Recent Publication Reviews How CTTI’s Digital Health Trial Hub Can Unlock the Potential of Digitalizing Trials

A new CTTI publication, published in Nature Reviews Bioengineering, reviews opportunities for and challenges to using digital health technologies in clinical trials and highlights CTTI’s Digital Health Trials (DHTs) Hub. Digital health technologies have the potential to transform evidence generation in clinical trials, from trial design and participant screening to data capture and analysis. However, digital health technologies introduce new challenges, including concerns around data protection and data quality. The wide variety of available technologies requires that sponsors carefully identify meaningful measures, select and test appropriate technologies for capturing these measures, and train site staff and participants to properly use the selected technologies.

CTTI’s DHT Hub includes tools and recommendations for developing novel endpoints, planning decentralized trials, selecting and testing digital health technologies, managing data, supporting sites, and interacting with regulators. These resources support the effective implementation of DHTs to bring therapies to patients more quickly and efficiently, aligning with CTTI’s Transforming Trials 2030 vision.
