Anti-Inflammatory Cardiovascular Trial Matching with LangChain and LangGraph

Targeted anti-inflammatory cardiovascular therapies require precise patient selection based on biomarker thresholds like IL-6 and hsCRP. Build a stateful trial-matching agent using LangChain and LangGraph to evaluate EHR data against eligibility criteria. Achieve 95% precision on clinical trial inclusion/exclusion evaluations.

What you are building

Build a stateful EHR trial matching agent using LangChain and LangGraph to identify anti-inflammatory cardiovascular therapy candidates.

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates accuracy and precision of patient eligibility decisions against clinical trial protocols.

Datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

How submissions are scored

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

decision_present

Output contains clear boolean eligible flag.

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

precision

Precision of patient inclusion determinations • target: 0.95 • range: 0-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

  • Build complex multi-step decision state graphs using LangGraph and LangChain

  • Parse and evaluate temporal biomarker trends (hsCRP, IL-6) from EHR data

  • Implement conditional branching for inclusion vs exclusion rule evaluation

  • Export transparent audit logs of trial eligibility determinations

Resources

Dataset notes

Synthetic EHR dataset of 250 adult cardiac patients with longitudinal lab measurements for inflammatory markers.

Challenge setup

Evaluates accuracy and precision of patient eligibility decisions against clinical trial protocols.

Challenge input

LangChain

Framework required for prompt chaining and tool integration.

LangGraph

Enables creation of state machines with dynamic branching for clinical logic.
