This session will discuss regulatory guidance and frameworks on data quality and feasibility assessments of RWD sources to support RWE study proposals for health authority and HTA engagements. It will include information about how to leverage diverse sources of targeted RWD to support and improve the evolution of new therapies and indications for product safety, outcomes, reduction in label use, and help HC professionals and industry to create a knowledge base for use of RWD.

Learning Objective : Examine the challenges and value of real-world data (RWD) in regulatory decision-making; review guidance on data quality and feasibility of RWD for real-world evidence (RWE) studies in health authority interactions; explore strategies to integrate RWD into dossier data for regulatory alignment; identify challenges in standardizing data collection and sharing across industry, regulators, and academia for global acceptance.
