Miller and Amy Price.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are many questions over who should have access to health data and who owns them.\u00a0 These issues are complicated in clinical trials where data are co-produced by participants, researchers, clinicians, funders, and industry. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/bernardmarr\/2018\/05\/21\/how-much-data-do-we-create-every-day-the-mind-blowing-stats-everyone-should-read\/#2b941bc360ba\">Ninety percent of all data ever produced were produced in the past two years<\/a>, raising novel ethical questions about the responsibilities of data collectors and the rights of participants. [1] These questions are particularly acute for clinical trial data, which hold life-saving potential and can advance patient and population health.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While many advocate for <a href=\"https:\/\/jamanetwork.com\/journals\/jamanetworkopen\/fullarticle\/2719130\">enhanced transparency and agency around how health data from electronic health records, wearables,<\/a> [2]<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">and web searches (70-80% of adults search the internet with their health-related questions) are used, this hasn\u2019t been the dominant approach for clinical trial data. Most stakeholders, from patients, [3] to funders,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/29874542\"> agree that trial data should be broadly accessible for secondary research purposes<\/a>, with some even arguing that they <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/22948695\">are a public good<\/a>. [4] While expectations around clinical trial data have moved towards greater levels of openness and a sense that data sharing should be a routine part of clinical research,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmj.com\/content\/347\/bmj.f4794\"> trial data can remain hidden. <\/a>[5]\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We owe it to patients participating in research to make the data they help <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nejm.org\/doi\/10.1056\/NEJMe1601087\">generate widely and responsibly available. <\/a>[6] The majority desire data sharing, viewing it as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/29874542\">a natural extension of their commitment to advance scientific research<\/a>. [3] Data sharing in clinical research is critical to help encourage a host of public health benefits, including facilitating independent re-analysis of data and an improved understanding of a medicine\u2019s safety and efficacy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Data sharing can also <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">accelerate innovation and the development of new cures and therapies, as scientists learn and build on each other\u2019s work. <a href=\"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/ve\/article\/2\/1\/vew016\/1753554\">Data sharing during the 2014 Ebola virus outbreak<\/a> in West Africa, for example, helped scientists rapidly trace the origins of the virus and help control the epidemic. [7,8] Research duplication can also be reduced when resources are pooled through data sharing. For instance, sharing placebo or comparator arm trial data can decrease the number of trial participants needed for future trials of similar compounds. Placebo and comparator arm data have been successfully pooled for use in other trials from the Datasphere Project, the Coalition Against Major Diseases, and ePlacebo. [9]<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To resolve this challenge, researchers from Yale University, Stanford University, and Bioethics International, supported by Arnold Ventures, created and validated measures to define good data sharing practices and to benchmark data-sharing practices by pharmaceutical companies. The researchers partnered with key stakeholders including the public and end-users and they collaborated to build the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bioethicsinternational.org\/good-pharma-scorecard\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Good Pharma Scorecard<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (GPS), an annual ranking of new FDA approved drugs and their pharmaceutical company sponsors on their ethics performance, including clinical trial transparency and data-sharing criteria. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/24088150\">Ranking and rating companies<\/a> have long been an evidence-based method for improving corporate behaviors on critical social responsibility goals. [10,11]<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmj.com\/content\/366\/bmj.l4217\">A new research paper<\/a> has found that the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bioethicsinternational.org\/good-pharma-scorecard\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Good Pharma Scorecard rankings<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> have improved data-sharing by pharmaceutical companies, as almost half of low scoring companies improved their data-sharing scores within 30 days of receiving their low score. AstraZeneca, for example, newly committed to reporting the number of data requests it receives annually and how each request is handled (i.e. granted or rejected). Novartis committed to sharing trial data by 6 months post approval of a drug or 18 months after the trial is over, when previously it had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmj.com\/content\/366\/bmj.l4217\">no specified timelines for making data available. <\/a>[12] Industry trial registration and results reporting practices are also improving year after year, according to the Good Pharma Scorecard measures. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The median proportion of trials in patients with publicly available results at 12 months after FDA approval rose from 87% for 2012 FDA approved drugs to 100% for 2015 drugs.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is critical to improve drug companies\u2019 data sharing practices, as industry sponsors 90% of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.appliedclinicaltrialsonline.com\/print\/213683?page=full\">clinical research for investigational drugs and devices. <\/a>[13] The GPS data sharing measures require that companies register all applicable trials and have a policy that provides access to datasets which are ready to be analysed, and Clinical Study Reports (CSR). The constitutive elements of a CSR include the statistical analysis plan, study protocol, dataset codebook, and CSR synopsis. The GPS requires companies to clearly state how data may be requested and shared no later than 6 months post FDA or EMA approval of a drug or 18 months after the trial\u2019s completion date. GPS measures require annual reporting on data requests received by companies and whether requests are granted or rejected.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Good Pharma Scorecard can serve as an agent for change. Patients\/carers, clinicians, researchers, policy makers and investors, can require low-scoring companies to commit to reform before working with them.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Advocacy groups might demand that companies fix any transparency issues highlighted in the GPS, as a condition for collaborating on participant trial recruitment. Formularies and prescription guideline writers could report the number of trials a company conducts to gain regulatory approval of a drug, and the proportion of those trials that are published in the medical literature.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Empowering stakeholders to be effective at instigating change is one reason the GPS report the scores at both drug and company levels. The GPS provides a unique platform to discuss and address critical ethical challenges raised through healthcare innovation. Given several years of demonstrated impact, it is well poised to tackle other important issues, like drug pricing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By sharing patient level trial data with the whole research community, we can catalyze the benefits of the resources,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ahajournals.org\/doi\/abs\/10.1161\/CIRCOUTCOMES.112.965798\"> time and effort devoted to clinical trial research and advance patient and population health. <\/a>[14] <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Good Pharma Scorecard aims to provide companies with a consistent, fair, and achievable set of measures, while tracking further progress toward routine data sharing in clinical research.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><b>Jennifer E.
