In March 2025, Actin delivered data integrity and reporting improvements for trials and IHC data. Implemented a SourceId field for trial configurations to strengthen data structure, refined trial ID handling for filenames, and updated LKO URL generation to use sourceId for more accurate linking and reporting. Fixed IHC test result parsing to treat the entire string as a single record, replacing the previous comma-based split and updating extraction logic and tests. These changes improve data reliability, enable more precise reporting, and simplify downstream analytics for clinical data workflows.

February 2025 monthly summary for hartwigmedical/actin: Delivered a critical bug fix to improve cohort reporting accuracy by ensuring location context is included in calculations for open cohorts with missing molecular results. Root cause: location parameter was not passed to EligibleActinTrialsGenerator.forOpenCohortsWithMissingMolecularResultsForEvaluation, leading to cohorts being calculated without location context. Implemented fix to pass includeLocation through the calculation path. Linked to ACTIN-1539 (#1004) with commit 87e6714bfe283ca80b97125a6a2e58b806905ec7. Impact: reports now reflect correct location context, increasing relevance for clinical and operational decision-making, reducing misclassification in cohort reporting. Technologies/skills: parameter passing, API contract integrity, regression risk mitigation, and code review.
