Biomedical Signal Extraction From Symptom Descriptions: An Observational Registry Using the OpenGenome Platform (OGNOME-REG)

May 16, 2026 updated by: OpenGenome

Accuracy and Calibration of Evidence-Grounded Biomedical Signal Extraction From Free-Text Symptom Descriptions: A Prospective Observational Registry Using the OpenGenome Automated Research Instrument

This registry prospectively collects anonymized free-text symptom descriptions submitted voluntarily by adults through the OpenGenome platform at opengenome.bio. For each submission, the system retrieves real biomedical literature from PubMed and ClinicalTrials.gov in parallel, applies a constrained reasoning model operating under a strict output schema, and returns a structured biological signal report. The study evaluates the internal consistency of extracted signals, the calibration of confidence scores relative to dataset size and symptom specificity, and the distribution of biological signal categories across a large anonymous population. No intervention is assigned. No participant contact occurs. All data is anonymized at the point of collection.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Recruiting

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

OpenGenome is a publicly accessible, anonymous research instrument that maps free-text symptom descriptions to structured biological signals grounded in primary biomedical literature. Upon submission, the platform dispatches parallel queries to PubMed via NCBI E-utilities and ClinicalTrials.gov v2 API, retrieving up to 16 real sources per submission. A reasoning model constrained by a strict schema extracts a primary biological signal, up to five secondary signals, a plain-language correlation explanation, a confidence score, and a signal strength score. All scores are integers on a 0 to 100 scale. Sources are included by PMID or NCT identifier and are directly linkable for independent verification. This registry will analyze aggregate anonymized outputs to characterize signal consistency, score calibration, and population-level signal distributions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Sampling Method

Probability Sample

Study Population

Adults aged 18 years or older who voluntarily access the OpenGenome platform at opengenome.bio and submit a free-text description of symptoms or health-related observations for automated biomedical signal analysis.

Description

  • Automated or programmatically generated submissions detected by rate limiting
  • Submissions containing no discernible symptom or health-related content

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Voluntary Submitters
Adults aged 18 or older who voluntarily submit a free-text symptom description via the OpenGenome platform and receive a structured biological signal report. No intervention is assigned.
Other: OpenGenome AI Platform
AI-assisted biomedical signal extraction from free-text symptom descriptions, cross-referenced against PubMed and ClinicalTrials.gov evidence sources.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Internal signal-source concordance rate
Time Frame: At point of automated report generation, assessed continuously over 12 months
Proportion of primary signal claims in generated reports that are traceable to at least one retrieved PubMed or ClinicalTrials.gov source included in the same report
At point of automated report generation, assessed continuously over 12 months

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
May 5, 2026

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
May 5, 2028

Study Completion (Estimated)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
