Introducing: Clinical trials near you

This week, we’re launching a brand-new feature: Clinical trials near you.

In the Visible app, you can now view clinical trials that match your diagnosis and location, and reach out directly to researchers to take part.

Connecting more people with clinical trials is another way we can advance our collective understanding of complex illnesses. This helps accelerate the development of much-needed treatments.

Bringing more visibility to clinical trials

We know many patients want to contribute to research. Yet too often, opportunities are poorly advertised, difficult to access, or hard to understand. We want to change that.

That's why the Visible app now clearly displays relevant clinical trials based on your location and diagnosis. Each trial summary outlines the research goals, eligibility criteria, and how to get involved. We've also simplified your connection to researchers with pre-filled enrolment messages.

With over 200,000 users, we can meaningfully fast-track lengthy recruitment timelines for research studies. This is another step in our mission to help advance our understanding of these conditions and towards making these invisible illnesses, visible.

Find clinical trials near you in the Visible app. Select ‘Community’ and go to the ‘Research’ section.

Building the evidence base for change

Alongside our new clinical trials feature, we’re continuing our work to build the infrastructure that will help us research and better understand these conditions:

  • Visible data science: Our dedicated data science team is continuously developing innovative algorithms to measure, predict, and manage symptoms more effectively, from digital biomarkers to symptom flare-up predictions.
  • Collaborative studies: We host in-app research studies that give researchers valuable insights from Visible's anonymised user data. Recent examples include studies exploring the impact of the menstrual cycle, and ongoing research on how atmospheric conditions affect symptom severity (learn more here).
  • Supporting individual clinical trials: Behind the scenes, Visible’s wearable technology is being integrated into clinical trials, helping researchers to track participants’ health during treatments. Most recently, participants used Visible while testing a new antiviral treatment.

What's coming next?

We’re working on some exciting updates to the Visible app to make it even more personalized to your health and seamless to use. Upcoming updates include:

  • Automated stability scores (available soon for Visible Band 2.0 users)
  • Improved pacing visuals and information
  • More accurate heart rate zones

We also have sleep tracking in early access for Visible Band 2.0 users. You can enroll via the early access hub in the profile tab of your Visible app. If you don’t see the early access hub in your app, reach out to our support team in the app.

We can't wait to bring these improvements to you.

Onwards!

Note: We list all clinical trials programmatically from clinicaltrials.gov, meaning they have all been approved by an ethics approval board. However, we’re not affiliated with any individual trial listed.
