Opportunities for Real-World Measures in Alzheimer's Research

 Jen Blankenship  November 23, 2022

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease that progresses to impact every dimension of a patient’s life. With no cure and limited options to manage symptoms, research is underway to develop drugs that impact the most burdensome aspects of AD: memory problems and the ability to function independently.

Good Data is Essential in Digital Biomarker Development

 Dudley Tabakin  November 4, 2022

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.

Measuring Physical Function and Mobility in Real World Settings

 Jen Blankenship  November 4, 2022

Physical function and mobility are relevant to virtually all clinical indications and are significant determinants of an individual’s quality of life. Because of this, function and mobility are often assessed in clinical trials using subjective questionnaires or in-clinic performance tests, but these assessments may not reflect a patient’s lived experience. Wearable sensors provide an opportunity to move assessments of function into the real world to measure how patients feel and function in their everyday environments.

VivoSense Joins DiMe Physical Activity Project

 Kate Lyden  October 31, 2022

We are excited to announce our participation in DiMe's Physical Activity, the latest digital clinical measures project. In partnership with the Digital Medicine Society (DiMe) and other leaders in the field, we are developing a core set of digital measures for tracking patients’ physical activity across any therapeutic area.

Clinicians, researchers, and drug developers need to have a shared baseline of digital measures to improve our patients’ health, regardless of their disease or condition. By taking an omni-therapeutic approach, we believe we can reduce time and risk, speeding the development of new therapies to market. Read more about the project.
