Research & Analytics
Uncover the story the numbers tell with a robust data set on a variety of clinical and practice topics, beyond just quality.
Sample Use Cases
Clinical Trial Design
Data from the EMDI Registry can help pharma companies accelerate and improve clinical trials by:
- Informing the design of clinical trial protocols
- Leveraging RWD for synthetic control arms or adaptive trial designs
- Identifying appropriate inclusion/exclusion criteria for the targeted patient population
- Supporting site selection by estimating the size of the eligible patient population per geographic region
Label Extension
Using RWD to study the usage of off-label indications can provide many benefits to pharma companies such as:
- Uncovering insights into drug effectiveness and differentiation for various patient profiles
- Supporting regulatory approval of new indications in lieu of requiring additional clinical trials, saving time and decreasing costs
- Improving patient access to treatments that were formerly off-label
Medication Adherence
Pharma companies can leverage the RWD from the EMDI Registry to improve medication compliance by:
- Identifying drivers of medication non-adherence by analyzing demographic, social, and medical data
- Supporting development of advanced analytics to predict patients who are more likely to become non-adherent
- Developing improved patient engagement strategies
Market Access & Pricing
Pharma companies can leverage data from the EMDI Registry and improve market access by:
- Gaining RWD on drug usage outside of clinical trials
- Informing the design of value-based contracts
- Securing formulary status
- Tracking patient outcomes to justify pricing
Pharmacovigilance & Safety
Analyzing the EMDI Registry dataset can enhance pharmacovigilance activities by:
- Discovering previously unrecognized drug-drug, drug-supplement and other relevant interactions
- Identifying subgroups of patients that are at higher risk of adverse events due to comorbid medical conditions or other predisposing risk factors
