Bracket announced the acquisition of mProve Health, a provider of mobile technologies for life science companies. The acquisition centers on both companies' support of tech-enabled clinical trials that improve patient engagement through the use of "Bring Your Own Device" mobile tools in clinical trials.
Early-to-market with Electronic Clinical Outcomes Assessments (eCOA) and the first Randomization and Trial Supply Management (RTSM) mobile application, Bracket is at the forefront of digitization in clinical trials. Bracket helps biopharmaceutical sponsors and CROs increase the power of their data and identified a need to bring greater accuracy through technology. Included in mProve's suite of regulatory compliant mHealth solutions is mPulse, an Electronic Patient-Reported Outcomes (ePRO) platform for enabling data collection via standalone native mobile apps or SMS text. Other apps will enable communication with doctors and provide reminders and education.
"We are excited to announce the acquisition of mProve as we take a major step forward in our support of tech-enabled clinical trials," said Jeff Kinell, CEO of Bracket. "As an early adopter of mHealth and BYOD, we recognize how these movements empower patients to become partners in their trials, and subsequently, deliver more accurate PRO and increase the likelihood of a successful trial."
