Episode notes
Expanding Role of Real-World Data
- Real-world data enriches clinical trials by providing detailed context before, during, and after trials.
- It helps demonstrate drug value post-trial, supporting regulatory and pricing decisions.
Balancing Big Data and Trial Control
- Clinical trials traditionally focus on controlled environments, but big data introduces volume, variety, and velocity challenging that control.
- Balancing between collecting extensive data and focusing on specific scientific questions is critical to avoid slowing drug development.
Choose Scalable Technology Early
- Prioritize technology solutions that can scale organization's global operations, not just pilots.
- Consider regulatory and organizational barriers early to ensure sustainable technology adoption.
