Clario and the University of Oxford's NeuroMetrology Lab Advance Parkinson's Disease Research with the Opal® Wearable Sensor System
Findings from Professor Antoniades' team demonstrate the high potential of movement analysis in PD research and pave the way for predictive and preventive healthcare. In a recent study, a 3-minute in-office assessment predicted fall risk for Parkinson's patients with 84–92% accuracy up to two years in advance and 78% accuracy up to five years in advance. These predictive capabilities may change how the disease is managed and provide greater opportunity to evaluate therapeutic efficacy in clinical studies.
"Our collaboration with Professor Antoniades and her team is an exciting step forward in Parkinson's research," said Ellen Street , Executive Vice President and General Manager, Digital Physiology at Clario. "The team's research combined with the unique capabilities of the Opal device can improve monitoring of disease progression and enable a greater ability to understand the effect of a drug candidate in Parkinson's patients. It perfectly embodies Clario's mission to transform lives by unlocking better evidence."
"We are excited to partner with Clario to enhance Parkinson's research using Opal's advanced movement analysis," said Professor Antoniades. "This collaboration will refine predictive models for fall risk and disease progression, improving patient outcomes. There is a crucial need for regulatory-approved digital movement endpoints in clinical trials to assess Parkinson's therapies accurately. Integrating validated, objective measures into drug development will enable precise evaluation and accelerate optimized treatments for patients."
This phase of the collaboration between Clario and the NeuroMetrology Lab will determine the usability and effectiveness of Opal data collected in remote settings via prescribed tasks in the home and real-world passive mobility monitoring, powered by Mobilise-D Digital Mobility Outcomes that Clario now offers.
