Give Participants the Document Management and Support They Deserve

Sites have eBinders, CTMS, and EHRs to manage documents. Sponsors have EDC, eTMF, and CTMS. Participants? A manila folder, scattered emails, and confusion.

Clear Trials closes this gap with a participant-facing eBinder that stores, organizes, and explains trial documents—leading to fewer questions, fewer missed visits, and fewer early withdrawals.

FAQs

What risk does this introduce from a regulatory or legal standpoint?

Clear Trials does not replace or modify any of your IRB-approved documents. The platform simply explains the content in clearer language, with an audit trail showing how explanations map to the original text.
This approach maintains regulatory alignment while strengthening documentation of participant understanding. And, of course, participants will always sign official documents, not the AI-generated summaries.

How much work is required from our teams to use Clear Trials?

Very little. Sponsors do not upload documents, maintain repositories, or manage amendment updates.
Participants simply upload the version they received at the site and your only recurring task is maintaining global rules you’d like for your documents (e.g., reading level, required phrasing), which takes minutes.

Why would we use Clear Trials?

Most errors and deviations happen after enrollment—during routine tasks where participants misunderstand what to do or what’s expected of them.

Participants already turn to tools like ChatGPT or social media to make sense of their study. Clear Trials provides clear, structured explanations of high-impact documents without altering any IRB-approved language. Participants get the guidance they need, and sponsors gain confidence knowing all summaries and aides are generated with strict guardrails and sponsor oversight.

How does this fit with our current document management system?

Clear Trials does not compete with or replace any of your existing platforms. Think of this as the participant-comprehension layer that ePlatforms do not provide.
You keep your current document workflows — we simply make it clearer, more accessible, and more consistent across sites.

Which documents are in scope for Clear Trials?

Clear Trials focuses on the highest-impact, participant-facing documents — the ones most strongly linked to protocol deviations, participant confusion, and site burden.

Our Tier 1 scope includes:

  • Visit instructions and procedure guides

  • Visit calendars and “what’s next” summaries

  • Medication and dosing instructions

  • Informed Consent Forms

  • Device instructions

  • AE/SAE reporting instructions

We also support other participant-facing materials as long as they stay within sponsor/IRB-approved content.

We can help create optional summaries or supplemental explanations if your team wants them.
