Market research

Clark Medical Research has been asked by a global pharmaceutical company to conduct some market research with people with Huntington’s Disease (HD) and/or their family or friends who are their carers. This research is seeking to identify the ‘patient journey’ and to assess the impact on activities of daily living of HD. The research focuses on how people found out they had HD, the tests and treatments taken, their experiences, how they coped with the family, progression of the disease. This will assist the pharmaceutical company to understand the impact of the disease and its implications for those that have HD and their carers.
We shall also be asking for views on a potential new medication for the treatment of symptoms. We are also asking for completion of a short self-completion survey which follows the disease pathway. This may take around 15-20 minutes.
The details of the survey are:
Topic: Huntington’s Disease; the patient journey, activities of daily living, quality of life, treatments, progression; new product preferences
Methodology: Face to face interview at a convenient location for you, which may be at home, with a short pre-interview self completion survey
Duration: Approx 50 minutes interview and 15-20 minutes on self completion survey
Honoraria: £70
Timing: Between 19th June and 18th July 2014
The interview will be audio taped in order to speed up the interview and for analysis purposes. We shall seek your permission for this, but it may not be practical to conduct the interview without recording it. People at the pharmaceutical company may wish to listen to the recordings at a later date, but we will ask your permission and you may refuse this. We will ensure that all information will be anonymised and all information will be treated confidentially.
I would be grateful if you could let me know by e-mailing me on [email protected] or [email protected] or mobile 07971 015662 as soon as possible as to whether you would be available to participate. We will need to go through some screening questions with you to confirm that the survey is relevant to you, which take around 5 minutes.
Many thanks
