Medidata Connector

Anthropic-listed connector wrapping Medidata’s hosted MCP server, giving Claude two clinical-operations capabilities: querying Medidata platform documentation and predicting high-performing clinical-trial sites during protocol planning.

   
Type Claude.ai Connector / Claude Code Plugin (wraps a remote HTTP MCP server)
Supplier Medidata Solutions (Dassault Systèmes)
Availability GA in the anthropics/life-sciences marketplace
Pricing Connector install is free; Predictive Site Ranking requires a Medidata Intelligent Trials subscription, Platform Help requires an iMedidata account
Capabilities Read-only — documentation Q&A and site-ranking predictions

How to install

  • Claude Code — plugin marketplace:
    /plugin marketplace add anthropics/life-sciences
    /plugin install medidata@life-sciences
    
  • Claude Code — direct MCP add: claude mcp add --transport http medidata https://mcp.imedidata.com/mcp
  • Claude.ai / Claude Desktop — add a custom connector pointing at https://mcp.imedidata.com/mcp (Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector). Claude Desktop has no native HTTP transport, so register it via an mcp-remote proxy:
    claude mcp add medidata -- npx -y mcp-remote https://mcp.imedidata.com/mcp
    

Authenticate with your iMedidata credentials when prompted. The HTTP endpoint is a long-lived hosted service — you do not run a local process.

What it does

Two services exposed over a single hosted MCP server:

  • Platform Help — queries Medidata’s Knowledge Hub documentation and FAQs for products such as Rave EDC, Data Connect, and Clinical Data Studio, so Claude can answer how-to questions about the platform and combine that with internal policies.
  • Predictive Site Ranking — for Intelligent Trials customers, ranks clinical-trial sites by predicted enrollment performance during protocol/study planning, using aggregated historical operational, population/country, and standardized site data. Inputs include planned phase, indication, and study criteria; outputs include top-predicted sites, sites in the top performance percentiles, site addresses, and sites in countries of interest.

Primary use cases: Clinical-trial site-selection strategy, protocol planning, Medidata platform documentation Q&A.

Notes

HTTP transport at https://mcp.imedidata.com/mcp. Platform Help is gated behind an iMedidata login (public viewers see limited content); Predictive Site Ranking is restricted to Medidata Intelligent Trials customers. Announced as part of Anthropic’s Claude for Healthcare / Life Sciences expansion alongside new CMS and ClinicalTrials.gov connectors. Verify your institution’s Medidata entitlement before relying on the site-ranking tools.
