Study Details

Brief summary:

The Health Ahead Comparative Effectiveness Study is a pragmatic, parallel-arm interventional platform that systematically compares successive changes to preventive health screening on the path toward a fully automated screening system deployable in any environment, including the most isolated and resource-limited communities. Each change is isolated as a single variable against current practice, and every comparison is evaluated with a common set of engagement, behavior-change, experience, cost, and longitudinal outcome measures, so results accumulate on a consistent yardstick across the life of the platform.

The first comparison evaluates AI-assisted versus human-only interpretation ("reads") of screening data. Subsequent pre-planned comparisons, added by protocol amendment, evaluate static versus interactive personalized report delivery; mobile community versus fixed laboratory screening; and a hybrid medical-droid-plus-human delivery model versus human-only screening.

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

active comparator: Human-Only Screening Interpretation

Participants receive comprehensive preventive health screening under the standard of care for the comparison in progress. In the active comparison, all screening data, images, tracings, and laboratory results are interpreted by the physician of record and qualified clinical staff under physician supervision, without AI decision support.

experimental: AI-Assisted Screening Interpretation (AI Reads)

Participants receive identical screening with one element modified: the single variable under test in the comparison in progress. In the active comparison, models produce AI-generated reads of the acquired data, presented to the physician of record as a clinical aid. The physician reviews each read, records a structured judgment before sign-off, and produces and signs the released interpretation. The comparison runs in two screening-complexity strata, with a single general model in the simple stratum and a general model plus at least three domain-specific models in the comprehensive stratum.

Interventions

AI-Assisted Screening Interpretation (AI Reads)

An AI-generated read of the acquired screening battery is produced and presented to the physician of record as a clinical aid. All models used are third-party models, executed unmodified on Longevity Metrics clinical infrastructure. The physician reviews each read, records a structured judgment before sign-off, and then produces and signs the released interpretation, which may adopt, modify, or reject any read.

Human-Only Screening Interpretation

All acquired screening data, images, tracings, and laboratory results are interpreted by the physician of record and qualified clinical staff under physician supervision, by standard practice and without AI decision support. This is the current standard of care and the active comparator.

Primary outcome measure

  • Health Awareness and Action (Non-Inferiority) [ Time Frame: Baseline (intake, completed at home before the screening visit); 1-2 weeks after screening, at report delivery; 6-12-month follow-up; then periodically from enrollment until death, up to 100 years. ]
