Mobile Apps Involvement with Clinical Trials

Mobisoft Infotech is aware of the progression of medical apps for iPhone, Android and other

smartphone platforms. Among these applications are a subject of clinical trials that assist in

capturing and reporting data for doctors and patients to understand hundreds of health

conditions. Here are just few examples:

Clinical Trial Seek-By Novartis Oncology

Identifying a relevant cancer clinical trial near you based on simple information that you enter in just

a few finger taps has never been easier. Clinical Trials seek is an app developed by Novartis to help

oncology patients and healthcare professionals find reliable clinical trials which are appropriate to

the patients specific health conditions. It is available on iOS and Android platforms. The app uses

the National Institute of Health database (clinicaltrials.gov) as their source, so users know they are

receiving credible information. Searching for a clinical trial on this app is tailor made to the patient’s

needs by using search queries like condition, treatment, location, phase of the trial, sponsor of the

trial, gender, as well as age group of the trial. The app also uses GPS so users can simply see

clinical trials on a map in their area.

Study Scavenger

Participating in a clinical research study can be rewarding in that you can contribute to

understanding diseases and how they affect others. But how do you know which study is right for

you? Study scavenger is the first bilingual app available on iOS that allows patients to search for

clinical trials in their area which are specific to their needs. A user can search for trials using their

GPS location or use an advanced search to receive results. Under the advanced search, users can

search by age, gender, distance willing to travel, type of research facility, health condition and

minimum stipend. The app thoroughly explains the process of a clinical trial and what the 3 different

phases of a trial mean. The registration feature allows for the user to get notifications of new trials

that are formed. The app also provides useful educational information about research studies, the

drugs or treatments used and how they are approved for testing.

Lilly Oncology-Clinical Trial Resource

Lilly Oncology has developed a searchable app available for iOS, Blackberry, and Android platforms,

which helps healthcare professionals find oncology trials that are enrolling new patients by disease,

state, molecule being studied, study phase, country, state and keyword. The app provides details on

all trials globally or trials that are specific only to Lilly Oncology. A great feature of the app is that it

includes a searchable section of outside resources for healthcare providers such as the American

Association for Cancer Research and the American Cancer Society. Another feature of the app

MedTrust

For prospective clinical trial applicants, the search for an ethical and reliable clinical trial can be

daunting. MedTrust by Glaxo Smith Kline Oncology is an app that can be used as a search tool to

find reliable information about clinical research trials. You can quickly locate Clinical Trials that are

recruiting patients within 150 miles of your location as well as view search results of Clinical Trials on

a map relative to your location. You do an advanced text search to locate Clinical Trials by any of the

following criteria: Search term, patient gender, age, Clinical Trial Phase. Each Clinical Trial record

contains the complete details available including the summary, description, patient conditions,

interventions, recruitment status, number of patients to be enrolled, patient inclusion criteria, patient

exclusion criteria, contact information and more.
