However, currently there is a growing emphasis on complementing that approach with <strong>studies based on Real-World Data (RWD)<\/strong>, which have enormous potential and have attracted great interest. This is reflected in a study by <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.deloitte.com\/es\/es.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Deloitte<\/a> that found that <strong>90% of international pharmaceutical companies are carrying out or plan to carry out studies based on RWD<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The RWD studies gather data about treatment, patients (data provided directly by the patient and the physician), and diseases in a <strong>non-experimental context<\/strong>.\u00a0 That is, they capture results that have not been taken into consideration in a protocoled study, and that come from the<strong> real life of the patient during their treatment<\/strong>. Those studies, according to the EMA, can benefit all the stakeholders involved in the development and use of the medications (from patients to regulatory entities), by providing a more holistic view.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>To capture this information, researchers are beginning to incorporate the <strong>perspective of the individual patient by means of quality-of-life surveys and personalized monitoring that allow them to obtain results that are highly relevant and impactful in the long term, complementing traditional clinical trials.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>During this process of data collection, new technologies are playing a key role, facilitating this capture of patient information, primarily through mobile applications that are made available to the patients in order to incorporate the information about their disease in a quick and easy way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>At <a href=\"https:\/\/perseivivarium.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Persei vivarium<\/a> we are paying special attention to the significant potential in the combination of traditional clinical trials and the information provided by the individual patient <strong>(patient-reported outcome measures and patient-reported experience measures: PROMs and PREMs)<\/strong>.
