It was a joy to host our leadership team Jeremy Wyatt, Michael Kicak, CPA, CGMA and Christian McCants in India. Team India was thrilled to meet each other and engage with the leadership, even if only for a short time. A heartfelt thank you to Jeremy, Mike, and Chris for taking the time to connect with everyone and for answering all our questions—whether insightful or just plain fun! A big shoutout to Swapan Gupta for being the voice of reason amidst the excitement. Special thanks to Madhumitha Jothirajan for being the perfect host, ensuring gifts were in place while juggling a million other things.  Huge appreciation to Ramya Nelli for making the office look fantastic and to Ali Imran Alangayam for all the support behind the scenes. We certainly missed Scott Ginnetti :(. Looking forward to more such inspiring meetups! Being the undeniable movie buff that I am, I couldn’t resist creating a little memory capsule!

Last month, we held our 3rd ActiGraph Digital Data Summit, bringing together clinical researchers who are passionate about advancing the use digital health to improve clinical research. 👣 It was exciting to see the work presented and the conversations it inspired take a clear step forward. 💡 In this issue, we give some examples of this exciting progress using digital health technology to provide unique clinical insights in areas such as immunology and immunotherapy. We also share more details on how ActiGraph's expanded technology and scientific products support our customers more broadly through patient-focused digital data. #DigitalHealthTechnology #Immunology #AutoimmuneDisease #Immunotherapy #Oncology #CancerCare #ADDS2025 #NHANES #HIMSS25 #MDA2025

A single rare disease affects a small percent of the population, but collectively there are over 6,000 different rare diseases. These rare diseases affect over 300 million people worldwide, which equals the population of the world's 3rd largest country. 🖐️Today, we'd like to contribute to raising awareness of rare diseases and the impact they have on patients' lives, and thank everyone who is working towards helping to advance treatments for these conditions. Learn more about the impact of rare diseases at 🔗https://hubs.la/Q038RrBg0 Many of the FDA's Patient-Focused Drug Development Meeting Reports summarize the views of patients with rare diseases, including what symptoms have the most significant impact on their lives and their perspectives on treatments. Understanding what matters to patients with rare diseases helps us develop more effective and meaningful treatments. 📚 In our Patient-Focused Digital Measures Library, we've summarized the most significant symptoms reported by patients and how digital health technologies can measure these meaningful aspects of health to help evaluate new treatments for rare diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), myotonic dystrophy (DM), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), Kennedy's disease, narcolepsy, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and inclusion body myositis: https://hubs.la/Q038Rs1l0 We hope to continue bringing awareness to the impact of rare diseases and help to advance therapies for patients with these conditions. #RareDiseaseDay2025

🏃♂️ Physical activity is one of the key factors in sustaining weight loss, preserving muscle mass, and achieving long-term health benefits. Read the recent article in pharmaphorum by Christine Cong Guo to learn more about how adding objective measures of physical activity to clinical trials can help us better understand the influence of medication and lifestyle factors on weight loss and muscle mass, providing more robust data on treatment effects. 📉 🔗https://hubs.ly/Q038sMp40 #Obesity #DrugDevelopment #GLP1 #PhysicalActivity #DigitalMeasures #WeightLoss #MuscleMass #HealthBenefits

Did you know? The number of sensor-based digital health technologies (DHTs) in industry-sponsored interventional trials has increased 10-fold over the last 5 years! This observation from the Library of Digital Endpoints (organized by Digital Medicine Society (DiMe)) speaks to the value that DHTs bring to clinical trials. If you’re interested in using DHTs in your study, the V3+ framework is an excellent resource. Recently updated to also include usability validation, this new publication describes a pragmatic approach to ensuring that sensor-based DHTs can be used optimally at scale by diverse users.

#ActiGraph Senior Data Scientist Michael Pettinati dives into the promise and the challenges of immunotherapy treatments, and how digital health technology can help us tackle a major challenge in immunotherapy – cytokine release syndrome. Read the full article here 🔗 https://hubs.la/Q037BNBw0 ✅ He shares lessons learned in specific studies, including critical insights into operational and technical considerations for collecting high-quality data and how to better standardize data collection. *️⃣ These lessons are important because they help us advance the use of DHTs to provide a deeper understanding of immunotherapies, more uniform care, and enable algorithm development that can increase access to these treatments for patients with cancer and immunological diseases. #CytokineReleaseSyndrome #CRS #Immunotherapy #CancerCare #Oncology #Immunology #DigitalHealthTechnology #DataScience

#ActiGraph is proud to participate in the De-Risking Cytokine Release Syndrome project with DATAcc by Digital Medicine Society (DiMe).    ⚠️ Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) is a severe and potentially life-threatening side effect of immunotherapy, a treatment that uses a person's immune system to fight cancer. Digital health technologies can help detect CRS more quickly and mitigate the risk it poses to patients' health.     🔓 The resources developed by project partners are now available! This collection is an important step to advance the application of digital tools that could help detect CRS more effectively, with the goal of improving patient safety and outcomes.  See more details below, and access the new resources here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eKFbSXvd #CytokineReleaseSyndrome #CRS #Immunotherapy #CancerCare #Oncology #DigitalHealthTechnologies

We would like to thank all of the speakers, sponsors, poster presenters, and attendees for making the 3rd ActiGraph Digital Data Summit a successful event! It was an honor to host digital health leaders from across the world, who came together for multiple productive days of sharing data and lessons learned. Discussions about where specifically we go from here and how we get there were inspired by - ✴️ Presentations describing studies with many participants in healthy populations and in people with diseases like #ALS or #cancer that showed high compliance rates with wearable digital health technology ✴️ Data from studies analyzing which specific digital measures are meaningful and insights on collecting that data in specific disease states such as #NMD and #PAH ✴️ Guidance from a range of perspectives on engaging with regulators when incorporating DHTs into clinical trials ✴️ Using data from large-scale population studies and novel, AI-driven analysis techniques to refine and advance algorithms used to derive digital measures We believe these conversations and ensuing collaborations are needed to help drive digital innovation in clinical research forward, and are grateful to spend time with this passionate community. We look forward to sharing more takeaways from the conference in the coming weeks! #ADDS2025 #DigitalHealthTechnology #Wearables #DigitalMeasures #DigitalEndpoints #ClinicalResearch #ClinicalTrials #Collaboration
