Medidata Solutions, Inc.’s Cloud And Mobile Technology Selected To Drive Collaborative, 10-Year Research In Pediatric Rheumatology

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Medidata (NASDAQ:MDSO), the leading global provider of cloud-based solutions for clinical research in life sciences, today announced that it has been selected to support the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry, a 10-year project to collect comprehensive data on pediatric rheumatic diseases and their treatments.

"While we’ve made huge progress in the last decade, 300,000 children and families in the US alone are affected by rheumatic diseases," said Laura Schanberg, MD, professor of pediatrics at Duke University and CARRA president and the principal investigator for the CARRA Registry, an observational study of children and adolescents with major rheumatic diseases. By powering data capture for the scalable informatics infrastructure of the CARRA Registry, the Medidata Clinical Cloud® will help CARRA develop a resource for patients, physicians and researchers seeking to learn more about pediatric rheumatic diseases, and, ultimately, drive better diagnostic and treatment approaches.
