Clinical Trial Monitoring and Weekly Research Briefings

TrialsAlert monitors clinical trials on ClinicalTrials.gov daily, classifies them by potential impact using AI, and delivers weekly research briefings in plain English to patients and caregivers tracking specific medical conditions.

How it works

1. Enter your condition

Tell us what you or your loved one is dealing with. We use AI to understand the medical terminology and find every relevant clinical trial.

2. We scan daily

Every day, we scan ClinicalTrials.gov for new and updated trials. Our AI scores each trial for relevance, phase, and potential impact on your condition.

3. You get a weekly briefing

Every Friday, you receive your weekly trials alert: a plain-language research briefing explaining what changed this week, which trials matter most, and why. No jargon, no noise.

4. Share with your doctor

Generate a professional clinical trial report you can bring to your next appointment or email directly to your physician.

How we find your trials

Full transparency on our matching system. Your trust matters more than our marketing.

Step 1: Understanding your condition

When you enter a condition, our AI medical model (OpenAI GPT-4.1-mini) expands it into a complete medical profile: the clinical term, every known synonym, abbreviations, related treatments, and the broader disease domain. "Breast cancer" becomes a network of 15 to 20 related terms covering how researchers, doctors, and patients each refer to the same condition, in English, French, and Spanish.

Step 2: Scanning ClinicalTrials.gov daily

Every 6 hours, we pull newly updated trials directly from the official ClinicalTrials.gov API. Not a cached copy. Not a third-party database. The primary source, the same data used by hospitals and researchers worldwide.

Step 3: Three-gate matching

Every trial goes through three verification steps before it reaches you. The Domain Gate confirms the trial is in the right medical field, so an oncology subscription will never receive a cardiology trial. The Condition Gate requires a specific match against your condition or any of its synonyms (no match, no alert). The Treatment Gate boosts the match score when a relevant treatment is tested, but is never sufficient on its own.

You won't miss a relevant trial because a researcher used a different name for your condition. And you won't receive irrelevant alerts because a keyword happened to appear in an unrelated study.

Frequently Asked Questions about Clinical Trial Monitoring

Where does the data come from?

ClinicalTrials.gov, a US government database maintained by the National Library of Medicine. We scan over 400,000 clinical trials.

Is this medical advice?

No. TrialsAlert helps you stay informed about clinical research. Always discuss findings with your healthcare provider before making medical decisions.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. One click, no questions asked. Your subscription ends at the current billing period.

What if there is nothing new for my condition?

You will still receive a weekly briefing confirming we are monitoring. Research activity varies. Some weeks are busy, others quiet. You will know either way.

How is this different from searching ClinicalTrials.gov myself?

You could search yourself, but there are over 400,000 trials. We scan daily, match what is relevant to you, classify trials by impact, and explain them clearly. That is 5+ hours of research, done for you, every week.
