SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- EverythingALS, a patient-focused non-profit that brings together people living with ALS, caregivers, physicians, researchers, and pharmaceutical companies to collaborate on an open innovation platform using cutting-edge technologies and data science to improve progression measurements for neurological disease like Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), has initiated a new study, The Radcliff Study, with partners in the quest to find a diagnosis, treatment, and cure for ALS. EverythingALS is teaming up with Aural Analytics, a leader in clinical-grade speech analytics, FeetMe, a medical device company that produces smart and connected insoles for improved running, walking and gait analysis, ZEPHYRx, a leading provider of end-to-end remote respiratory monitoring solutions, and a major pharmaceutical company. The Radcliff Study is a novel research-as-a-feasibility study to inform the likelihood of success for a pre-competitive collaboration focused on developing an end-to-end digital alternative for the ALSFRS-R that supports clinically meaningful outcomes tailored for use in ALS. There is not one test or procedure to establish the diagnosis of ALS and there is also no known cure or treatment options available.

Key Points: 
  • The Radcliff Study is a multidisciplinary study focused on gait analysis, pulmonary function testing, and speech analytics to make strides towards a digital biomarker.
  • The study uses AI, remote patient monitoring technologies, and algorithms to determine possibly clinically meaningful characteristics for persons living with ALS.
  • "EverythingALS is excited to work with Aural Analytics, FeetMe and ZEPHYRx on this unique study," said Indu Navar, Founder of the Peter Cohen Foundation and CEO of EverythingALS.
  • "We're thrilled to be a part of this research study as spirometry is an important indicator of ALS disease progression."
