In today's evidence-based healthcare landscape, life sciences companies are surrounded by Real-World Data (RWD). However, having access to massive datasets does not translate to having the right data.
In this session, industry experts Dr. Radek Wasiak and Isabella Even-Chen break down the critical "Fit-for-Purpose Gap"—the misstep of assuming a single, generalized dataset can satisfy every study design, regulatory requirement, or health economics endpoint.
Key Takeaways:
- Defining "Fit for Purpose": Move beyond volume metrics to evaluate whether a dataset matches your specific clinical, regulatory, and epidemiological requirements.
- The High Cost of One-Size-Fits-All: Avoid costly delays, invalid assumptions, and regulatory pushback caused by forcing a rigid dataset onto a unique research question.
- AI’s Role (and Limitations) in RWD: Explore how artificial intelligence accelerates extraction and harmonization while preserving the strict epidemiological rigor required for evidence generation.
- Practical Frameworks: Gain actionable strategies to bridge the gap between raw, messy healthcare data and publication-ready evidence.
