Patient Demand
Data-driven intelligence reports connecting patient search behaviour with clinical trial supply across European markets.
Q2 2026Updated quarterlyEU Clinical Research
Patient search signals
Built on real patient search behaviour — what people actually look up when they suspect or live with a condition.
Trial supply mapping
Cross-referenced with active clinical trial sites, investigators and capacity in each country.
Gap analysis
Surfaces where patient demand outpaces local trial activity — and where capacity is underused.
Report overview
What this report includes
Each report connects two signals rarely analysed together: what patients search for online when they suspect or live with a condition, and what clinical trial infrastructure exists to study those conditions locally. The output is a market-signal map — not a prevalence study — designed to inform trial placement, site feasibility, and business development decisions.

How this report supports decision-making
Sponsors — identify country- and therapeutic-area fit. Start with high-volume SOCs, cross-reference underrepresented areas for demand with low trial saturation, then confirm capacity via the site analysis.
CROs — evaluate site feasibility with the Disease-to-Site Finder for therapeutic-area-level inventory, and the Site Capacity Analysis for investigator load and trial experience.
Business Development — scan for white space. The Gap Analysis surfaces SOCs where patient interest materially exceeds trial activity, and Rare Disease sections highlight narrow-indication opportunities.
