Decentralized Clinical Trials Market Size To Reach USD 19.38 Billion In 2032
December 05, 2025- Growing demand for patient-centric clinical models is a major factor accelerating revenue in the decentralized clinical trials (DCT) market. DCTs are reshaping the research landscape by offering a faster, more economical, and reliable way to conduct studies. Because they allow remote participation, these trials expand accessibility and improve patient experience-enabling sponsors to engage more diverse populations. As global healthcare systems push for equity, efficiency, and better patient engagement, DCTs are emerging as a pivotal model that prioritizes participant needs without compromising scientific rigor.
In June 2025, Medable Inc.-a leading clinical development technology provider-launched its Partner Program to equip CROs and strategic partners with generative AI-powered, self-service eCOA development tools for digital trials. Medable's SaaS platform has already supported more than 300 decentralized or digitally enhanced studies across 70 countries, connecting with over one million patients and participants globally.
Although DCTs offer substantial advantages, they also introduce operational challenges for sponsors, CROs, and clinical sites. Notably, decentralized models tend to show higher rates of protocol deviations compared with traditional site-based trials, underscoring the need for robust governance and digital infrastructure.

Segments market overview and growth Insights
Based on component, the decentralized clinical trials market is segmented into hardware & devices, software platforms, and support services. Hardware & devices segment contributed the largest revenue share in 2024. Advancements in digital health technologies (DHTs) have broadened the scope of remotely collected clinical trial data, reducing or eliminating the need for patients to travel to centralized research sites. Many wearable devices used in decentralized clinical trials-including fitness trackers, smartwatches, and specialized medical wearables-continuously capture health information and transmit it to paired smartphones or tablets via Bluetooth. In February 2025, Tasso, Inc., a leader in patient-focused, clinical-grade blood collection solutions, introduced its next-generation dried blood spot (DBS) collection technology. The new solution integrates the company's Tile-T20 dried whole blood cartridge with the Tasso Mini device, enabling precise, user-friendly DBS sampling for clinical studies and anti-doping programs.
Regional market overview and growth insights
North America held the largest market share in 2024. The market's growth is primarily fueled by increasing adoption of patient-focused trial models and rapid technological progress in digital health systems. Regulatory bodies worldwide have begun recognizing and supporting a shift toward more digitally enabled clinical research. In March 2023, IQVIA Consumer Health and ObvioHealth launched a fully decentralized clinical trial with Jovie USA to support the introduction of the first FDA-approved goat milk-based infant formula in the U.S. The study is the first of its kind in infant nutrition, allowing parents and infants to complete the trial entirely from home with no required in-person visits.
