New hub enhances clinical trial capability

NHS Digital is working with the University of Oxford, Microsoft and IBM to develop a hub that aims to revolutionise the way in which clinical trials are delivered – providing foundation services to determine whether a clinical trial is feasible, and to support better planning and delivery of clinical trials in the UK

NHS DigiTrial, the NHS Health Data Research Hub for Clinical Trials, is one of seven new hubs designed to enable cutting-edge research for health discoveries. 

Led by Health Data Research UK, they are the first of their kind in the world and aim to improve the lives of people with debilitating conditions by making health data more accessible and user-friendly for research, while maintaining strict controls around data security and privacy.

NHS DigiTrial will initially provide a foundation service to return cohort feasibility queries and support patient enrolment and communication, and long-term follow-up of a cohort.
