Controlled clinical trials are considered as gold standard in drug development and this session will explore the potential role of observational evidence in a regulated environment. Taking the totality of evidence into account in a systematic way for decision making at all stages of drug development, the session discusses innovative approaches to combine information from randomised trials and observational studies. Observational data may be considered the best available / achievable information in a number of situations; recent examples and experiences for the use of observational data will be presented.
