Real World Data: Unlocking Valuable Insights Throughout the Lifecycle

/in , , , , , , , /by

Objectives:

Real world data (RWD), when captured and analyzed, produces the Real-World Evidence (RWE) that underpins the economic case for innovative medicines. Furthermore, RWD can inform the understanding of disease, help identify new therapeutic intervention points, and improve the efficiency of research and development (R&D), especially clinical trials. Unlocking the potential of any promising tool like RWD is not free from challenge and its full potential has yet to be realized. This Webinar aims to provide practical insight into the challenges surrounding RWD and RWE generation with interactive conversation on how individual companies are approaching these challenges.

By participating in this Webinar and/or the subsequent workshop at the MAPS EMEA 2018 Annual Meeting, attendees will be better able to:

  • • Understand the full spectrum of challenges around the use & integration of RWD & RWE including data availability, reliability, quality of data sources, the cost of data acquisition and integration, and acceptance by key stakeholders
  • • Realize the full opportunity of RWE throughout the product life-cycle supporting all cases from clinical research, pre-regulatory approval and post-approval.
  • • Understand the limitations of RWE, including patient confidentiality, data quality and accessibility, and how they can be overcome
  • • Use this evidence effectively and within frameworks defined by regulators at a country or regional level

Now More Than Ever, HEOR Plays a Central Role in Forging the Modern Healthcare Agenda

/in , , , , , , /by

Objective:

Join Dr Omar Dabbous, Vice President, Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR) and Real World Evidence (RWE) at AveXis, and Russell Becker, MA, HEOR Consultant, demonstrate HEOR’s front-and-center role in forging the modern healthcare agenda.

As healthcare systems worldwide become increasingly budget-constrained and cost conscious, stakeholders are placing greater emphasis on health economics demonstration and product potential in real-world practice. Once viewed solely as a support function, HEOR now often takes center stage in the internal decision-making process. As life sciences companies bring HEOR professionals and brand strategists together to formulate streamlined value chains, the function now provides essential data for licensing and R&D, as well as pricing and market access strategies, helps dictate research, planning and sales strategies.

This MAPS eCademy Webinar will:

  • • Examine the current state & future of HEOR data in healthcare decision-making
  • • Discuss strategies to build strong relationships with payers, the medical community, and patient advocacy groups
  • • Determine the impact and value of evidence-based pricing and payment

Best Practices for Managing the Life Cycle of an Investigator-Initiated Research (IIR)

/in , , , , , , /by

 

Objectives:

Investigator Initiated Research is defined as ‘unsolicited‘, independent research where the Investigator or the Institution (academic, private or governmental) serves as the ‘Sponsor’ and a pharmaceutical or medical device company provides support in the form of drug/device and/or funding. A well-designed investigator initiated study can gain insights related to disease state and/or the clinical or scientific profile of a companies products. This may ultimately lead to improved evidence-based medicine and outcomes for patients.

We will discuss the process of investigator initiated research program followed across industry. The process is initiated externally by submission of IIR application via company website followed by internal company review and decision making process. This results in the execution of IIR study contract between the company and the Institution after which the study is initiated by the Investigator.

  • • Describe how to create an IIR Strategy
  • • Define how to optimize submission and review process
  • • Evaluate external engagement

Patient Centric Real World Data & Evidence Generation

/in , , , , , , , , /by

Objectives:

Making the best possible choices about health care requires the best possible evidence upon which to base these important decisions. High quality evidence comes from many sources including real world data (RWD). The sources of RWD are numerous including electronic health records, claims and billing data, product and disease registries and patient-reported data.

Analysis of RWD leads to clinical evidence known as real world evidence (RWE) regarding the usage and risks and benefits of a therapy. Under the right conditions, RWD and the RWE that follows may be used to support regulatory decisions and contribute to the knowledge of a drug or therapy. RWE may help to support improved decision-making about health and health care.

After completing this Webinar, participants will be able to:
•List the sources of real world data (RWD),
•Understand how real world evidence (RWE) can help to support a regulatory decision,
•Recognize when in the product life cycle RWD/RWE may be useful,
•Utilize a patient-centric framework to develop a RWD/RWE generation plan.
