The Future of Real-World Evidence: Pharma’s Next Moves

Life Sciences, Clinical Trials, Commercialization & HEOR, Pharmacovigilance,
  • Wednesday, December 07, 2022

Throughout the pharma industry, real-world evidence (RWE) is leveraged across organizations for key decision-making within a therapy’s life cycle — from R&D to new US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) drug submissions to commercial strategy operations.

Companies are choosing to invest heavily to build in-house capabilities to leverage RWE efficiently. But questions remain, especially for organizations that are just beginning to apply RWE. How can RWE be made more accessible to stakeholders across the enterprise? What are the most practical applications of RWE to accelerate research and commercialization? And, how will pharma continue to utilize RWE as an end-to-end capability to improve outcomes and meet business goals?

Two pharma giants, Pfizer and Boehringer Ingelheim, have built RWE centers of excellence (CoE), acting as the heart of real-world data (RWD) and RWE for the broader organization. These CoEs house RWE experts and support the clinical and commercial teams to achieve their goals.

In this webinar, Paul Petraro, Executive Director, Global Head RWE Analytic Center of Excellence, at Boehringer Ingelheim, Tom Dougherty, Director of RWE Partnerships and Innovation at Pfizer, along with moderator Sapna Prasad, Senior Director, Clarify Insights, Clarify Health, will discuss the future of RWE in pharma. Register now and discover:

  • The importance of RWE as an end-to-end capability
  • Meaningful ways to leverage RWE for business growth today and in the future
  • Obstacles and roadblocks to future success and implementation
