Synthetic Generation of Hematological Data Over Federated Computing Frameworks: SCD Use Case
Synthetic Generation of Hematological Data Over Federated Computing Frameworks (SYNTHEMA): SCD Use Case
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 12 Mar 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Haematological diseases (HDs) are a large group of disorders resulting from quantitative or qualitative abnormalities of blood cells, lymphoid organs and coagulation factors. Despite most of them (\~74%) are rare, the overall number of HD affected patients worldwide is important, placing a considerable economic burden on healthcare systems and societies. Despite the existence of several collaborative research groups at national and EU level, current clinical approaches are often ineffective, particularly for rarest conditions, due to the relatively low number of patients per disease and the high number of unconnected clinical entities. SYNTHEMA aims to establish a cross-border data hub where to develop and validate innovative AI-based techniques for clinical data anonymisation and synthetic data generation (SDG), to tackle the scarcity and fragmentation of data and widen the basis for GDPR-compliant research in rare hematological disorders (RHD). The project will focus on one representative RHD use case: sickle-cell disease (SCD).
