In May 2022, UCB launched a digital health roundtable series to explore the many diverse ways technology can benefit patients. In the third Roundtable, Emily Lewis (Digital Business Transformation, Neurology, UCB) convened an expert panel, including Dudley Tabakin, VivoSense CEO, to discuss the field of pediatric digital measurement to unpack key learnings from deployments to date, challenges, opportunities and the need for its translation into care. Watch the full video to hear insights from all four esteemed panelists.

VivoSense announces that we have joined the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health’s (FNIH) Biomarkers Consortium! This new partnership strengthens our joint mission to facilitate the development of novel digital biomarkers using new and existing technologies, including evidence for their qualification in diagnostic medicine, therapeutic development, and clinical practice improvement.

VivoSense, Inc. has joined the Clinical Trials Transformation Initiative (CTTI) to advance the efficiency and efficacy of clinical trial research and care. As a leading provider of digital endpoint solutions derived from wearable sensors, VivoSense will contribute to CTTI's foundational efforts to improve quality, patient engagement, novel trial design, digital health trials, investigator, and site support and ethics in research.

VivoSense announces an expansion of our collaboration with the Rett Syndrome Research Trust (RSRT). Building on the success of our previous collaborations, VivoSense and RSRT will continue to support the development of treatments for Rett Syndrome (RTT) by qualifying objective digital outcome measures of breathing problems for use in RTT trials.

VivoSense recognizes Rare Disease Day by minding the importance of discovering new advancements in research and clinical trials to care for those with rare diseases.

VivoSense, a trusted leader in the development, validation, and delivery of digital clinical measures, announced today that it has been awarded a research grant funded by the National Institute of Aging (NIA) and the Massachusetts Artificial Intelligence and Technology Center for Connected Care in Aging & Alzheimer’s Disease (MassAITC; grant number 5P30AG073107-02 Pilot A2).

Good data is more important than big data in developing digital biomarkers. Big data is often sold as the solution to all digital data analyses and is touted to revolutionize healthcare in the coming years. However, the problem with a superabundance of data is that digital biomarker development becomes a fishing expedition, and the catch may not be relevant to the question. Without a hypothesis (often the case in biomarker development with big data), accurate results may be too low to use in a clinical trial or, even worse, divergent with no findings.

In this Hitlab panel discussion, VivoSense CEO Dudley Tabakin and Industry Principal Paul Sonnier discuss validating digital endpoints for their delivery in clinical trials using a patient-first approach that substantiates the efficacy or performance of their treatment.

SAS Principal Industry Consultant Stijn Rogiers interviewed VivoSense CEO Dudley Tabakin about the uptake in decentralized clinical trials in response to the ongoing disruptions caused by the Coronavirus pandemic of 2020. As trials move toward decentralization, new processes and strategies are required to effectively collect and analyze patient data in a meaningful and validated way. Here are a few key takeaways from their conversation.
