Protocol Information

Hopkins’ IRB eFormA: Free Text

Use Cases• Institutional portfolio view of ongoing

research Improvement of measurement and data

collection methods Inform process improvement initiatives Cross-institutional view: “big data” benefits

for science in general For research networking, research design,

enrollment• Process improvement

Protocol document/e-protocol authoring Collect complete and useful data up front

at the earliest opportunity Enter study description once and reuse for

IRB, CRMS, ClinicalTrials.gov, populating recruitment registries, scientific computation, etc.

• New IRB sharability Characterizing racial/SES Disparities in

research CT.gov management

More Use Cases• Systematic reviews:

Reduce searching and extractions by months to years

• Methodological decision support: Depends on understanding study intent and design

HSDB Goals/Architecture• “The Human Studies Database (HSDB) is a federated,

computable database of the design and results of human studies from multiple institutions. HSDB uses the Ontology of Clinical Research and common clinical vocabularies to standardize the storage of this information, so that researchers can precisely search and analyze across studies even if they come from different sources and address different clinical domains.

• “It is especially important that HSDB contain rich detail about study designs, because the use and interpretation of study data depends critically on the context in which those data were collected.”

• HSDB Wiki http://hsdbwiki.org/index.php/HSDB_Collaborative_Wiki

•A virtual computable scientific database of the design and results of all human studies in any clinical domain, involving any kind of data (e.g., quantitative, qualitative, imaging, genomic, etc)•Tools for investigators, comparative effectiveness researchers, policy makers and others to search and compare, visualize, analyze, and synthesize studies and study results•Data entry and data acquisition tools that allow institutions to capture HSDB data as part of their research workflows (e.g., IRB approval, clinical trial registration), so that multiple institutions can contribute HSDB data while maintaining local control and ownership of the data

The Ontology of Clinical Research (OCRe)

dhsi.med.jhmi.edu

OCRe Family

OCRe• OWL 2.0 at HSDBwiki.org, NCBO BioPortal• Models human studies for scientific query and

analysis• Domain

All studies in which humans, parts of humans, or groups of humans are enrolled, exposed, or observed

• ScopeAll clinical domains, all variable types (quant, qual,

imaging, genomics, etc)• Sim I, et al., AMIA CRI Summit 2010

Data Model

dhsi.med.jhmi.edu

•“ClinicalTrials.gov is a registry of federally and privately supported clinical trials conducted in the United States and around the world. ClinicalTrials.gov gives you information about a trial's purpose, who may participate, locations, and phone numbers for more details. This information should be used in conjunction with advice from health care

professionals.” •Study Type

• Granularity regarding outcomes• Single vs joint

Getting More Data

• Translate from CT.gov tags to HSDB tagsSimona Carini (UCSF), Karl Burke (JH)XSLT transform

• Pull all of CT.gov down

XSLT Mapper

Direction 1: Validations

• Semantic: Does the ontology capture the meanings we need? Is the typology correct?

• Querying: Can we query across corpora/institutions?

• Performance: Can we query fast enough?

Semantic Validation

• Get protocols• Get experts to “type” the design• Get others to use the HSDB typology• Calculate agreement

Querying & Performance: U Washington

• Put HSDB’ized protocols online

• Put MANY protocols online
