Advance Your RWE Skills: From Regulatory Guidance to Study Design and Methods

This is a virtual pre-meeting Short Course in conjunction with the Real-World Evidence Conference

Overview

Pre-Registration required and is an additional fee. Already registered? Log in to DIA's My Account/My Events.

This Short Course will be offered virtually – Join from anywhere!

This short course provides a practical introduction to the foundations of real-world evidence (RWE), spanning the full journey from regulatory expectations to study execution. Participants will begin with an overview of recent regulatory guidance as well as learning and implementation shaping the use of RWE in decision-making. Subsequent lectures will focus on designing fit-for-purpose real-world studies, evaluating the strengths and limitations of real-world data sources, and applying key epidemiologic methods to generate rigorous and credible evidence. The course concludes with an interactive case-based activity that allows participants to apply concepts and discuss real-world challenges and solutions with faculty and peers.

Registered attendees for this virtual Short Course will receive access to the course recording for 2 full months post-course! This allows you to remain flexible with your schedule and not worry if you need to step out momentarily. Have a conflict with the dates of the course, but are interested in the content? Register anyway and you will receive access to the recording!

Learning objectives

At the conclusion of this short course, participants should be able to:
  • Summarize key regulatory guidance, pilots, and initiatives shaping RWE use
  • Design a fit-for-purpose real-world study and assess relevant data sources
  • Apply core epidemiologic methods to address bias and strengthen RWE validity
