"Clinical trials for AI and AI for clinical trials"

James Zou James Zou
James Zou
Abstract: Clinical trials are the gatekeeper and bottleneck of medicine. In the first half of the talk, I discuss lessons learned from our systematic analysis of all the FDA-approved medical AI devices, which reveals key limitations in how AIs are evaluated (Wu et al. Nature Medicine 2021). Motivated by this, I share the design and results from our recent randomized prospective clinical trial evaluating EchoNet, a computer vision AI for assessing cardiac conditions. In the second half, I will discuss how to use AI (Trial Pathfinder) to make clinical trials more diverse and efficient (Liu et al. Nature 2021, Nature Medicine 2022). Trial Pathfinder is used by pharma companies to guide new trials and was selected as a Top Ten Clinical Research Achievement.
