Topography Health, a Los Angeles, CA- and NYC-based full-stack clinical trials platform for community physicians, raised $21.5m in Series A funding.
The round was led by Bain Capital Ventures, with participation from existing investor Andreessen Horowitz, (which led the company’s seed funding of $6m) as well as One Medical Founder Tom Lee, former Flatiron Health Chief Medical Officer Bobby Green, and Zillow Co-founder Spencer Rascoff.
Co-founded by Alexander Saint-Amand, Andrew Kirchner, and Mac Parish, Topography is creating a national network of community physicians to expand access to clinical drug trials.
Topography is a full-stack, white-glove clinical trials product and service experience that identifies, trains, and supports community physicians in expanding their clinical research capabilities and scaling clinical trials in their communities. Reducing the administrative and business management burden placed on the physician, the company helps medical practices understand their patient populations, recommends which studies have high odds of uptake and impact, recruits patients, and hires, manages and supports research staff. Topography’s digital workflow technology allows physicians to reduce process friction and manage all clinical data in one place. Its data science platform analyzes patient records to help physicians across diverse communities recommend and personalize research for their patients, many of whom may have historically been excluded from or overlooked by promising drug trials.
Topography is currently in beta with several community physicians, with an initial focus on metabolic disease. It is actively recruiting community physicians nationally to apply for physician investigator roles.
