Global and deep RWE: The most realistic clinical data possible
09:10 NYC/15:10 Paris

Looking at the full universe of patients, leveraging surrogate endpoints, clustering poor responders,

Considering the durability of the effect, conducting indirect treatment comparisons, understanding unmet needs - In summary, improving data packages while reducing uncertainty.

All that is a step closer if you apply AI to RWE generation, pulling the information directly from healthcare providers, without intermediaries.

We are talking about a database, a registry, a CRF... with an "undo button"; at a fraction of the effort.
