Release date: 2014-11-19 Pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline is working on a mobile medical tool for a small six-person study to test clinical trials and plans to use it extensively in clinical trials. The company worked with data company Medidata and sensor companies Vital Connect and ActiGraph to evaluate the role of wearable sensors in the context of clinical trials. Medidata Chairman Glen de Vries said: "Working with GlaxoSmithKline provides us with a unique opportunity to demonstrate how technology can improve patient management and accelerate drug development. The data we collect is unprecedented in scale and we can participate from it every day. The collection of activity and vital signs information for more than 18 million data points will provide life science companies with new rules and new opportunities." The experiment was conducted by GlaxoSmithKline's Human Performance Laboratory, and six healthy participants used Vital Connect's HealthPatch MD and ActiGraph motion monitors to track their vital signs, ECG and motor levels. They upload the data to the Medidata app, which in turn uploads the data to the lab's clinical record. The patient was asked to live a normal life every day, only to register at the beginning and end of the trial. Nersi Nazari, Chairman and CEO of Vital Connect, said: "The Medidata Clinical Cloud enables seamless data integration of HealthPatch MD and clinical trial records, which offers new possibilities for measuring biological data such as heart rate and skin temperature. Continuous clinical level The availability of health data provides real-time results analysis, the ability to quickly identify potential safety issues and adjust trials based on preliminary experiments." The head of Medidata said in a statement that the next Medidata research team will work with GlaxoSmithKline to try to turn the data in the study into actionable insights, allowing clinical trials to be completed faster and more patiently. Medidata also plans to use data to develop its own mobile functional clinical trial platform and will also recruit customers in the coming months.
