Hi-Risk/Recurrent/Advanced PrCa Video Chat, July 15, 2025
Earn up to $425… but move quick!
AnCan has a new markert research opportunity for you and your Care Partners through our collaboration with Pinpoint Patient Recruiting. It’s seeking to fill 2 different studies with:
• Men &/or Carers – both can apply but with separate applications
• Must be US based
• Men confirmed hormone sensitive with or without mets OR castrate resistant
• Active treatment is NOT required – you can be on a drug holiday
You’ll intially earn $125 for a 60-minute virtual online interview. Researchers want to understand your experiences living with prostate cancer and your opinions on treatment and care. There’s another $50 if you provide evidence from your medical records of your confirmed diagnosis – screenshots suffice. If you opt in for a second interview, another $125 is available. Your Carers also have the opportunity to earn $125 for a 60 minute interview. By our reckoning, that’s upto $425!
There are 30 slots available so move quickly. To see if you qualify for the study or to get more information, please visit pinpointpatientrecruiting.com/pc-interview-ancan2025 or contact Brittany Weathersbee at brittany@pinpointpatientrecruiting.com. All information and responses will remain confidential. If you’ve already been contacted directly by Pinpoint from a pror study and been accepted, please let us know at rd@ancan.org.
