Multi-stakeholder initiative commissioned by Belgian payer INAMI calling for a multi-stakeholder Learning Network on RWE

About us

RWE4Decisions is a loose multi-stakeholder group composed of HTA authorities, payers, regulators, clinicians, patient representatives, researchers, industry and academics, who have worked together over the past two years under the thought leadership of Jo De Cock, CEO of the Belgian National Institute of Health and Disability Insurance (INAMI-RIZIV), to identify how Real-World Evidence (RWE) can support HTA/payer decisions.

    What do assessors and Payers think about the use of registry-based RWE? 🤔 RWE4Decisions provided input to the design of a More-EUROPA survey and shared the survey with HTA/Payers in their learning network. 💡The results from 191 respondents indicate a general openness towards the use of registry-based RWE in their future work, noting its strength in characterising relevant patient populations. However, gaps in patient-registry studies that impact their use in regulatory & HTA decision-making, such as data quality and access, remain. 🚦Regulators and HTA/Payers are still more reluctant to use such data in their work – compared with the rest of the community – and the uptake of RWE in HTA lags behind its use in regulatory assessments. Improved education and harmonisation of registry-based data interpretation guidelines were seen as promising steps towards closing this gap. 🔗Read more about the findings and recommendations of the paper here: https://lnkd.in/dCPA2hRi #HTA #RWE #RWD #PatientRegistries

    📢 Just published! Happy to share my most recent research with More-EUROPA, now openly accessible in Drug Safety. https://lnkd.in/e4RVRRuT In this Europe-wide survey, we assessed multi-stakeholder perspectives toward the use of real-world evidence based on patient registries for regulatory & HTA decision-making. 🔍 Key points: ➡️ Stakeholders are open to using registry-based evidence in the future. ➡️ Regulators and HTA/payer representatives reported a similar intention toward using registry data in the future, while other stakeholders showed a significantly higher intention. ➡️ Registries were seen as most informative for investigating disease epidemiology, medicines’ long-term effects and safety, but least informative for investigating a medicine’s budget impact, cost-effectiveness, or comparative effectiveness. ➡️ Related costs and the ability to reach relevant patient populations were seen as strengths of registry-based studies, data quality and accessibility as weaknesses.   I’m very grateful for all the help and support from Peter Mol and Sieta de Vries, and a big thank you goes out to my co-authors Maria Melinder, Tanja Dahlqvist, Diogo Almeida, Bruno Sepodes, Carla Torre, Björn Wettermark for the great collaboration. 🙏 #RegulatoryScience, #RWD, #RWE, #HTA, #PatientRegistry, #DrugSafety, #MoreEUROPA

  • 📖 A very interesting read for anyone working with real-world evidence (RWE) and health data!   The 2030 vision for improved clinical evidence generation must recognise the value of real-world data (RWD) across the full spectrum of clinical research, and support capacity building in RWD collection, validation and use to support HTA bodies and payers in their decision-making.   📊 This is one of the key messages of the ‘Clinical Evidence 2030’ paper recently published by the European medicines regulatory network. The 6-point recommendations offer guidelines for stakeholders to fully leverage existing data and knowledge, develop clear research agendas that can inform evidence generation, enhance transparency and, equally important, place patients at the centre of clinical evidence generation efforts.   RWE4Decisions is pleased to see the recognition of RWE’s role and the emphasis on capacity building for RWD collection and validation for more informed HTA/Payer decisions, and we look forward to continuing the discussion on how these principles can shape future decision-making.   🔗 Read the paper here: https://lnkd.in/d9_9xKrj   #RWE #RWD #HTA

    The European medicines regulatory network’s vision for clinical evidence by 2030 has just been published! This scientific article describes 6 guiding principles for generating excellent clinical evidence: 🔹 Every step of clinical evidence generation will be further guided by the patient voice; 🔹 Existing data and knowledge will further inform generation of clinical evidence; 🔹 Study design will be driven by research questions; 🔹 Clinical trials will be more efficient and impactful; 🔹 Real-world evidence will be enabled and its value fully established; 🔹 Trust will be built through transparency. We welcome all actors to apply these principles for excellent clinical evidence. Since we know that our followers may have questions and interesting views, we want to facilitate a discussion opportunity on this topic. We plan a new LinkedIn Live session in April, where our experts will dive deeper into what these principles mean. Follow our posts for more information.

    📢 The European Health Data Space (EHDS) has now been officially published in the Official Journal of the EU, marking a major milestone for the future of health data in Europe! Now, attention must turn to its effective and inclusive implementation. A coalition of 39 stakeholders - including RWE4Decisions - has come together to highlight key priorities for effective EHDS implementation.  In our joint statement, we emphasise the need for meaningful stakeholder engagement, 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿𝘀, with a view to: 🔹 Setting up the Stakeholder Forum to ensure diverse representation and transparent dialogues 🔹 Investing in capacity building and support cross-border knowledge exchange 🔹 Promoting transparency in the EHDS Board by establishing clear principles and integrating feedback from the Stakeholder Forum into the Board’s work By working together, we can unlock the EHDS’s full potential to support better healthcare, research, and policy decisions. 🚀 📑 Read the full statement here 👉 https://urls.fr/1S7yWZ #EHDS #HealthData #RWE

  • On 20 February, RWE4Decisions had the pleasure of hosting a Roundtable in collaboration with the WHO Regional Office for Europe Novel Medicines Platform (NMP) to discuss their draft guide principles for Managed Entry Agreements (MEAs).   💬 The Roundtable provided a valuable opportunity to exchange multi-stakeholder perspectives on how these principles can support decision-making for various stakeholders including payers and HTA bodies, enhance data collection, and promote transparency in MEA implementation across different healthcare systems.   Key takeaways from the session included the importance of: 🔹 Having a structured yet flexible framework to accommodate diverse national contexts 🔹 Ensuring clear data governance and quality standards to support decision-making 🔹 Facilitating stakeholder involvement at all stages of the MEA process   A big thank you to all participants from the RWE4Decisions Community for their insights and engagement! 👏   As the WHO NMP continues to refine these principles, there will be opportunities to provide further input - so stay tuned for updates on how to get involved 🔜 #RWE #MEA #ManagedEntryAgreements

  • 📝 Exciting news: our latest paper, “Planning Post-Launch Evidence Generation: Lessons from France, England and Spain” has been published in the Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics Journal! The paper examines Post-Launch Evidence Generation (PLEG) systems in France, Spain, and England, drawing insights from a RWE4Decisions Roundtable and a HTAi panel in 2024. While there are differences in the products to which PLEG is applied and the way it is operationalized, there are many common challenges experienced across systems and by all stakeholders concerning early anticipation of PLEG and streamlining data collection. Our findings suggest value in improving scientific advice processes and international collaboration to discuss key data gaps early and ensure efficient and effective evidence collection that improves the speed and quality of reimbursement and pricing decisions. We extend our deepest thanks to the co-authors: Seamus Kent, Carlos Martín Saborido, Catrin Austin, Steve Williamson, and Joshua Ray, Karen Facey, Francois Meyer, Alina Pavel. We also thank and acknowledge the support of Camille Thomassin, Judith Fernandez and Serena Rama. 🔗 We invite you to read the article here: https://lnkd.in/dfaWxFVq or find the key learnings summarised below!  #PLEG #CPTJournal #ASCPTJournalFamily
