Unlocking Clinical Trial Data with AI
How ALIGN Uses LLMs to Solve Medical Coding Challenges
ALIGN is a novel compositional LLM system that automates medical coding for historical clinical trial data without requiring labeled training data.
- Addresses key interoperability challenges in clinical research by automatically generating standardized medical codes
- Uses a zero-shot approach that outperforms existing methods on complex coding tasks
- Combines specialized LLMs in a compositional workflow to tackle the nuances of medical terminology mapping
Why it matters: Effective reuse of historical clinical trial data can significantly accelerate medical research and drug development, potentially reducing costs and time to market for new treatments.
