ClinicalMatch update

ClinicalMatch is now searchable on Google.

We've submitted the site to Google Search Console so people can find ClinicalMatch through a search, not just a direct link. New sites can take Google a little while to fully crawl and index, so don't worry if it doesn't show up in results on day one.

ClinicalMatch update

New pages: How It Works, Q&A, About, and Contact.

The site now goes beyond search: a plain-language explanation of how matching works, answers to the questions we hear most, the story behind why we're building this, and a way to reach the team directly. Patient and HCP waitlist pages are also open for early pilot access.

ClinicalMatch update

ClinicalMatch opens public beta of trial search.

Our first milestone is live: anyone can now search actively recruiting U.S. cancer trials in plain language, filtered by condition, keywords, and distance — no account needed. Data comes directly from ClinicalTrials.gov and refreshes continuously. Try it and tell us what's confusing — that feedback shapes what we build next.

Why we're building ClinicalMatch.

Fewer than 5% of U.S. cancer patients ever join a clinical trial, while research sites struggle to fill the very same studies. After fifteen years planning global trials, our founder saw the disconnect up close — and started building the navigator she wished patients had. Read the full story on our About page.
