More than 80% of cancer patients and survivors who responded to the survey were willing to use the majority of remote interventions, like oral medications delivered to the home, electronic informed consent and wearables.

This marks THREAD's third recent acquisition, including the inVibe deal announced early this year and the Modus Outcomes purchase from November.

Also: Decentralized clinical trial platform Lightship raises $40 million, and digital pediatric clinic Brave Care scooped up $25 million.

The platform allows for image collection and management from multisite trials and the homes of study participants.

The platform has served as the basis of clinical research studies at multiple institutions, including UCSF and Stanford University.
