REAL WORLD DATA GENERATION FOR MARKET ACCESS PURPOSES Marcin Balcerzak Research Team Lead Farenta Oy
AGENDA Real world evidence in market access landscape: demands & requirements Case studies: Product entry / effectiveness research Mapping market opportunities Challenge and defense of value Farenta Research system setting
CLINICAL TRIALS VS. REAL WORLD Clinical trials By nature and regulation conducted in controlled environment Patients recruited according to certain procedures Reality Millions of patients and HCPs reality is not so structured Not every diagnosis is correct Patients has often more than one disease Drugs administrated to strict protocols Not all drugs prescribed to patients are taken according prescription Every investigator knows it. Considering how much money is spend for healthcare acknowledging role of real-world evidence can not be refused
1. ISPOR Real World Task Force Report (2006) Using Real World Data For Coverage And Payment Decisions. 2. The vision of real world data Harnessing the opportunities in the UK (2011) DEFINITIONS AND SOURCES data used for decision making that are not collected in conventional randomized controlled trials 1...collected outside the controlled constraints of conventional randomized trials to evaluate what is happening in normal clinical practice 2 RWD is scattered across a system: Observational clinical trails, Pragmatic clinical trials, Health records, Claims databases Patient registers, Patient-reported outcomes, Social media
McKinsey PMP practice perspectives on RWD WHERE AND WHEN APPLY RWE? REAL-WORLD DATA HAS BECOME A MAJOR CONTRIBUTOR THROUGHOUT LIFECYCLE Real World Evidence (RWE) creates opportunities along the whole value chain, A comprehensive RWE strategy needs to enhance a cross-functional approach, it has implications for Development and Commercial functions
TRANSFERING RWD BETWEEN COUNTRIES? Clinical outcomes Patient reported outcomes (in some cases) Safety data Natural history of disease Prescribing patterns X Utility data for economic modeling? Epidemiology? (depends on country & disease) Treatment pathways X Resource use X Service delivery X Patient experience of service X
IS EVIDENCE ENOUGH FOR DECISION MAKING? Relevance: population comparators endpoints timeframe policy Credibility: design data analysis reporting interpretation conflict of interest
RWD BENEFITS Estimates of effectiveness Comparison of multiple alternative interventions Estimates of the risk benefit profile Examination of clinical outcomes in a diverse study population Results on a broader range of outcomes Data on resource use Information on how a product is dosed and applied in clinical practice Data in circumstances where there is an urgency to provide reimbursement Interim evidence
CASE STUDIES
PRODUCT ENTRY Meeting material of the ehealth Stakeholder Group (E02769). Source: Sebastian Gaiser, Johnson&Johnson Not yet cases that RWE granted medicine market authorization However, RWE can help development on: Understanding standard of care Reveal unmet needs Recruit patients Budget impact Manage entry But, not all products are medicines
EFFECTIVENESS RESEARCH Case study: pharmaceutical pictograms commercialization Practical effectiveness of pharmaceutical pictograms use: effect on treatment adherence (6 domains: messages conveyed and recalled by pictograms) Setting: pharmacy practice-based research network, Farenta Research Prospective randomized study comparing changes in adherence between standard dispensing practice and standard practice supported with pictograms with permission of

CHALLENGE AND DEFENSE OF VALUE Analyses affecting your products may already be under way Challenges to come from any direction Real world evidence may help to defend product value Germany 2007 2010: IQWiG excluded insulin analogues from reimbursement launched real-world studies demonstrated better total cost of care performance of analogues individual payers restored access
CHALLENGE AND DEFENSE OF VALUE 1st JAN 2017: change in reimbursement of diabetes medicines other than insulins (they were moved from upper (100%) to lower special reimbursement class (65%) Finnish diabetes type 2 longitudinal study: 6 months follow up results (NOV-DEC 2016 MAY-JUNE 2017): discontinuations and initiations of main classes of non-insulin anti-diabetic medicines discontinuations initiations SGLT-2 incretine mimetics glinides DPP-4 inh. glitazone combinations sulfonylureas metformin
UNIQUE CONCEPT WITH MANY POSSABILITIES What kind of information can be obtained with Farenta Research?
