AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current chronotherapy practices do not account for an individual's unique and potentially shifting circadian rhythm, leading to suboptimal dosing times that may not align with the patient's biological rhythms, potentially reducing therapeutic efficacy and increasing adverse effects.

Method used

A system and method for personalized chronotherapy that utilizes sensor data, including biomarkers like cortisol and melatonin, to determine an individual's circadian rhythm, and adjusts the administration of therapeutics using an infusion pump or dialysis machine based on a personalized therapeutic schedule aligned with the patient's circadian rhythm.

🎯Benefits of technology

Enhances therapeutic efficacy by aligning drug administration with circadian-dependent biological functions, reducing adverse effects, and improving treatment outcomes and patient quality of life.

Abstract

Certain aspects of the disclosure provide techniques for personalized chronotherapy. An example method includes obtaining sensor data associated with one or more sensors; determining a circadian rhythm based on the sensor data; determining a control schedule, for a device configured to deliver a therapeutic, based on the circadian rhythm and pharmacological data associated with the therapeutic; and controlling the device in accordance with the control schedule.
