Let’s Automate

Clinical Research

We want the FDA to use artificial intelligence to make clinical research radically faster, cheaper, and more precise.

2 billion people are suffering from over 7000 diseases.

– Current methods of clinical research are:

Slow

Even after a treatment is discovered, it takes at least a decade to get it to patients. This means millions of people continue to suffer and die while they’re waiting.

Expensive

It costs over a billion dollars on average to get a drug approved. It can cost over $48k per patient in a clinical trial. This means tons of life-saving treatments don’t have enough money to make it to market.

Imprecise

85% of people with depression are excluded from clinical trials. They’re excluded if they use drugs or alcohol, other medications, have other health conditions. As a result, treatments almost never work as well for real patients as they do in trials.

Small

Clinical trials are also very small. Sometimes they have as few as 20 participants. So they don’t have enough statistical power to detect the effects of drugs on rare side effects or subgroups of people. This also makes it impossible to detect the full range of possible benefits of a treatment.

Imagine having a personal scientist that could collect data to determine the precise effects of every food and drug on every aspect of health and exponentially drive down the cost of clinical research.

We want a free robot clinical researcher that will:

Import Your Data

The FDAi Agent should use web-based autonomous AI agents to automatically import your health records, wearable data, and receipts for food, drug, and supplement purchases. If you suffer from chronic illness, it should ask you about your symptoms, diet, and treatments just as a doctor would.

Optimize Your Health and Happiness

It should analyze all this data to reveal precisely how much any given food, drug, or supplement specifically improves or worsens every symptom. Using this data it should do a precise cost-benefit analysis to determine the ideal intake of every food and drug to maximize your long term health and happiness.

Publish Outcome Labels

We currently have no long-term data on the full effects of 2000 chemicals in our diet and the majority of nutritional supplements. So the FDAi should combine everyone’s data to create global-scale studies on the precise effects of all foods, drugs, and supplements. It should use this data to publish Outcome Labels listing the percentage change from baseline for all health outcomes.

Automate Clinical Trials

80% of clinical trials fail to lack of enrollment. Yet, less than 1% of people with chronic diseases are participating in trials. So, if you’re still suffering and none of the suggestions have worked, the FDAi agent should automatically find the most promising new treatment for you, make it effortless to enroll in a trial, get the drug shipped to you, schedule all your lab tests, and regularly collect data on the benefits and side-effects.

Solution πŸ‘‰

Make clinical research 100X faster, cheaper, and more precise by giving everyone an AI agent for:

Automated
Data Collection

An AI agent could automatically import data from medical records, food, medications, and supplement receipts, wearable devices, health apps, and ask you to rate symptom severity over time.

Automated
Data Analysis

It could then apply causal inference analysis to calculate the effects of all foods and drugs on symptom severity. It could then aggregate everyone’s data and automatically publish this research for everyone.

Automated
Decision-Support

Powered by millions of scientific studies, the AI would be able to precise cost-benefit analysis to determine the best thing you could do at any given time to treat or prevent disease.

Automated
Clinical Trials

It could then apply causal inference analysis to calculate the effects of all foods and drugs on symptom severity. It could then aggregate everyone’s data and automatically publish this research for everyone.

Do you think we should automate clinical research to find cures for the 2 billion people suffering from chronic diseases?
