What kind of data quality can we expect from Fawkes?
Fawkes provides high-quality, comprehensive patient data drawn directly from medical records. We gather complete medical histories from all of a patient’s providers – including medications, lab results, diagnoses, and more – so you get a full, longitudinal view of each patient’s health. This multimodal, long-term data (often called the “holy grail” of disease research data) offers rich real-world evidence for your studies. In short, you can expect accurate, up-to-date records that give deeper insights than fragmented charts or patient questionnaires.
Is Fawkes compliant with data privacy regulations (e.g. HIPAA/GDPR)?
Yes – data privacy and compliance are core to our platform. Fawkes is fully HIPAA compliant and adheres to other applicable regulations like GDPR, PIPEDA, and more. We implement enterprise-grade security measures (SOC2 certified infrastructure) and encrypt all patient data to ensure it’s protected and confidential. Both patients and partners can trust that all data is handled lawfully and with the highest privacy standards.
How does Fawkes recruit patients for clinical trials?
Fawkes streamlines patient recruitment by proactively matching trials with suitable patients. You provide your trial’s inclusion/exclusion criteria, and our system automatically scans our patient network to find those who meet the requirements. We pre-screen and identify eligible patients in real time, which can cut down recruitment time by over 50% compared to traditional methods. Once we find a match, we assist in connecting you with the patient (after they consent), making the recruitment process faster and more efficient.
What ethical standards does Fawkes follow in using patient data?
We uphold strict ethical standards centred on patient rights and transparency. Patients maintain ownership of their data and must give explicit consent before it’s used in any research. All shared data is fully de-identified (anonymized) when provided to researchers, so no personal identifiers are revealed. Importantly, Fawkes ensures patients also benefit from research breakthroughs – for example, patients are compensated or otherwise share the value created from their data. Our approach creates an ethical partnership where research can flourish while respecting and rewarding patient contributors.
What are the pricing and contracting options for sponsors?
We offer flexible engagement models tailored to your needs. Pricing for Fawkes’s services typically depends on factors like the number of patients involved, the scope of data access, and the length or size of your project. We work with sponsors on a subscription or project-based contract – for example, you might choose a per-study plan or an ongoing data access subscription, depending on what fits best. For detailed pricing and contract terms, it’s best to reach out to our team – we’ll be happy to discuss a solution that suits your organization’s requirements .
Can Fawkes integrate with our existing clinical workflows or systems?
Yes. Fawkes is designed to complement your current workflows rather than disrupt them. We can securely share data and insights in formats that plug into your existing systems. In practice, our platform is capable of transferring patient records or summaries directly into electronic medical record (EMR) systems or trial databases you use. We also offer support for integration via APIs or data exports, so whether it’s your clinical trial management software or an analytics tool, Fawkes can fit in smoothly. Our team will work with you to ensure any integration is seamless and meets your technical and compliance needs.
