Electronic medical data systems and other healthcare data sources have the potential to enhance our understanding of medical interventions. While the randomized clinical trial continues to have an established place in the realm of evidence generation, these new data sources also warrant recognition. In this session, clinical, bioinformatic, statistical, and epidemiological experts will address how these data sources can be used to provide real world evidence to address clinical and regulatory questions. Speakers will address how real-world evidence can most productively be used in the short term and more ambitious uses in the future, as well, the challenges to making this happen.
