OXFORD, England– Sensyne Health plc (LSE: SENS) (“Sensyne” or the “Company” or the “Group”), the ethical Clinical AI company, today announces that it has reached a milestone of access to a combined clinical research, clinical trial and real world de-identified and anonymized dataset of over 60 million patients. This enlarged dataset results from both Sensyne’s investment in virtual clinical development company, Phesi Inc. in January 2021, and the progress made by Sensyne and Phesi in building their respective data platforms.

Between December 2020 and July 2021 Phesi grew its clinical research and clinical trial dataset from 13 million to 42 million patients through a concerted effort in acquiring and structuring data registries of de-identified data. At the same time, Sensyne, through its unique ethical Strategic Research Agreement (SRA) model that partners with healthcare systems, grew its real world patient dataset from 6 million to over 18 million patients.

The combined international dataset now contains a high quality, deep, longitudinal variety of structured de-identified and anonymized data, in over 4,000 indications including rare diseases.

The combined dataset, together with Sensyne’s machine learning expertise, provides deeper understanding of clinical trial and real world patient populations which can improve the ability to select the right patients for synthetic control arm clinical trials as comparators to traditional clinical studies.

Specifically, the data can help in identifying relationships between one disease and another and help in building predictive models which contribute towards the development of synthetic control arms, creating early warning systems for drugs in development by helping indicate the drugs that may or may not work. Such activity can de-risk trials, lower life science R&D costs and reduce the time to market for effective drugs. Also, critically, it can begin to limit the number of patients enrolled in clinical trials that are exposed to placebos.
