Biomarker data management is a key step in every clinical bioinformatics study. Approximately 40% of the overall analysis time is dedicated to these tasks, which are crucial for the quality of the overall analysis.
Biomarker data management involves the integration and consistency checking of data collected from different domains. These can range from patient data provided by the clinics, to data generated in the lab by biological analysis platforms. The data management solutions developed by Quartz Bio allow to flexibly integrate data from different origins and formats. Consitency checks are then performed by analysts with a biotechnological knowledge of the data. All the data management processes are documented, auditable and reproducible. Robust data management ensures that the data analyses are developed on a solid ground.
Biomarker data management involves different steps:
Quality Control
Biomarker data are heterogeneous. Technology-specific quality controls must be applied in order to identify possible sources of bias that could impact the analysis. The biology behind the assay and the sample logistics in clinical settings are two of the most important factors that can impact the biomarker data quality.
Each drug discovery program and each company has its own processes. Furthermore, it is not rare that multiple partners and collaborators are involved.
At Quartz Bio, we can also bring our biological and computational expertise to customize methods and applications to your own needs to facilitate data management and subsequent analysis.
Non exhaustive list of Methods development projects developed at Quartz Bio:
In every study, the design is key. It is particularly true in exploratory biomarker studies, where statistical power cannot be controlled and where sample logisitics can have an important impact on input data quality and availability.
Quartz Bio data scientists have analysed numerous biomarker studies and have experienced many cases where design flaws impacted negatively the analysis.
This expertise is routinely used a posteriori in the Quality Control process, but could also better be used before generating the data, i.e. at the design stage. Thus, reviewing the exploratory part of the Clinical Study Protocol and affiliated documents such as Analytical Plans or Manual of Operations could permit optimising the biomarker study design.
