Summary

Patient recruitment into clinical trials is a major challenge and the elderly, socially deprived and those with multiple co-morbidities are often under-represented. The idea of paying patients an incentive to participate in research is controversial and evidence is needed to evaluate this as a recruitment strategy. This study aims to assess the impact on recruitment into five current clinical trials of a £100 incentive payment and whether this payment will attract more elderly and socially deprived patients.
