Consortium to develop evidence supporting the use of imaging Total Kidney Volume (TKV) as a prognostic biomarker that predicts the progression of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) to select patients likely to respond to therapy into clinical trials. It aims to replace the currently used measurement of glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Scientists will use the data collected to develop a disease progression model that will evaluate the relationship between TKV and the known complications of ADPKD, including rate of loss of kidney function, hypertension, gross hematuria, kidney stones, urinary tract infections, development of end-stage renal disease, and mortality. These analyses will be used to support the regulatory qualification of TKV as an accepted measure for assessing the progression of ADPKD in clinical trials in which new therapies are tested. PKDOC has the following goals: # Develop standard clinical data elements and definitions that are specific to ADPKD # Create a database of aggregated data from existing multiple, longitudinal, and well-characterized research registries maintained over decades by the leading institutions in ADPKD clinical investigation # Advance and harmonize the missions of regulatory agencies by creating tools that help with the evaluation of new pharmaceutical compounds # Develop a quantitative disease progression model to examine the linkage between TKV and disease outcomes

Consortium focused on developing computer and physical models of the airway system for patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Developing accurate models will better predict how asthma and COPD develop, since current methods can only assess the severity of disease. They aim to bridge the gaps in clinical management of airways-based disease by providing reliable models that predict disease progression and the response to treatment for each person with asthma or COPD. A data management platform provides a secure and sustainable infrastructure that semantically integrates the clinical, physiological, genetic, and experimental data produced with existing biomedical knowledge from allied consortia and public databases. This resource will be available for analysis and modeling, and will facilitate sharing, collaboration and publication within AirPROM and with the broader community. Currently the AirPROM knowledge portal is only accessible by AirPROM partners.

A clinical research information model for the integration of clinical research covering randomized clinical trials (RCT), case-control studies and database searches into the TRANSFoRm application development. TRANSFoRm clinical research is based on primary care data, clinical data and genetic data stored in databases and electronic health records and employs the principle of reusing primary care data, adapting data collection by patient reported outcomes (PRO) and eSource based Case Report Forms. CRIM was developed using the TRANSFoRm clinical use cases of GORD and Diabetes. Their use case driven approach consisted of three levels of modelling drawing heavily on the clinical research workflow of the use cases. Different available information models were evaluated for their usefulness to represent TRANSFoRm clinical research, including for example CTOM of caBIG, Primary Care Research Object Model (PRCOM) of ePCRN and BRIDG of CDISC. The PCROM model turned out to be the most suitable and it was possible to extend and modify this model with only 12 new information objects, 3 episode of care related objects and 2 areas to satisfy all requirements of the TRANSFoRm research use cases. Now the information model covers Good Clinical Practice (GCP) compliant research, as well as case control studies and database search studies, including the interaction between patient and GP (family doctor) during patient consultation, appointment, screening, patient recruitment and adverse event reporting.

A consortium that aims to transform cancer research through collaborative oncology trials that leverage the scientific and clinical expertise of the Big Ten universities. The goal is to align the conduct of cancer research through collaborative, hypothesis-driven, highly translational oncology trials that leverage the scientific and clinical expertise. The clinical trials that will be developed will be linked to molecular diagnostics, enabling researchers to understand what drives the cancers to grow and what might be done to stop them from growing. The consortium also leverages geographical locations and existing relationships among the cancer centers. One of the consortium's goals is to harmonize contracts and scientific review processes to expedite clinical trials. The consortium will only focus on phase 0 to II trials because larger trials - even a randomized phase II trial - are difficult to conduct at a single cancer center.

