Real-world data has the potential to play a major role in RCT design to inform decisions on key protocol components such as inclusion criteria, comparators and endpoints. This session will provide with use cases on RCTs enhancement and discuss on acceptability from different stakeholders in these new approaches. In addition, the rise of RWD allows to advance efficiency of RCT such as site selection and patient recruitment. Different examples will be discussed on how RWE can improve RCTs execution.
