Feasibility
Often the first step in becoming a site for an industry-funded or federal flow through multi-site clinical trial is the completion of a Feasibility Questionnaire. This survey is used by sponsors to assess a site's capability to successfully execute a protocol, covering patient population, infrastructure, staff expertise, and enrollment timelines. Accurate completion of this document is essential for the sponsor in order to avoid wasting resources on sites unable to meet study demands. As a potential site, you should ensure that the document fully reflects our capabilities.
