MindMed, a leading biotech firm developing psychedelic-inspired therapies, and Datavant, Inc., a leader in assisting healthcare organizations in safely connecting their data, announced a collaboration in which MindMed will use Datavant's privacy-protecting technology to link MindMed's clinical trial data to external data from both clinical and real-world sources. In addition, MindMed intends to use Datavant's connecting technology across the drug lifecycle, including discovery, clinical development, and commercialization.
MindMed will create broad and comprehensive datasets via data linking to understand better the real-world treatment, service usage, and healthcare experiences of patients with psychiatric and drug use disorders. This data, as well as a better understanding of both the relevant illness and the pathways of treatment that patients take, will assist MindMed's clinical trial planning, execution, and preparation for commercialization of its novel molecules.
