We are thrilled to share our ongoing partnership with Mineralys Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: MLYS), a leading biopharmaceutical company committed to developing medicines to target diseases driven by dysregulated aldosterone, such as hypertension.

In the United States alone, there are over 30 million patients with hypertension who are unable to achieve their target blood pressure despite treatment. According to the World Heart Federation, hypertension is the number one risk factor for death globally that affects over 1 billion people. It is often called “the silent killer” that accounts for half of all heart disease and stroke-related deaths worldwide.

At Miracle, we are honored to partner with Mineralys and increase their efficiency to manage their clinical trials by providing an automated control tower. This collaboration marks a significant milestone as Mineralys manages its clinical trials using the Miracle platform.

The Challenge – Information Isolated in Siloed Systems

With multiple global phase 2 and 3 trials underway the Mineralys team required a reliable and comprehensive solution that allowed them to closely manage their clinical and operational trial data. Miracle reduced the number of disparate tools and systems into one single access point resulting in quick decision-making and ease of visibility into areas that need attention.

For the study team, it was not adequate to simply aggregate information. In addition to communicating with senior leadership, they needed actionable insights from across all their trial platforms (i.e. EDC, RTSM, lab systems) so that the team could proactively identify potential bottlenecks and take actions to achieve data management and clinical management oversight efficiently across all their clinical trials.

Enter Miracle – Actionable Insights from Transparency to Accelerate Trials

From the very start, Miracle was prepared to help Mineralys expedite their clinical trials. Within a week the Mineralys team had access to live dashboards on Miracle that emulated their manual Management Update tracker.

“Miracle has saved us 20% of resourcing time by automating our data needs and has given us visibility into information to make faster decisions to benefit our trials,” said Jessica Ibbitson, Senior Vice President of Clinical Operations at Mineralys.

The Mineralys team immediately benefited from Miracle in the following ways:

1. Automated dashboards: The Mineralys team no longer needed to spend hours maintaining and updating key trackers for their clinical trials.

2. Unified view of information: Instead of needing to log into different trial platforms (i.e. EDC, lab systems), the Mineralys team is able to obtain all the necessary information from within Miracle.

3. Communication tool: Miracle became the central hub to retrieve updates for their clinical trials so that the entire company can stay updated on the latest progress.

“Mineralys had an urgent need for a platform to take in real-time clinical trial analytics, study site level output, aggregate recruitment, performance metrics and models.  Within a week Jin and his team at Miracle had us up and running.  Within a month we could identify opportunities to improve site performance and in less than three months we were seeing an impact on our performance goals.  I can unreservedly recommend Miracle to any clinical stage biotech looking to incorporate state-of-the-art analytics into trial planning and execution,” said David Rodman, Chief Medical Officer at Mineralys.

In addition, Mineralys has been using Miracle to extract actionable insights to expedite their clinical trials:

1. Projecting enrollment timeline scenarios: Based on actual site performance, Miracle helps the Mineralys team project scenarios for trial timelines, as well as simulating how adding new sites or removing non-randomizing sites would impact timelines.

2. Conducting data cleaning and review in a continuous manner: In order to optimize the time between database lock and data readout, the Mineralys team is able to use Miracle to track eCRF page status, query status, and soft-lock status in a continuously ongoing manner.

3. Patient profiles and medical monitoring: Miracle enables more efficient medical monitoring with transparency to blinded pseudonymized lab data, adverse events, medical histories, concomitant medications, and use of IP, all in a single portal. This helps the Mineralys clinical team save time by getting all the information from across several different systems in Miracle.

Looking Ahead

Our partnership with Mineralys Therapeutics represents a significant step forward in our mission to speed up clinical trials. We are excited to contribute to the development of new therapies that have the potential to improve the lives of countless patients. As we move forward, we remain dedicated to innovation, excellence, and the pursuit of better health outcomes.

“We are no longer spending time manually pulling information from the EDC and other trial platforms. With automated insights in Miracle, we are much more efficient and have greater transparency into our clinical management processes. Miracle enabled new insights that have saved us a significant amount of time,” said Cindy Berejikian, EVP of Operations, Mineralys.
