Verantos announced that it has received a grant award from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to implement a multi-year advanced real-world evidence (RWE) study.
The program, "Transforming Real-World Evidence with Unstructured and Structured Data to Advance Tailored Therapy" (TRUST), was sponsored by the FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research.
As RWE is increasingly used to make clinical assertions and refine the standard of care, rigorous approaches are required to meet evidentiary standards. This three-year study will apply advanced RWE to a clinical scenario, and data quality will be studied by comparing traditional approaches to advanced approaches. The study, FD-20-030, includes innovations in deep phenotyping, data linkage, and phenotype accuracy measurement.
