Evinova and Lothar Medical Partner to Modernise Respiratory Clinical Trials with Unified Digital Solution
核心洞察
Evinova (搜索) and Lothar Medical (搜索) announced a strategic partnership to integrate Evinova's Unified Trial Solution with Lothar Medical's three-in-one respiratory diagnostic devices.
The collaboration aims to support faster patient recruitment, high-fidelity endpoint capture, and reduced operational burden in respiratory clinical trials.
Lothar Medical (搜索)'s device combines FeNO, spirometry, and oscillometry in a single point-of-care platform for real-time pulmonary function testing.
Evinova (搜索), a global leader in AI-native clinical development technology, has announced a strategic partnership with Lothar Medical (搜索) to help transform the execution of respiratory clinical trials globally. Under the agreement, Evinova's Unified Trial Solution will integrate with Lothar Medical's respiratory devices to support a more connected, data-rich trial experience for sponsors, sites, and patients. Evinova's Unified Trial Solution is a globally scaled, GxP-validated digital platform designed to streamline traditional, hybrid, and decentralised clinical trials (DCTs), currently in use by more than 4,000 sites in 54 countries.
Lothar Medical (搜索) is a pioneering medical device company that integrates three respiratory measurements—FeNO, spirometry, and oscillometry—into one device, enabling real-time pulmonary function testing in clinical research and care settings.
Benefits for Respiratory Clinical Development Teams
For clinical development teams tasked with designing complex respiratory protocols, such as those for asthma (搜索), COPD (搜索), bronchiectasis (搜索), or interstitial lung disease (搜索) (ILD), the partnership provides several distinct advantages.
Faster patient recruitment. Respiratory diseases are among the leading causes of death globally, yet diagnosis often occurs late in the patient journey. As novel treatments increasingly focus on earlier diagnosis and intervention, clinical trials can face recruitment challenges when real-world diagnosis does not align with trial entry requirements. Combining spirometry, oscillometry, and FeNO in one device can support patient screening and diagnosis, helping teams identify eligible participants more efficiently.
High-fidelity endpoint and diagnostic capture. By combining Lothar Medical (搜索)'s expertise in respiratory diagnostics with Evinova (搜索)'s robust platform infrastructure, teams can secure continuous, high-quality primary and secondary endpoint data—such as FEV1, PEF, FeNO, and symptom diaries—plus exploratory endpoints such as large and small airway resistance and reactance, without data silos.
Reduced site and patient operational burden. A three-in-one device can reduce the need for multiple devices and workflows, easing operational complexity for both sites and patients. Advanced digital coaching and automated validation checks in the interface can also support correct use and improve data quality.
Leadership Perspectives
"Partnering with Evinova (搜索) marks an important milestone for Lothar Medical (搜索) and our commitment to advancing respiratory healthcare. By combining our innovative respiratory diagnostic capabilities with Evinova's digital clinical trial expertise, we can make clinical research more efficient, patient-focused and data-driven. Together, we have an opportunity to accelerate the development of personalised respiratory care and ultimately improve outcomes for patients," said David Markus Thomas, Managing Director of Lothar Medical.
"We are thrilled to collaborate with Lothar Medical (搜索) to bring the next era of digital clinical development," said Cristina Duran, President of Evinova (搜索). "The partnership between Lothar Medical and Evinova represents an exciting step forward for respiratory clinical research. By combining innovative respiratory diagnostics with cutting-edge digital trial capabilities, we have the opportunity to redefine how respiratory studies are delivered and accelerate the development of more personalised care for patients," said Tim Harrison, CMO of Evinova.
