#Data sharing Takes Two steps Forward Two small but significant steps forward were taken yesterday in the direction of open access to clinical trial data.
A committee of the Institute of Medicine (IOM) yesterday called for the sharing of supporting data for clinical trials results within six months after publication, with a full analyzable data set shared no later than 18 months
after study completion or 30 days after regulatory approval. Also yesterday, Johnson & johnson (J&j) joined the Yale Open data Access (YODA) Project in agreeing to share data from clinical trials for medical devices and diagnostics.
The YODA Project said in a statement that the agreement stablishes a fully independent intermediary to manage requests
and promote data use, as J&j has done with pharmaceutical clinical trial data since last year.
Under the agreement, the YODA Project will approve or deny requests from investigators for de-identified patient data associated with the pharmaceutical, medical device,
and diagnostic clinical trials conducted by J&j companies. his action will benefit society and represents a major step forward in the effort to promote data sharing,
as Johnson & johnson leadership in this area now extends from sharing its drug data to sharing its device
and diagnostics data, said Dr. Harlan Krumholz, professor of medicine and leader of the YODA Project. e hope this action serves as a catalyst to others to join the momentum on open science.
The two new developments join what the IOM report acknowledged was progress toward data sharing in recent years.
Eleven drug developers have committed to sharing clinical trial data through clinicalstudydatarequest. com and allow an independent review panel to decide data requests:
Astellas, Bayer, Boehringer ingelheim, Glaxosmithkline, Lilly, Novartis, Roche, Sanofi, Takeda, UCB, and Viiv Healthcare. Three industry groupspharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (Phrma), the European Federation of Pharmaceutical industries and Associations (EFPIA),
and the Biotechnology industry Organization (BIO) ignaled support for sharing clinical trial data beyond recent industry norms,
but not the open-access sought by Europe chief drug regulator and Glaxosmithkline. The European Medicines Agency in October issued a more expansive data sharing policy last October,
though not the full open-access sought by advocates. The IOM Committee on Strategies for Responsible Sharing of Clinical Trial Data similarly said its recommendations were intended to balance data sharing benefitsaximizing knowledge
stimulating new research ideas, and avoiding duplicative trialsith its challenges. The panel defined those challenges as protecting privacy and consent for trial patients;
and publish their data, safeguarding commercially confidential information, and assuring research institutes that requirements for sharing clinical data will not be nfunded mandates.
Also included among challenges was uarding against invalid secondary analyses, which could undermine trust in clinical trials

Doj closed its investigation last year without carrying out any action. he sharing of clinical trial data needs to be carried out in a way that maintains incentives for sponsors
and enhance the benefits of data sharing by employing ata useagreements; creating independent review panels with members of the public to decide sharing requests,
and maintaining transparency in data-access policies. The panel defined stakeholders to include funders and sponsors,
which data sharing is expected the norm, and should commit to responsible strategies aimed at maximizing the benefits,
and overcoming the challenges of sharing clinical trial data for all parties, the IOM panel stated.
IOM committee said that data-use agreements should include provisions aimed at protecting clinical trial participants,
giving credit to the investigators who collected the clinical trial data, protecting the intellectual property interests of sponsors,
whether and how data use agreements will be enforced, the committee believes these agreements have significant normative, symbolic,

It uses parity information--the measurement of change from the original data (if any)--as opposed to the duplication of the original information that is part of the process of error detection in classical computing.

which essentially assess the information in the data qubits by measuring around them.""So you pull out just enough information to detect errors,
