Why Caregiver Experience Belongs in Evidence Generation

Caregivers play a pivotal role in managing treatment, navigating care decisions and sustaining patient quality of life — yet their experiences are often left out of evidence generation. As regulatory bodies and payers increasingly emphasize the real-world impact, the absence of caregiver data creates a critical gap in understanding the burden of illness and treatment outcomes.

This webinar will explore the value of incorporating caregiver perspectives into evidence strategies, especially in chronic, rare and progressive conditions. The featured speakers will discuss the dimensions of caregiver burden that influence access, adherence and long-term outcomes, and how life sciences teams can thoughtfully capture and apply this data in support of product value, differentiation and patient-centricity.

Attendees will gain clarity on:

• Why caregiver burden matters across the product lifecycle
• Key frameworks for measuring caregiver impact
• Opportunities to elevate caregiver voices through research design, registries and real-world evidence initiatives

Register for this webinar to explore why caregiver experience must be recognized as essential to real-world evidence strategies.
