real-world data, why is it important?

Leverage real-world data to drive brand success

real-world data

Real-world data (RWD) is a critical asset in pharmaceutical innovation and research, enabling a deeper understanding of patients’ needs and driving the development of more effective therapies and personalised healthcare solutions. Leveraging direct access to patients and backed by over 70 million patient interactions across Europe over the past 30 years, Sciensus is uniquely positioned to uncover critical insights into patient experience and behaviour.

Our world-class expertise combined with a deep understanding of evidence requirements and industry leading digital solutions, can help you collect, generate, and communicate invaluable real-world evidence (RWE). This evidence underpins a wide range of activities, including securing market access, supporting regulatory submissions, optimising brand launches, conducting post-marketing safety studies and informing patient-level healthcare decision-making.

What is real-world data in healthcare?

Real-world data reveals how treatments perform in everyday clinical practice, drawing on data collected from actual patient care rather than controlled clinical trials. While traditional clinical trials take place in controlled research environments, RWD comes from diverse sources including electronic health records, insurance claims, disease registries, wearable devices and patients’ own reported experiences.

RWD is essential for demonstrating treatment value– ultimately leading to better patient outcomes and commercial success.

What’s the difference between real-world data and real-world evidence?

While real-world data refers to the raw unprocessed data collected from real-world sources, real-world evidence is generated from this data to answer or shed light on a specific research question.

Real-world evidence (RWE) transforms the RWD collected during routine patient care into powerful insights about a treatment’s effectiveness and safety across diverse patient populations, helping healthcare stakeholders make more informed decisions about long-term treatment approaches.

Benefits of real-world data collection for pharmaceutical companies

RWD helps show how drugs perform in real-world conditions, where patient adherence, comorbidities, and varying demographics play a role. Post-marketing surveillance helps detect rare or long-term adverse effects.

Supporting regulatory decisions

By harnessing RWD, pharmaceutical companies can demonstrate the real-world effectiveness and cost-efficiency of their products, supporting new indications, formulations, or faster regulatory approvals.

Improving market access and reimbursement

RWD provides evidence for cost-effectiveness and value-based pricing which is critical for negotiations with payers. This can be especially helpful for high-cost drugs.
