Digital Biomarkers: How do we get the quality real-world datasets we need for effective clinical trials?

Despite the wave of digital innovation in pharma and the need for real world data and de-centralised trials, the use of wearables and the adoption of digital biomarkers is still relatively low. There is great potential for wearables to increase the quality and quantity of trial data, to exploit novel endpoints and to improve patient engagement and retention. We examine the reasons for the slow uptake and identify effective approaches to improving adoption.
