Can you afford to launch a new drug without hearing what patients think about it?


Get the full picture of a treatment

To ensure that you get a clearer picture of a treatment, we recommend interviewing the users who are exposed to a drug candidate as early as possible in the trial program. This type of feedback will raise the quality of your insights into the safety and efficacy of an investigational drug and can be used as additional arguments for regulators’ approval of the drug as well as input to the discussion and design of future trials.

Regulatory authorities already consider patient-experience data in their product evaluations

Regulatory authorities – led by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicine Agency (EMA) – has issued a call for Patient-Focused Drug Development (PFDD) and has already initiated efforts to include patient-experience data in their decisions to approve new medicines. For example, FDA has developed PFDD guidances to strengthen the patient feedback in clinical trials and is expected in 2021 to start asking for patient-experience data to be included in new drug applications.

As a result of the increasing attention that is put on capturing patient feedback, it is expected that more regulatory authorities and HTAs will start to request more detailed patient-experience data going forward.
