Making Clinical Trials Convenient, Inclusive and Equitable

We imagined a consumer-grade digital experience that would eliminate the burdens of participating in clinical trials. We imagined improving representation across groups underrepresented in today’s scientific evidence base — our rural communities, our urban safety net communities, minority groups that have been historically exploited by medical research, our vulnerable populations, our veterans and military families, our women of childbearing age — by realigning incentives and gamifying study protocols. We imagined transforming time-to-endpoint and time-to-market for new therapeutics by providing realtime return-of-value for all stakeholders: patients and sponsors, clinical investigators and caregivers. We imagined biomedical equity for next-generation trials and outcomes.

From Pandemic Project to Product Marketplace

Biomedical Equity for Next-Generation Trials and Outcomes (Project BENTO) was launched May 2020 at the onset of COVID-19 pandemic. New ways of working remotely was been especially challenging for clinical trials and the patient communities they support. Lupus Therapeutics, the clinical operations subsidiary of the Lupus Research Alliance, was ready to adapt quickly and collaborated with its Board of Directors to pilot technology solutions that would enable new forms of community engagement — designed by patients, optimized for inclusion, powered by Bento trust technology (click below to watch No Boundaries: The Lupus Bento is Here to Help).

Bento Biology Platforms is bringing the clinical trial to patient doorsteps for contactless data collection with a software-defined solution to manage, treat and prevent disease for patient communities.
