“We are proud to be the first non-consortium member to implement the Mobilise-D consortium’s groundbreaking development and validation work,” said Simone Tognetti, Empatica’s CTO and Co-founder. “This means our Platform can now provide 25 new, validated outcomes for COPD, Parkinson’s, Multiple Sclerosis, and Proximal femoral fracture. The demand for high-quality, purpose-specific measures is immense, and Empatica is ready to support the dissemination of the consortium’s innovative work within the industry.”
The project was launched to innovate ways to better assess people’s mobility in daily life using digital measures and wearable sensors, aiding therapeutic development, clinical practice, and precision medicine. With this partnership, all Mobilise-D DMOs can be measured with Empatica’s EmbracePlus wearable and accessed through the Empatica Health Monitoring Platform, consolidating advanced mobility analytics with Empatica’s robust technology.
Lynn Rochester, Professor at Newcastle University and Mobilise-D co-lead, said, “A major barrier to the implementation of digital outcomes in clinical trials is the availability of systems that can deliver accurate and reliable data in a timely and seamless manner. We are delighted that Empatica have chosen to integrate the Mobilise-D advanced mobility analytics, addressing this barrier and moving digital outcome assessment closer to a sustainable solution that drives much-needed innovation and harmonization in clinical trials.”
Providing Mobilise-D’s algorithms alongside Empatica’s service and technology makes it easier for pharma companies to include them in their studies, reducing patient and site burden. Mobilise-D is the first public program to systematically combine device considerations, analytical and clinical validation, and patient and regulatory engagement to generate reliable evidence for digital measures. The critical support from key pharmaceutical companies in the pipeline development leading to the dissemination of these endpoints highlights the collaborative effort required to drive innovation in the industry. Utilizing the algorithms in interventional clinical trial settings is a key step toward the regulatory approval of digital endpoints in clinical drug development.
