Stanford University, through its departments of Genetics, Genetics and Biomedical Data Science, the Clinical Genomics program in collaboration with the Icahn School of Medicine in New York, published the article \u201cDigital Health Applications for Pharmacogenetic Clinical Trials\u201d in the scientific journal Genes.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The article describes the importance of applying technologies in Digital Health through data analysis to better understand health-related behaviors to improve patient-centered clinical care.<\/p>

\u201cDigital Health is increasingly being used in clinical trials, and an important field that could potentially benefit from incorporating DH into trial design is pharmacogenetics. Prospective pharmacogenetic trials typically compare a standard care arm to a pharmacogenetic-guided therapeutic arm,\u201d the authors explain.<\/p>

Trials regularly require many participants and in very specific situations and conditions, which is a difficult task for researchers to recruit patients who are willing to participate for long periods of time in clinical research. That is why the use of Digital Health tools, such as medical applications, can reduce the workload of researchers and physicians, specifically in pharmacogenetic clinical trials covered in the article.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Some use cases for Digital Health applications include:<\/p>

  1. Automatic electronic health record-based patient screening and recruitment.<\/li>
  2. Interactive websites for participant engagement.<\/li>
  3. Home- and tele-health visits for patient convenience (e.g., samples for lab tests, physical exams, medication administration).<\/li>
  4. Healthcare apps to collect patient-reported outcomes, adverse events and concomitant medications, and to deliver therapeutic information to patients.<\/li>
  5. Wearable devices to collect vital signs, electrocardiograms, sleep quality, and other discrete clinical variables.\u00a0<\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    The research also evaluated the characteristics of remote clinical trials, conducted a review of articles that have completed trials through digital health. The most important features of digital tools detailed in one of the revised articles were: direct data capture, electronic consent, electronic journals and a portable dress patch sensor device.<\/p>

    \u201cDigital Health technologies are increasingly being incorporated into clinical trials to facilitate novel trial workflows and outcomes, decrease participant burden, cost-effective operations, and accelerate scientific discovery,\u201d the researchers concluded.<\/p>

    La Universidad de Stanford a trav\u00e9s de sus departamentos de Gen\u00e9tica, Gen\u00e9tica y Ciencia de Datos Biom\u00e9dicos, el programa de Gen\u00f3mica Cl\u00ednica en colaboraci\u00f3n con La escuela de Medicina Icahn en Nueva York, publicaron el articulo: \u201cAplicaciones de salud digital para ensayos cl\u00ednicos farmacogen\u00e9ticos\u201d en la revista cient\u00edfica Genes. El art\u00edculo describe la importancia de la aplicaci\u00f3n de las tecnolog\u00edas en Salud Digital a trav\u00e9s del an\u00e1lisis de datos para comprender mejor los comportamientos relacionados con la salud y as\u00ed mejorar la atenci\u00f3n cl\u00ednica centrada en el paciente. \u201cLa salud digital se utiliza cada vez m\u00e1s en ensayos cl\u00ednicos, y un campo importante que podr\u00eda beneficiarse potencialmente de la incorporaci\u00f3n de salud digital en el dise\u00f1o de los ensayos es la farmacogen\u00e9tica. Los ensayos farmacogen\u00e9ticos prospectivos suelen comparar un grupo de atenci\u00f3n est\u00e1ndar con un grupo terap\u00e9utico guiado por farmacogen\u00e9tica,\u201d explican los autores. Los ensayos regularmente requieren de muchos participantes y en situaciones y condiciones muy espec\u00edficas, lo que resulta una tarea complicada para los investigadores el reclutar a pacientes que est\u00e9n dispuestos a participar por lapsos largos en una investigaci\u00f3n cl\u00ednica. Es por ello, que la utilizaci\u00f3n de herramientas de Salud Digital, como aplicaciones m\u00e9dicas, pueden reducir la carga de trabajo de los investigadores y m\u00e9dicos, en espec\u00edfico en ensayos cl\u00ednicos farmacogen\u00e9ticos que son los que aborda el art\u00edculo. Algunos casos de uso de aplicaciones de Salud Digital incluyen: Selecci\u00f3n y reclutamiento autom\u00e1tico de pacientes basados \u200b\u200ben registros m\u00e9dicos electr\u00f3nicos. Sitios web interactivos para la participaci\u00f3n de los participantes. Visitas domiciliarias y de telesalud para conveniencia del paciente (por ejemplo, muestras para an\u00e1lisis de laboratorio, ex\u00e1menes f\u00edsicos, administraci\u00f3n de medicamentos). Aplicaciones de atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica para recopilar resultados informados por los pacientes, eventos adversos y medicamentos concomitantes, y para brindar informaci\u00f3n terap\u00e9utica a los pacientes. Dispositivos port\u00e1tiles para recolectar signos vitales, electrocardiogramas, calidad del sue\u00f1o y otras variables cl\u00ednicas discretas.  En la investigaci\u00f3n tambi\u00e9n se encargaron de evaluar las caracter\u00edsticas de ensayos cl\u00ednicos remotos, realizaron una revisi\u00f3n de art\u00edculos que hayan completado ensayos a trav\u00e9s de salud digital. Las caracter\u00edsticas m\u00e1s importantes de herramientas digitales detalladas en uno de los art\u00edculos revisados fueron la: captura directa de datos, consentimiento electr\u00f3nico, diarios electr\u00f3nicos y un dispositivo sensor de parche de astigraf\u00eda port\u00e1til. \u201cLas tecnolog\u00edas DH se incorporan cada vez m\u00e1s a los ensayos cl\u00ednicos para facilitar nuevos flujos de trabajo y resultados de ensayos, disminuir la carga de los participantes, realizar operaciones rentables y acelerar el descubrimiento cient\u00edfico\u201d, concluyeron los investigadores.
