Pioneer Research Group

Research embedded in care, not bolted onto it Most trials fail on enrollment, not science. The right patients are already in care somewhere — just disconnected from the study. Pioneer puts research where those patients already are. Instead of a standalone site recruiting strangers through ads, Pioneer builds dedicated research sites inside facilities already treating patients — primarily psychiatry and addiction medicine. Participants are engaged in care and clinically characterized before a protocol ever arrives. What sponsors and CROs get: • Real feasibility, fast: Protocol criteria are tested against aggregate, de-identified facility data before a site opens. No identifiable data leaves the facility; no guesswork. • Targeted pre-screening: Patients are identified against protocol criteria and approached by their own care team, under IRB-approved procedures — not broad outreach. • One accountable team: Feasibility through close-out, one contract, one point of contact. • Consistent quality: One operations group oversees every site — same documentation, same metrics, every location. • Experience: Hands-on Principal Investigator oversight — every protocol is overseen by a PI who stays closely involved in study conduct, not a name on a delegation log. Pioneer doesn't recruit strangers — its sites sit inside facilities that already treat the right patients. Under IRB-approved procedures, the treating clinicians identify eligible candidates from their own records and make the ask themselves. No cold calls, no ad campaigns, and "enrollment problem" becomes someone else's phrase.
