Abstract

The wealth of data generated in the clinical research and healthcare domain are still underused due to their high volume and heterogeneity which constitute them isolated islands of knowledge with high complexity of interlinking and potential mining. Meanwhile, the enormous funds dedicated in clinical research and healthcare by the industry and governments still do not meet their goals, leaving millions of patients years behind the development of effective treatment, which could save or improve their lives. This paper presents the PONTE platform, a set of tools and services aiming at interlinking and mining the big data in the clinical research and healthcare domain for the efficient, scientifically-valid design of clinical trials and the effective and fast subject recruitment. The use of the platform with real world scenarios by highly experienced clinical experts is also presented, as well as the evaluation results.
