ObTiMA Overview
ObTiMA is an ontology-based clinical trial management system intended to support clinicians in both designing and conducting clinical trials.
The design phase is facilitated by the Trial Builder in which all aspects of a clinical trial can be specified: A trial chairman can define the outline and metadata of a trial in a master protocol to describe, e.g., trial goals or administrative data. He can further setup treatment plans for guiding clinicians through individual patient treatment where events, e.g., surgery or chemotherapy, can be defined with all necessary information. In addition, the particular treatment order can be freely setup on a timeline and so can treatment stratifications and randomizations to be applied for a patient.

Research Projects
ObTiMA is a research based platform actively developed and widely used in real clinical settings to achieve the goals of the following main research projects:
p-medicine
'p-medicine - From data sharing and integration via VPH models to personalized medicine' project is aiming at developing new tools, IT infrastructure and VPH models to accelerate personalised medicine for the benefit of the patient.
MyHealthAvatar
MyHealthAvatar is built on the latest ICT technology with an aim of engaging public interest to achieve its targeted outcomes.
iManageCancer
iManageCancer, or 'Empowering patients and strengthening self-management in cancer diseases', will team serious games up with the latest in self-management technology to empower people living with cancer.
