    Abstract Digital therapeutics (DTx), evidence-based software interventions for preventing, managing, or treating medical disorders, have rapidly evolved with healthcare's shift toward online, patient-centric solutions. This study scrutinizes DTx clinical trials from 2005 to 2022, analyzing their growth, funding, underlying medical specialties, and other R&D characteristics, using ClinicalTrials.gov data. Our analysis includes trials categorized via the ICD-11 system, covering active, recruiting, or completed studies and considering trials listing multiple conditions. In analyzing 5,889 registered DTx trials, we document a more than five-fold increase in such trials since 2011, and a compound annual growth rate of 22.82% since 2005. While most trials were single-center, the median number of study subjects increased in recent years, driven by larger interventional trials. The key disciplines driving this growth were psychiatry, neurology, oncology, and endocrinology. Mental health dominated DTx trials in recent years, led by neurocognitive disorders, substance abuse disorders, and mood disorders. Industry funding varied across disciplines and was particularly high in visual system diseases and dermatology. DTx trials have surged since 2005, accelerated by recent growth in mental health trials. These trends mirror developments toward remote healthcare delivery, amplified by digital health investments during the COVID-19 pandemic. Growing numbers of participants in DTx trials point to increased demand for more robust trials. However, because most trials are single-center and country-specific, more international cooperation and harmonized evaluation standards will be essential for DTx trials to become more efficient and provide validation across countries, health systems, and groups of individuals.

    Abstract Background: Immune-mediated peripheral nervous system (PNS) disorders pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, necessitating collaborative, patient-centered care. Limited access to specialized centers leads to delayed diagnosis and care, as seen during the COVID-19 pandemic. To address these challenges, accessible specialized care is crucial. On-site support plays a vital role in advising and assisting patients and caregivers, enabling multidisciplinary care for PNS diseases.
    Recent findings: The PNS Nurse Education Program tackles these complexities, using specialized nurses experienced in multiple sclerosis and Parkinson disease. Focusing on peripheral neuroimmunologic disorders, PNS nurses monitor disease severity, optimize communication, and provide therapeutic support in the recently started era of available immunotherapies. Collaboration with other healthcare sectors and support groups further enhances patient care.
    Implications for practice: Ultimately, the PNS Nurse Education Program aims to bridge the gap between complex treatments and limited specialized care, improving patient outcomes and relieving burdens on patients, caregivers, and healthcare systems.

    Abstract The 2019 German Digital Healthcare Act introduced the Digital Health Application program, known in German as 'Digitale Gesundheitsanwendungen' (DiGA). The program has established a pioneering model for integrating Digital Therapeutics (DTx) into a healthcare system with scalable and effective reimbursement strategies. To date, the continuous upward trend enabled by this framework has resulted in more than 374,000 DiGA prescriptions, increasingly cementing its role in the German healthcare system. This perspective provides a synthesis of the DiGA program's evolution since its inception three years ago, highlighting trends regarding prescriptions and pricing as well as criticisms and identified shortcomings. It further discusses forthcoming legislative amendments, including the anticipated integration of higher-risk medical devices, which have the potential to significantly transform the program. Despite encountering challenges related to effectiveness, evidence requirements, and integration within the healthcare system, the DiGA program continues to evolve and serves as a seminal example for the integration of DTx, offering valuable insights for healthcare systems globally.

    Abstract Digital Health Technologies (DHTs) such as connected sensors offer particular promise for improving data collection and patient empowerment in neurology research and care. This study analyzed the recent evolution of the use of DHTs in trials registered on ClinicalTrials.gov for four chronic neurological disorders: epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's disease. We document growth in the collection of both more established digital measures (e.g., motor function) and more novel digital measures (e.g., speech) over recent years, highlighting contexts of use and key trends.

    Abstract Objective: Due to the growing complexity in monitoring and treatment of many disorders, disease-specific care and research networks offer patients certified healthcare. However, the networks' ability to provide health services close to patients' homes usually remains vague. Digital Health Technologies (DHTs) help to provide better care, especially if implemented in a targeted manner in regions undersupplied by specialised networks. Therefore, we used a car travel time-based isochrone approach to identify care gaps using the example of the neuroinflammation-focused German healthcare and research networks for multiple sclerosis (MS), myasthenia gravis (MG), myositis and immune-mediated neuropathy.
    Methods: Excellence centres were mapped, and isochrones for 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes were calculated. The resulting geometric figures were aggregated and used to mask the global human settlement population grid 2019 to estimate German inhabitants that can reach centres within the given periods.
    Results: While 96.48% of Germans can drive to an MS-focused centre within one hour, coverage is lower for the rare disease networks for MG (48.3%), myositis (43.1%) and immune-mediated neuropathy (56.7%). Within 120 minutes, more than 80% of Germans can reach a centre of any network. Besides the generally worse covered rural regions such as North-Eastern Germany, the rare disease networks also show network-specific regional underrepresentation.
    Conclusion: An isochrone-based approach helps identify regions where specialised care is hard to reach, which might be especially troublesome in the case of an often disabled patient collective. Patient care could be improved by focusing deployments of disease-specific DHTs on these areas.

    Abstract Introduction: Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is one of the most common immune neuropathies leading to severe impairments in daily life. Current treatment options include intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG), which are administered at intervals of 4-12 weeks. Determination of individual treatment intervals is challenging since existing clinical scores lack sensitivity to objectify small, partially fluctuating deficits in patients. End-of-dose phenomena described by patients, manifested by increased fatigue and worsening of (motor) symptoms, are currently difficult to detect. From a medical and socio-economic point of view, it is necessary to identify and validate new, more sensitive outcome measures for accurate mapping of disease progression and, thus, for interval finding. Digital health technologies such as wearables may be particularly useful for this purpose, as they record real-life data and consequently, in contrast to classic clinical 'snapshots', can continuously depict the disease course.
    Methods: In this prospective, observational, non-interventional, single-center, investigator-initiated study, CIDP patients treated with IVIG will be continuously monitored over a period of 6 months. Clinical scores and blood analyses will be assessed and collected during three visits (V1, V2, V3). Additionally, activity, sleep, and cardiac parameters will be recorded over the entire period using a wearable device. Further, patients' subjective disease development and quality of life will be recorded at various visits (read-outs). The usability of the smartwatch will be assessed at the end of the study.
    Perspective: The study aims to evaluate different digital measurements obtained with the smartwatch and blood-based analyses for monitoring disease activity and progress in CIDP patients. In conjunction, both means of monitoring might offer detailed insights into behavioral and biological patterns associated with treatment-related fluctuations such as end-of-dose phenomena.
    Trial registration: The study protocol was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov. Identifier: NCT05723848. Initially, the protocol was submitted prospectively on January 10, 2023. The trial was publicly released after formal improvements on February 13, 2023, after first patients were included according to the original protocol.
