CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa., Oct. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — [Suvoda](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4805546-1&h=4118399411&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.suvoda.com%2F&a=Suvoda),
a clinical trial technology company, today announced new capabilities in [Greenphire Travel](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4805546-1&h=1476282829&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.suvoda.com%2Fproducts%2Fgreenphire-patient-travel-product-for-clinical-trials&a=Greenphire+Travel),
its software and services dedicated to removing the logistical barriers that keep
patients from participating in trials. Travel remains one of the most significant
logistical barriers to clinical trial enrollment and retention. For example, in 
the most recent [CISCRP study,](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4805546-1&h=797565532&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.suvoda.com%2Finsights%2Fcase-study%2Fdiscover-what-patients-are-telling-us-about-clinical-trials&a=CISCRP+study%2C)
among participants who found their study disruptive, 49% cited travel to the study
clinic as a cause. Suvoda’s latest product release includes enhancements that aim
to lower these barriers.

Greenphire Travel now gives sponsors and CROs more choice in travel support, greater
visibility into travel costs and trip status, and simpler travel for their patients.

"Participants in clinical trials are often managing serious illness on top of the
logistical demands of getting to visits. Greenphire Travel removes the coordination
burden from sites and their patients so they can focus on what matters—their health
and wellbeing," said [Elizabeth Smith](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4805546-1&h=4271125890&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fin%2Felizabethmorrispm%2F&a=Elizabeth+Smith),
Director of Product Management, Patient Experience at Suvoda.

**More rideshare access for participants, more control for sites and sponsors**

Greenphire Travel now offers global rideshare and car services, with Lyft, Uber 
Health, and Bolt available to participants and sites depending on region. Participants
can book eligible rides through the Suvoda App and view details regarding flights,
hotels, rideshare status, study appointments, questionnaires, and payments. This
reduces routine status inquiries routed through site staff and gives participants
more direct control over their trial experience.

Sites get a more intuitive travel request workflow, a clearer view of trip status,
and secure messaging. Sponsors and CROs gain more detailed reporting for better 
visibility into travel spend and policy across global trials.

"As clinical trial travel grows more complex, sponsors and sites need connected,
actionable insight across the study," said [Will Wing](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4805546-1&h=3165497473&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fin%2Fwilliam-wing-038a289%2F&a=Will+Wing),
Director of Product at Suvoda. "This release brings real-time trip status, consolidated
reporting, and clearer cost information together into one streamlined experience.
That’s the value of a platform approach."

**Sponsors choose the travel support model that fits each study**

Greenphire Travel provides expert global support services, available through two
distinct delivery models. A site-led option allows study teams to easily initiate
straightforward travel requests directly, while the Concierge model provides high-
touch, personalized coordination for more complex studies and participant needs.
Concierge coordinators are stationed across 40+ countries, each available 24/7 to
support participants for the duration of a trial.

"Clinical trials vary enormously in complexity, and the travel support behind them
should too," said Wing. "Sponsors can choose the level of service that fits each
study or site rather than applying a single model across their entire portfolio.
For patients in oncology or rare disease especially, that difference can be significant."
