LOS ANGELES, May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MedTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the most innovative companies, technologies and products in the global digital health and medical technology market, today announced that TriNetX, the world’s leading federated health data network, has been selected as winner of the “Clinical Trial Innovation Award” in the 10th annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program.
TriNetX connects real-world evidence research, feasibility intelligence, and site selection execution into a single, intelligent workflow. TriNetX's enhanced Application Programming Interface (API) capabilities help pharmaceutical companies access and utilize real-world data (RWD) for clinical trial planning. The enhanced API allows partners to send study queries using either medical codes or natural language directly from their own systems to TriNetX's global network of 300 million patients across more than 20 countries, to receive real-time patient counts, feasibility data, and site intelligence, all seamlessly integrated within current workflows. Researchers can ask feasibility questions in plain language, with TriNetX’s capabilities paving the way toward Agentic AI-level integration for truly intelligent, autonomous data-driven decision-making. The API is powered by the company’s proprietary clinical ontology, accessing data sourced directly from their global provider network, ensuring insights are continuously refreshed and fully traceable.
Once feasibility is established, TriNetX Site Profiles unify public clinical trial data with real-world patient data at scale within TriNetX LIVE™. The breakthrough platform offers multi-source data harmonization across 11,000+ healthcare provider sites globally.
“We knew we could transform clinical trial planning from fragmented, manual processes into integrated, real-time intelligence by revolutionizing feasibility through conversational AI and intelligent insights that support faster, more confident protocol design and site selection,” said Jeff Margolis, Executive Chairman of TriNetX. “We’re thrilled to win the ‘Clinical Trial Innovation Award’ in MedTech Breakthrough’s 2026 program. We’ll continue to partner with our clients to drive insight and help answer their most pressing challenges, with the ultimate result of improving human health.”
Now celebrating its 10th anniversary, the MedTech Breakthrough Awards program has spent a decade recognizing the companies driving meaningful progress and improving patient care across the global health and medical technology industry. The program spans a wide range of categories – including Telehealth, Clinical Administration, Patient Engagement, Electronic Health Records (EHR), Virtual Care, Medical Devices and beyond – honoring the innovations reshaping how care is delivered worldwide.
This year's program drew a record-breaking number of nominations from leading companies and startups across more than 20 countries, reflecting the growing global impact and momentum of the digital healthcare industry.
“TriNetX’s integrated approach doesn't just improve individual processes; it fundamentally transforms how the industry moves from study concept to site activation,” said Steve Johansson, managing director, MedTech Breakthrough. “From conversational queries to sophisticated analytics, through automated site harmonization, to real-time capacity intelligence that optimizes selection decisions, TriNetX enables sponsors and organizations to plan smarter trials, start faster, and dramatically reduce enrollment failure risk at a global scale.”
