Pre-screening questions aim to gather information pertaining to a patient’s eligibility to determine if they’re a good fit for further screening. These are primarily based on the trial’s inclusion and exclusion criteria—if a patient fits within a study’s core inclusion criteria (such as age, diagnosis of interest, etc.) and doesn’t meet any of its permanent exclusion criteria (often including prior treatments, comorbidities, pregnancy, and known organ dysfunction), they may be contacted further. Importantly, some eligibility criteria may require more invasive testing, such as lab work or scans, so those criteria would not be explored in pre-screening.
