Abstract

The valuable clinical data, specimens, and assay results collected during a primary clinical trial or observational study can enable researchers to answer additional, pressing questions with relatively small investments in new measurements. However, management of such follow-on, ""ancillary"" studies is complex. It requires coordinating across institutions, sites, repositories, and approval boards, as well as distributing, integrating, and analyzing diverse data types. General-purpose software systems that simplify the management of ancillary studies have not yet been explored in the research literature.

With the publicly available data in the CAVD DataSpace we can Learn about studies, products, assays, antibodies, and publications, Find subjects with common characteristics, Plot assay results across studies and years of research, and Compare monoclonal antibodies and their neutralization curves. Data are also accessible via DataSpaceR, our R API.
