RWE in Europe Paper III: A Roadmap for RWE.
.
London School of Economics and Political Science, London, UK.
Abstract
Real world evidence (RWE) has been touted as a remedy for current market access issues, facilitating quicker approvals and increased odds of reimbursement at a good price. It is therefore an attractive avenue for pursuit for manufacturers today. This paper, the third in a series looking at the use of RWE in Europe, outlines the discussions held between key opinion leaders in pricing and reimbursement across a number of European countries at a roundtable-style meeting. The aim of the meeting was to develop a 3-year roadmap, and resulting action plan, of initiatives for the enhanced use of RWE in decision-making in the pharmaceutical industry. Following a series of brainstorming sessions across the areas of commissioning and access, clinical evidence and patients and outcomes, contributors were asked to prioritise the importance of a refined set of initiatives identified in these brainstorming sessions to develop the three-year road map. Finally, four key points from the roadmap were identified for initial action: actively engage in early dialogue with payers on RWE needs; consensus exercise on RWD/E in clinical decisions, develop a definition of patient reported/relevant outcomes and develop a model approach for the collection of patient reported/relevant outcomes data. These action points are seen as the most imperative steps for enhancing the role of RWE. If its use is to become more common addressing these steps, as quickly and efficiently as possible, will be vital for all stakeholders in the pharmaceutical arena.
