WHy Collect Data In A Registry?
Registries have long been an effective tool for gathering data. The data provided through registries generates important insights into patient characteristics and behaviors, standards of care, treatment landscape(s), and long-term clinical outcomes of a pharmaceutical or medical device product.
Recent advances in collecting and leveraging real world data (RWD) to generate real world evidence (RWE) have exponentially increased the value of registries by allowing companies to understand and differentiate their products and development portfolios & tactics.
RWE is evidence on health care that is generated from data derived from multiple sources outside of the typical clinical research setting. It helps provide information that is relevant and meaningful to stakeholders, that often could not be collected from the traditional randomized clinical trial model.
Sponsors should keep certain factors in mind when trying to maximize the reliability of the data collected in the registry. These factors include:
Data accrual – are the methods of colleting the data sound and suitable?
Data integrity – do registry processes and personnel minimize errors and eliminate the possibility of bias?
Data security and confidentiality – are there privacy controls in place to protect the data?
