. Data period: through June 2026, refreshed quarterly. Sponsor names and protocol identifiers are intentionally withheld on this public page and shared under CDA.
Active Portfolio (source: CRIO, June 2026)
16 studies in the active portfolio: 5 enrolling, 2 in start-up, 4 in maintenance/follow-up, 5 in close-out
12 distinct sponsors, including 7 of the top-20 global pharmaceutical companies; 7 of our 16 studies are repeat-sponsor awards
Phase II-IV experience across cardiometabolic (type 2 diabetes, obesity, hypertension, heart failure, atrial fibrillation), respiratory (COPD), CNS/psychiatry (major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder), musculoskeletal (osteoarthritis), and dermatology (plaque psoriasis)
260+ screening encounters and 840+ completed study visits logged in CRIO
780+ pre-screened candidates tagged to active protocols in our CRIO recruitment database, in addition to our physicians’ private-practice populations
Central IRB: Advarra (CIRBI). eReg posture as of June 2026: zero expiring documents, zero missing training certifications, zero outstanding signature actions
How We Recruit: A System, Not A Hope
Identification: CRIO recruitment database, our physicians’ private-practice records, and IRB-approved bilingual community outreach (see our Community Videos page)
Pre-screen: coordinator review against protocol inclusion/exclusion criteria, documented in CRIO eSource
Outreach: phone and text in English or Spanish using IRB-approved materials, with every attempt logged
Scheduling: screening visits booked directly in CRIO scheduling
No-show reduction: reminder outreach plus small-city geography that keeps travel burden low
Retention: named-coordinator continuity from consent through close-out, with Spanish-language support at every visit
Our Enrollment Realism Policy
We do not commit to a specific enrollment number until we have reviewed the final protocol’s inclusion/exclusion criteria against our patient population. Initial expressions of interest reflect estimated eligibility; final commitments come after I/E review.
Representative Enrollment, By Design
Yuma County: 200,000+ residents, roughly two-thirds Hispanic or Latino (U.S. Census), historically underserved by clinical research
Bilingual operations end-to-end: consent, study visits, and follow-up conducted in English or Spanish
Largely research-naive patients drawn from our investigators’ own practices rather than professional study-subject pools
2.5-hour drive from Phoenix or San Diego, plus an international airport, for regional and national CRAs