Consortium that created the capability to detect Adverse Drug Response (ADR) signals by creating the infrastructure for large-scale monitoring of drug safety using electronic health records (EHR). The platform leverages EHR''''s comprising demographics, drug use and clinical data of over 30 million patients from several European countries. Special attention was given to patient groups that are not routinely involved in clinical trials, for ethical or practical reasons (e.g. pregnant women, elderly people, people using many drugs simultaneously, and children). This project also studies and compares a number of different techniques that all aim to detect unexpected or disproportional rates of events. The algorithms that they studied originate not only from the field of (pharmaco)epidemiology, but also from fields such as bio-terrorism, machine learning, and classical signal detection. EU-ADR specific objectives are: To detect events, To relate these events to drugs, To develop hypothesis that explain adverse events, To detect adverse events earlier, and To avoid false positives. The web-based platform is available at https://bioinformatics.ua.pt/euadr/ EU-ADR has contributed to the ability to conduct better drug safety studies based on the re-use of healthcare data. By facilitating the early detection of adverse drug reactions, but also providing key information on populations at risk, potential drug interactions, potential underlying mechanisms and intervening pathways in adverse events, etc., the project will allow for improved and more complete information to be available for drug and healthcare delivery, leading to increased patient safety and its associated cost savings. The EU-ADR system can be considered as a complementary tool to already existing pharamcovigilance systems. Should the system be widespread in the long term, it has the potential to contribute to the development of future electronic health record systems, insofar as the expected benefits of these IT tools are only fully attainable when EHRs develop themselves in consistency, richness and formats that allow them to be subject of such tools. In anticipation, EU-ADR has been designed to be modular and scalable, so that different EHR databases (other than those participating in the Consortium) can be progressively enlisted in the future, adopt the software for data extraction and therefore become susceptible of exploitation by the system, for maximum global effect.

A consortium evaluating a new biomarker screening test that might help identify patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are unlikely to benefit from anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) medications. BATTER-UP will enroll around 1,000 patients being treated by one of several marketed anti-TNF RA drugs: Enbrel, Remicade, Humira, Simponi, or Cimzia. Through data analyses and predictive response modeling, the consortium aims to better understand which patients with RA will derive the greatest benefit from TNF inhibitors. The investigators in this observational study will attempt to validate an 8-gene biomarker set based on work by Biogen Idec researchers as likely to predict anti-TNF responsiveness in patients with RA. In preliminary results, the 8-gene biomarker set predicted with 89% accuracy individuals who did not reach European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) Disease Activity Score (DAS)-28 good response after 14 weeks of treatment. The 8 genes included in the screen are CLTB, MXRA7, CXorf52, COL4A3BP, YIPF6, FAM44A, SFRS2, and PGK1. Biological samples and clinical outcome information will be used to confirm and extend the utility of previously published biomarkers that can predict response to anti-TNF agents. These data may also generate new hypotheses for further testing. The BATTER-UP samples and data will be established as a reference set for investigation of personalized medicine in RA. The study will be a resource of DNA and other biological materials that can be investigated for biomarkers in the future as new technologies arise.

Consortium of 12 Biomedical sciences research infrastructure (BMS RI) partners to develop a shared e-infrastructure to allow interoperability between data and services in the biological, medical, translational and clinical domains (providing a complex knowledge environment comprising standards, ontologies, data and services) and thus strengthen biomedical resources in Europe. The BMS RIs are on the roadmap of the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures (ESFRI). Connecting several European research infrastructures brings a diversity of ethical, legal and security concerns including data security requirements for participating e-Infrastructures that are storing or processing patient-related data (or biosamples): EATRIS, ECRIN, BBMRI, EuroBioImaging and EMBL-EBI. In addition, INSTRUCT is interested in secure sample transport and in intellectual property rights; Infrafrontier stores high-throughput data from mice. BBMRI with its focus on the availability of biomaterials is currently emphasizing aspects like k-anonymity and metadata management for its data. Sharing of imaging data by Euro-BioImaging poses challenges with respect to anonymisation and intellectual property. Therefore, an ethical, regulatory and security framework for international data sharing that covers these diverse areas and different types of data (e.g. clinical trials data, mouse data, and human genotype and DNA sequence data) is of crucial importance. The outcomes will lead to real and sustained improvement in the services the biomedical sciences research infrastructures offer to the research community. Data curation and sample description will be improved by the adoption of best practices and agreed standards. Many improvements will emerge from new interactions between RIs created by data linkage and networking. Ensuring access to relevant information for all life science researchers across all BMS RIs will enable scientists to conduct and share cutting-edge research.

