Case Study: City of Hope brings data science into the clinical workflow with Posit Connect

City of Hope evaluates over 200 trials in 9 months with Posit PBC

City of Hope, a leading cancer research and treatment organization, faced the challenge of deploying data science tools directly into clinical and business workflows without lengthy handoffs to software engineering teams. They needed a platform that would allow their data scientists to maintain full visibility and control from development through production deployment. To solve this, they partnered with vendor Posit and implemented their product, Posit Connect.

Using Posit Connect as a central hub, City of Hope's team deployed a wide range of tools, including applications that improve clinical documentation accuracy and accelerate clinical trial feasibility assessments. The solution from Posit enabled the team to own the entire production stack, significantly streamlining deployment and governance. This has had a measurable impact, with one tool alone evaluating over 200 clinical trials in nine months and another cumulatively reviewing nearly 1,000 patient accounts daily.
