Case Study: Flatiron Health achieves federated oncology insights with Lifebit

Flatiron Health enables 100% federated oncology data analysis with Lifebit

Flatiron Health faced the challenge of securely analyzing distributed oncology datasets across different countries while ensuring strict compliance with regional data regulations and avoiding the need for data centralization. To address this, they partnered with Lifebit to utilize its Trusted Research Environment (TRE) service.

Lifebit implemented a federated TRE that allows researchers to analyze sensitive patient-level data where it resides, without ever moving or exporting the records. This solution enabled federated data discovery and analysis, improved collaboration, and ensured audit-grade governance. The measurable impact for Flatiron Health includes secure federation across data on over 5 million patient records from more than 30 partners, with data refreshes completed on a 90-day cycle.
