Background: eClinical Forum webinar sessions focus on the details of a specific topic.  All participants are encouraged to share information and ask questions. Anyone from an eCF member company can participate, gratis. The facilitator will keep the subject on track and prompt discussion and information sharing.

For This Topic:  

According to the FDA’s website, “Real-world data (RWD) and real-world evidence (RWE) are playing an increasing role in health care decisions.”  And a recent survey by the eClinical Forum showed that most respondents believe that RWD and RWE will become much more important in clinical research over the next few years.  As a result, many questions have arisen regarding the use cases, data sources, quality of these sources, regulatory guidance documents and so on. 

The goal of this “Birds of a Feather” session is to present some basic information on these topics and to present a few case examples to illustrate how RWD and RWE are playing an increasingly important role in research.  The agenda is as follows:

• Definitions of RWD and RWE
• Sources of data
• Use Cases
• “Fit for Purpose”
• Gauging Quality of Data (and Evidence)
• Models Used by Different Vendors and Biopharma companies
• Case Examples
• Q&A
