Advancing the Science of Study Endpoints

Session Chair(s)

This session will describe, from the perspective of patient representatives and endpoint experts, the definition of study endpoints and a common understanding of patient centricity when applied to study endpoints. This common understanding of different perspectives will then be used to discuss and agree on how the development of study endpoints can truly take a patient-centric approach – and what this means for decision-makers. The session will close with a discussion on likely future requirements for study endpoints from each of the payers included.

Learning Objective : Upon completion of this session, participant should be able to:

• Define endpoint evaluation from the perspective of those who develop these outcomes
• Describe patient centricity from the perspective of a patient advocate/representative and summarize potential implications for study endpoint design
• Justify the need to take a patient-centric approach in the development of study endpoints and identify the implications for decision-makers using study endpoints
