Disrupting a $100 B market: A Case Study on Decentralized Search for Clinical Trial Participants through a Networked Referral System in Poland
Clinical trials play a crucial role in advancing medical research and innovation, yet the process of recruiting participants presents significant challenges. Traditional recruitment strategies rely heavily on centralized databases or recruitment agencies, which often fail to reach individuals who could benefit from participation in clinical trials, thereby impeding research progress and treatment development. Moreover, the cost of patient recruitment for clinical trials is a significant component of the overall expenses, often comprising up to 40% of the total budget. On average, recruiting a single patient for a trial can range between $5,000 to $25,000 USD.

Data Lake Application to hit Public Launch with a Grant program opened!
In the landscape of medical research, the journey from patient recruitment to data acquisition has always been fraught with inefficiencies and ethical concerns. The complexities inherent in this process have led to delays, exorbitant costs, and a lack of transparency, escalating in a $100 B problem.
Data Lake secures a Strategic Partnership with a top 10 Pharma Company for a Rare Disease Registry – a Case Study
A disease attains the “rare” designation when affecting <1:2,000 in the European Union and <1:200,000 in the US 1. Contrary to common perception, the impact of rare diseases is substantial. Nearly 8,000 rare disorders have been identified, affecting an estimated 260–440 million individuals globally, with a notable concentration among children, constituting a prevalence rate of 3.5%–5.9% 2. These staggering figures dispel the notion of rare diseases as isolated instances and underscore their status as a significant public health concern, affecting a considerable portion of the global population.

Abstract This case study explores the successful implementation of Data Lake’s data donation technology by Donate Your Data Foundation in the context of breast cancer research in Poland, focusing on how it facilitated the collection of crucial information regarding the patient pathway and identified roadblocks in accessing therapy. The initiative involved collaboration between healthcare institutions, technology companies, and advocacy groups, leveraging the power of data to improve the overall quality of breast cancer care.
Project Update #18 – Q4 2023
Dear Community and Investors, We wish you all a Happy New Year and we welcome to the first Quarterly Update of Data Lake! Last year has been say the least eventful for Data Lake: we started it with a vision of building a donation system for medical data, with the DeSci sector being still a small niche and our token just hitting the open market. Then, throughout the year, we refined our concept, redefined our product and set off to build Consentify, an enterprise-grade decentralized patient recruitment system. In the meantime, DeSci claimed its spot among the ongoing narratives in web3 and LAKE evolved as a token together with our vision.
