Research Scientist in Oncology Real-World Evidence, Ontada
In this Q&A, Saamir Pasha and Carole Berini, PhD, of Ontada discuss what it takes to harmonize fragmented oncology data into reliable real-world evidence, how lab markers can proxy for missing functional status data, and where the biggest remaining barriers to consistent RWE generation lie.
In this video interview, Saamir Pasha and Carole Berini, PhD, of Ontada, identify three persistent obstacles to consistent real-world evidence generation in oncology—inconsistent data capture, structural data limitations that modeling alone can't fix, and the need for earned generalizability through deliberate multi-site validation.
In this video interview, Saamir Pasha and Carole Berini, PhD, of Ontada, describe what operationalizing regulatory-grade quality frameworks requires—and why fit-for-purpose evidence generation is a transparency and documentation discipline, not just a data cleanliness exercise.
In this video interview, Carole Berini, PhD, of Ontada, explains how validated proxies for variables like ECOG performance status can recover not just sample size but the representativeness of hard-to-reach patient populations in real-world oncology studies.
In this video interview, Saamir Pasha and Carole Berini, PhD, of Ontada, explain how building trust into the data foundation—through source lineage, standardization, and reconciliation—is what makes reliable real-world evidence generation in oncology possible.
