abstract: 'Despite enormous advances in biomedical science, corresponding
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
improvements in health outcomes lag significantly. This is particularly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
true in the United States, where life expectancy trails far behind that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of other high-income countries. In addition, substantial disparities in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
life expectancy and other health outcomes exist as a function of race,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ethnicity, wealth, education, and geographic location. A major
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reformation of our national system for generating medical evidence-the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
clinical research enterprise-is needed to facilitate the translation of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
biomedical research into useful products and interventions. Currently,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
premarket systems for generating and evaluating evidence work reasonably
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
well, but the postmarket phase is disaggregated and often fails to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
answer essential questions that must be addressed to provide optimal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
clinical care and public health interventions for all Americans. Solving
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
these problems will require a focus on three key domains: (1) improving
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the integration of and access to high-quality data from traditional
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
clinical trials, electronic health records, and personal devices and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
wearable sensors; (2) restructuring clinical research operations to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
support and incentivize the involvement of patients and frontline
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
clinicians; and (3) articulating ethical constructs that enable
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
responsible data sharing to support improved implementation. Finally, we
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
must also address the systemic tendency to optimize individual
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
components of the clinical research enterprise without considering the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
effects on the system as a whole. Overcoming suboptimization by creating
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
incentives for integration and sharing will be essential to achieve more
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
timely and equitable improvement in health outcomes.'
