Belgian startup Tools4Patient recently presented data showing its novel technology Placebell©™ predicted placebo response in a Phase 2 randomized controlled trial (RCT) for osteoarthritis (OA). Placebell is the first robust technology using predictive modeling that is proven to reduce the impact of the placebo response in clinical trials under real-world conditions. Data from the Phase 2 RCT, “Predicting the Placebo Response in OA to Improve the Precision of the Treatment Effect Estimation,” was presented as a late-breaking abstract at the OARSI Connect Virtual World Congress on Osteoarthritis on April 29, 2021. This innovation by Tools4Patient is a major advancement for increasing clinical study success and reducing drug development costs and timelines.
The addition of Delphine to T4P’s expanding team reflects the company’s commitment to building and maintaining a robust quality program, which is central to its goal of being a trusted partner providing predictive tools to biopharmaceutical companies. Delphine works with T4P’s operational and scientific groups to support software and clinical-related activities for programs conducted with sponsors or as part of the company’s R&D activities.
