The Digital Patient Health & Innovation function is part of Digital Health R&D and works across 4 key areas by defining our digital health strategies, developing and deploying novel endpoints as well as digital patient solutions to support our full R&D clinical development and commercial drug portfolios in partnership with R&D and IT teams. Our mission is to:

- Transform clinical development, through development of patient and site centric digital solutions that improve access to clinical trials for all patients, whilst delivering faster and more efficiently for both site and sponsor
- Improve outcomes for our patients and trials through remote data collection and patient support providing enriched data sets to support regulatory submissions and differentiated labelling
- Partner with the healthcare industry to determine how digital technologies can improve diagnosis, access to treatments, and outcomes for patients including remote diagnosis tools and multi-modal healthcare data and AI approaches
- Optimize real-world medication use by patients and deliver digital interventions to improve clinical outcomes with our medicines

Evinova develops digital solutions to support our development and commercial drug portfolios. These digital solutions range from the innovative and optimized use of electronic Clinical Outcomes Assessments (eCOA), all the way through to stand-alone Digital Therapeutics and typically encompass connected devices, and sensors, patient-completed questionnaires that can be coupled with medical device software to:

- Generate patient-relevant evidence as support of novel digital endpoints
- Improve clinical development, by optimizing data collection and data use by AZ, HCP, and patients
- Provide enriched data sets to support regulatory submissions and differentiated labeling
- Optimize real-world medication use by patients through digital interventions and improve clinical outcomes

Moreover, it includes digital solutions to support the patient and investigator experience in the clinical trial, based on feedback from patients and sites, some examples of these include:

- E-Consent
- Solutions to help patients navigate the trial requirements
- Telemedicine to have virtual visits/remote visits not all physical
