Metrics in Patient-Centered Drug Development Conference

The relationship of patient-centered initiatives to improvements in the drug development process and its outcomes can be difficult to pinpoint due to the complexity of the process and the many factors that also have an impact. Structured approaches to assessing the impact of these initiatives and broad dissemination of the results are key to validating the value of patient-centered practices in drug development. This session will explore case examples of patient-centered interventions that resulted in improved outcomes for stakeholders in the drug product life cycle. Presenters will share their experiences with implementing and evaluating a patient-centered initiative: What outcome objectives did they set? How did these influence plans for the patient-centered intervention? How was success defined and what measures were constructed? How did the implementation experience and results inform future work?
