Pistoia Alliance Debates: Clinical trials and wearables
Richard Lingard, Head of Commercial Operations, Dotmatics has a chemistry background and has been working in the life sciences industry for over two decades, focusing on the business side of drug discovery technology and services. Richard has enjoyed a number of international commercial roles at research supporting organisations: Thomson Reuters and Biovia, as well as research organisations like Argenta Discovery and Merck & Co Inc. As a Management & Chemical and Sciences graduate of UMIST he is still pleased to be using his degree in everyday working life.
Marie Mc Carthy MSc, MBA. Director Product Innovation, is part of the multidisciplinary Innovation Team at ICON PLC. She has specific responsibility for developing solutions in the direct to patient paradigm. Her previous role was that of EU Sales and Marketing Manager with Philips Respironics, building awareness of the value of Actigraphy endpoints among Clinicians and Researchers.
Christian Gossens is leading the Early Development Workflow team in Roche’s Research and Early Development Informatics organization. His team covers workflows in Proteomics and Genetics & Genomics over Clinical Pharmacology to Clinical Operations. He is currently focusing to drive innovation with digital tools for patient and investigator recruitment and engagement.
Matt Jones has over 16 years' experience of working in Research and development and informatics groups within the Pharmaceutical industry. Matt joined Glaxo Wellcome/GSK in 1998 as a scientific software engineer after completing his PhD in synthetic organic chemistry at the University of Bath. He moved through technical leadership, project and programme management roles before leaving in 2014 to join Tessella. Matt is currently helping lead and drive the Tessella advanced analytics strategy, to bring our cross domain experience to bear on the challenges that life science and modern pharma faces.

Smartphones are (nearly) everywhereBut not yet in clinical trials!Disruptive consumer adoption…
… and an opportunity for drug development?

Remote patient monitoring in a clinical trialFour-fold motivation for Roche
Get app workflow into the clinic
Ensure uptake and adherence
Use active tests to track disease progression
Develop frictionless monitoring

Main data from magnetometer, accelerometer and gyroscope:• Recordings in three directions• Sampling rate: ~60Hz
Other data • Touch data• Voice recording (only during
30s voice tests)• Light• Location (GPS, Wifi)• Battery level
Many building blocks must be fit together to deliver a scientifically meaningful “tool”From technology, workflows through to data analysis
22
A cross-functional team is requiredFrom legal through to clinical operations
Remote patient monitoring in a clinical trialFour-fold motivation for Roche

Automatic data cleaning is a prerequisite An example from the voice test, applied to over 1500 records
For automated data cleaning, the sound waves are segmented to remove:• Phone beep before first
phonation• Anything after first

Smartphone sensors compete with high cost, stationary clinical equipmentFirst results in line with medical literature
Roche is paving the way for “Digital Biomarkers”We have developed the capabilities and a scalable approach
