Medidata, GSK Collaborate on Mobile Health Initiative
Medidata announced the completion of a method development project conducted in partnership with GlaxoSmithKline plc
Medidata, a global provider of cloud-based solutions, announced the completion of a method development project conducted in partnership with GlaxoSmithKline plc (GSK) to evaluate the impact of unifying mobile health (mHealth) devices with cloud-based technologies in a clinical trialsetting.
The collaborative project took place at GSK’s Human Performance Lab. They provided program participants with two wearable devices to continuously measure vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG) data and activity levels. In addition, participants used Medidata Patient Cloud®, a mobile app for patient-reported outcomes and they carried smartphones that captured data from the mHealth devices, which then pulled this data into the Medidata Clinical Cloud® and then mapped it to the clinical record.
The program demonstrated that mHealth technologies have the power to comprehensively collect large volumes of objective data that is reliable, secure and analysis-ready, and provides real-time, continuous insight into the well being of patients. All of the data collected was audited and is compliant with FDA regulations. Additionally, the effort indicated that mobile devices can support the long-term goal
Medidata intends to use the technology infrastructure developed for this initiative as a model to enable new Phase I–IV mHealth clinical trials, which the company will be supporting for clients over the coming months.

Behind the Buzz: Why Clinical Research Leaders Flock to SCOPE Summit
February 7th 2025In this episode, we meet with Micah Lieberman, Executive Conference Director for SCOPE Summit (Summit for Clinical Ops Executives) at Cambridge Innovation Institute. We will dive deep into the critical role of collaboration within the clinical research ecosystem. How do we bring together diverse stakeholders—sponsors, CROs, clinical trial tech innovators, suppliers, patients, sites, advocacy organizations, investors, and non-profits—to share best practices in trial design, program planning, innovation, and clinical operations? We’ll explore why it’s vital for thought leaders to step beyond their own organizations and learn from others, exchanging ideas that drive advancements in clinical research. Additionally, we’ll discuss the pivotal role of scientific conferences like SCOPE Summit in fostering these essential connections and collaborations, helping shape the future of clinical trials. Join us as we uncover how collective wisdom and cross-industry partnerships are transforming the landscape of clinical research.
