What types of trials might I be matched to?

Last updated: October 27, 2025

The types of clinical trials you may be matched to on the DecenTrialz platform are based entirely on the information you provide during the pre-screening process. This includes your general health status, current or past medical conditions, symptoms (if any), geographic location, and preferences regarding travel or remote participation.

This section provides an overview of the primary trial categories you may be matched with and what to expect if a match occurs.

How matches are determined

DecenTrialz uses your responses to the pre-screener to evaluate alignment with general eligibility parameters submitted by trial sponsors or research sites. If your information corresponds to these parameters, you may be matched to:

  • One or more actively recruiting clinical trials
  • Trials located in your region or offering remote participation options
  • Studies seeking individuals with specific conditions, risk factors, or healthy volunteer profiles

Please note: A match does not indicate formal qualification or enrollment. It is a preliminary indication of possible eligibility. All matched trials require additional screening by the research site team before enrollment can occur.

Common trial types you may be matched

1. Condition-Specific Trials

These trials recruit participants who have a confirmed diagnosis of a particular medical condition. Examples include:

  • Type 2 Diabetes
  • Asthma or COPD
  • Depression or Anxiety Disorders
  • Migraine or Chronic Headache
  • Autoimmune Conditions (e.g., Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis)

During pre-screening, you may be asked about your diagnosis, current treatment regimen, and symptom severity to determine alignment with the trial’s criteria.

2. Preventive or Wellness Trials

These studies often focus on individuals who are at risk of developing a condition or are interested in preventive care strategies. Common examples include:

  • Vaccine development trials
  • Lifestyle intervention studies (e.g., diet, exercise, or stress management)
  • Genetic screening or early detection research

These trials may or may not require a current diagnosis and are often open to broader participant groups.

3. Healthy Volunteer Trials

If you report being in good general health with no major diagnoses, you may be eligible for trials specifically designed for healthy individuals. These trials typically involve:

  • Phase 1 drug or device safety studies
  • Observational studies for baseline physiological or behavioral data
  • Research on sleep, nutrition, exercise, or digital health tools

For more details, see [Healthy Volunteer Eligibility].

4. Remote or Decentralized Trials

Depending on your geographic location and available studies, you may be matched to trials that offer:

  • Fully virtual participation via mobile applications or telehealth
  • Hybrid designs combining in-person and remote procedures
  • Home-based study kits, wearable devices, or remote monitoring tools

These models are particularly beneficial for individuals with limited access to clinical trial sites or who prefer minimal travel.

What you will see If a match occurs

If your responses result in one or more potential matches, the platform will display:

  • The title of each trial and a brief description of the study’s focus
  • The location of the research site or confirmation of remote participation
  • A summary of basic eligibility criteria
  • A clear option to learn more or request a referral to the research site

You are never automatically enrolled in a trial. All participation decisions are made voluntarily and require your informed consent before any further steps are taken.

Key Note: The types of trials you may be matched with depend on your submitted responses, your location, and the availability of studies at the time of pre-screening. If no match is currently available, you may return at a later time or update your profile. New trials are added regularly to the DecenTrialz platform.