The Deciphering Developmental Disorders (DDD) study aims to find out if using new genetic technologies can help doctors understand why patients get developmental disorders. To do this we have brought together doctors in the 23 NHS Regional Genetics Services throughout the UK and scientists at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, a charitably funded research institute which played a world-leading role in sequencing (reading) the human genome. The DDD study involves experts in clinical, molecular and statistical genetics, as well as ethics and social science. It has a Scientific Advisory Board consisting of scientists, doctors, a lawyer and patient representative, and has received National ethical approval in the UK. Over the next few years, we are aiming to collect DNA and clinical information from 12,000 undiagnosed children in the UK with developmental disorders and their parents. The results of the DDD study will provide a unique, online catalogue of genetic changes linked to clinical features that will enable clinicians to diagnose developmental disorders. Furthermore, the study will enable the design of more efficient and cheaper diagnostic assays for relevant genetic testing to be offered to all such patients in the UK and so transform clinical practice for children with developmental disorders. Over time, the work will also improve understanding of how genetic changes cause developmental disorders and why the severity of the disease varies in individuals. The Sanger Institute will contribute to the DDD study by performing genetic analysis of DNA samples from patients with developmental disorders, and their parents, recruited into the study through the Regional Genetics Services. Using microarray technology and the latest DNA sequencing methods, research teams will probe genetic information to identify mutations (DNA errors or rearrangements) and establish if these mutations play a role in the developmental disorders observed in patients. The DDD initiative grew out of the groundbreaking DECIPHER database, a global partnership of clinical genetics centres set up in 2004, which allows researchers and clinicians to share clinical and genomic data from patients worldwide. The DDD study aims to transform the power of DECIPHER as a diagnostic tool for use by clinicians. As well as improving patient care, the DDD team will empower researchers in the field by making the data generated securely available to other research teams around the world. By assembling a solid resource of high-quality, high-resolution and consistent genomic data, the leaders of the DDD study hope to extend the reach of DECIPHER across a broader spectrum of disorders than is currently possible.

Moreover, based upon the talent and technical platform, consisting of Chinese Evidence-based Medicine Centre of Ministry of Health of China, Virtual Research Centre of Evidence-Based Medicine of Ministry of Education of China, Chinese Cochrane Centre, UK Cochrane Centre and International Clinical Epidemiology Network Resource and Training Centre in West China Hospital, Sichuan University (INCLEN CERTC), ChiCTR is responsible for providing consultations on trial design, central randomization service, guidance on the writing of clinical trial reports and relevant training. WHO takes the lead in establishing the global clinical trial registration system, which is agreed upon by governments from all over the world. There are both ethical and scientific reasons for clinical trial registration. Trial participants expect that their contributions to biomedical knowledge will be used to improve health care for everyone. Open access to information about ongoing and completed trials meets the ethical duty to trial participants, and promotes greater trust and public confidence in clinical research. Furthermore, trial registration ensures that the results of all trials can be tracked down and should help to reduce unnecessary duplication of research through greater awareness of existing trials and results. The mission of ChiCTR is to Unite clinicians, clinical epidemiologists, biostatisticians, epidemiologists and health care managers both at home and abroad, to manage clinical trials in a strict and scientific manner, and to promote their quality in China, so as to provide reliable evidences from clinical trials for health care workers, consumers and medical policy decision makers, and also to use medical resources more effectively to provide better service for Chinese people and all human beings. Any trial performed in human beings is considered as a clinical trial, and should be registered before its implementation. All the registered clinical trials will be granted a unique registration number by WHO ICTRP.
