“This first-of-its-kind patient recruitment platform integrates Virgo’s ability to analyze endoscopy videos to identify patients using an industry-recognized artificial intelligence algorithm. Then, potential candidates receive rapid outreach from the 83bar clinical contact center to educate them about local clinical trial options and screenings based upon specific indication criteria,” said Bob Baurys, 83bar CEO.
Craig Darling, Virgo VP of Life Sciences, added, “This new technology platform can accelerate study recruitment by connecting only protocol-qualified and ready-to-act patients to clinical trial sites and keeping patients engaged to prevent costly dropout.”
The Constellation Platform connects the dots with integrated patient journey management:
- Analyzes endoscopy video for inclusion/exclusion criteria
- Identifies qualifying inclusion profile
- Contacts patient with a clinical agent (on behalf of physician’s office)
- Educates and screens patient
- Prepares informed consent
- Schedules back for evaluation
