Overview

The Mahalo Unified Data Platform is a data management solution designed for clinical research organizations (CROs) that conduct multiple simultaneous studies. It addresses the common problem of underutilized clinical data by providing tools to standardize, normalize, and repurpose study data across projects and collaborating organizations.

The platform stores both eClinical and Digital Therapeutics (DTx) data within a single normalized database architecture, reducing the need for separate data integration or data warehousing infrastructure. It is part of Mahalo Health's broader digital health platform, which also covers eClinical tools and DTx app development.

Data Reuse and Cross-Study Value

  • Researchers typically use approximately 85% of clinical data for a single study, leaving significant data underutilized
  • Wearables and connected devices generate large volumes of data that may not be fully used within a single study
  • The platform supports repurposing data from previous studies for new research projects
  • Data from multiple studies can be combined to surface patterns not visible within a single dataset
  • Other researchers may access data for novel uses when sharing permissions are granted

Data Standardization and Normalization

  • The platform provides a standardized database schema across all stored study data
  • Each data field has associated units to maintain consistency
  • Biomarker data from similar connected devices is normalized within the platform
  • Data quality validations are available for review

Permission-Based Access and Sharing

  • User permissions are applied by default to secure data
  • Permissions can be configured to allow access to some or all study data
  • Data can be shared internally within an organization at varying levels of access
  • Selected study data can be shared externally with collaborating researchers

Unified eClinical and DTx Data Storage

  • A single normalized database architecture holds all collected data
  • Eliminates the need for separate data integration and data warehousing systems
  • Provides one system to manage all data collected across studies
  • Enables combination of eClinical and DTx data to support new research directions

Mahalo Health maintains compliance documentation including Good Clinical Practice (GCP), ISO compliance certificates, HIPAA compliance certificates, GDPR adherence, and a responsible disclosure policy. The platform is available to organizations across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific regions.
