Cambridge Cognition and ActiGraph Announce Partnership to Accelerate Adoption
of Digital Measurements for Central Nervous System Trials
Cambridge Cognition Holdings plc (AIM: COG), which develops and markets
digital solutions to assess brain health, is pleased to announce a new
strategic partnership with ActiGraph, a leading provider of wearable
technologies for clinical trials. The partnership will deliver a broad suite
of assessments to provide a fully rounded view of mental and physical
capabilities. With both companies holding leading positions in their
respective markets, it is anticipated that the co-promotion planned under the
agreement will support growth in market share in the future.
ActiGraph's Accelerant(TM) partnership program is designed to advance the use
of digital health technologies (DHTs) in clinical development by simplifying
CROs' and technology vendors' access to raw data streams. As part of this
strategic partnership, Cambridge Cognition and ActiGraph will combine their
collective expertise in digital data collection to enhance assessment
capabilities in CNS trials in areas where there is a large unmet need, such as
schizophrenia and dementia.
Cambridge Cognition offers accurate and sensitive touch-screen and voice-based
digital assessments of cognition and other brain health indicators that have
been based on over 30 years of innovation and scientific validation. The
Company's suite of e-clinical technology solutions can be used at home or
in-clinic, giving pharmaceutical companies and research institutions
flexibility to reliably capture a broad range of important clinical measures.
As well as being leaders in the collection of clinical insights for clinical
trials, both companies also lead in providing solutions for academic
researchers, enabling hundreds of research projects each year. The
companies' technologies have been used together by top 20 pharmaceutical
companies in clinical trials already. The combination of actigraphy data and
brain health assessments may enable more accurate multi-modal digital
biomarkers in the future.
Francesca Cormack, Chief Scientist, Cambridge Cognition, commented:
"CNS disorders are characterised by a host of heterogeneous symptoms which
impact daily life, but that are often inadequately addressed by existing
treatments. Our partnership with ActiGraph represents an exciting combination
of expertise in objective digital measures of actigraphy, speech and cognition
that will help accelerate the development of treatments for patients and
improve efficiency in clinical trials."
Christine Guo, Chief Scientific Officer, ActiGraph, commented:
"Digital health technologies give us the ability to collect data objectively
during a patient's everyday life. This is especially important in CNS
disorders where conventional assessments are prone to subjective biases. We
are excited about this partnership with Cambridge Cognition to provide
advanced clinical insights to study teams conducting CNS trials."
