Examining the Role of Study Registration in Building Trust in Real-World Evidence
Lawrenceville, NJ, USA—August 19, 2019—ISPOR, the professional
society for health economics and outcomes research (HEOR), announced plans for
its ISPOR
Summit 2019
scheduled for October 11, 2019 in Baltimore, MD, USA. The Summit, “Building
Trust in Real-World Evidence: The Role of Study Registration,” will provide a
forum for discussion of the Real-World Evidence Transparency Initiative, led by
ISPOR, International Society
for Pharmacoepidemiology (ISPE), Duke-Margolis
Center for Health Policy, National
Pharmaceutical Council (NPC), and a number of other organizations and stakeholders.
Real-world evidence (RWE) on treatment outcomes can be
an important aspect of the evidence basis for decision making when it is seen
as credible. Transparency of RWE studies is a critical aspect of building trust
and credibility. Preregistration of RWE study protocols is an approach that can
foster transparency and help build trust that RWE results can be used for
decision-making purposes.
The Summit will feature 6 sessions with speakers from the
US Food and Drug Administration, the US National Institutes of Health, the US
Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, Patients Like Me, Harvard
University, Duke-Margolis Center for Health Policy, the National Pharmaceutical
Council, Optum Labs, and more. The Initiative’s work to date will be presented
and future steps envisioned by the Initiative will be discussed.
