Translational Studies

Many translational research efforts are focused at biomarker validation, precipitating an increase in translational studies. These studies involve robust protocol management similar to clinical trials, but unlike clinical trials, are often adaptive in nature and not FDA regulated.

These studies lead to increased specimen counts to ensure strong statistical support and rich specimen annotations to diminish confounding factors. They also require the need to fuse complex clinical and research data sets together for analytical purposes.

GenoLogics offers an informatics solution for translational study management which:

  • Manages a multitude of patients and studies of different types
  • Allows for patient information to be entered at remote sites via online interfaces
  • Administers web-based patient / participant questionnaires
  • Integrates information from many clinical sources and support data accessibility
  • Supports HIPAA, patient consent and IRB approval processes
  • Enables centralized online querying and sample requests
  • Integrates clinical and science data

An informatics solution for translational validation studies needs to mirror the end-to-end process from collecting clinical data and accessing biospecimens, to managing science experiments and enabling analysis. GenoLogics provides the informatics platform and tools to seamlessly manage this process and create the environment necessary to conduct translational research.

To learn more about how adopting an informatics platform can address some of those challenges, listen to the podcast Enabling Translational Research Informatics or Manage Your Biorepositories.
