Leveraging Real-World Data for Real-World Impact

Integrate quantitative and structured pathology data with clinico-genomic real-world data sets to:
  • Discover novel histopathology biomarkers
  • Enhance clinical development and trial design
  • Assess real-world prevalence and treatment effectiveness

What is real-world data and how is it leveraged for drug development? 

RWD (1)-1

Real-world data (RWD) is a valuable resource that enhances our understanding of healthcare outcomes and supports the development of more effective and personalized treatments. RWD refers to health-related information collected from various sources outside the context of traditional clinical trials. It includes data derived from routine patient care and health interactions, providing insights into patient journeys, treatment patterns, and outcomes in real-world populations

Real-world data is collected through a variety of sources, but generally contains information that captures the complete patient journey from disease diagnosis, biomarker testing, treatment selection, and outcomes. Examples of RWD sources include:
  • Electronic Health Records (EHRs)
  • Claims and Billing Data
  • Patient Registries
  • Wearable Devices and Health Apps
  • Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs)
  • Molecular Biomarker Tests

Patient Diversity
Captures data from diverse and different patient populations, including those not typically included in clinical trials

Speed & Cost-Effectiveness
:
Using readily available data helps reduce the time and cost associated with clinical trial operations and data collection

Real-World Insights
:
Provides a continuous, longitudinal view into patient journeys, treatment patterns, adverse events, and outcomes

Clinical Trial Operations:
Enhancing clinical trial protocol development, study feasibility, and population-level eligibility assessment

Regulatory Decision-Making:
Supporting new drug approvals or post-approval requirements through continuous data collection and surveillance

Health Economics and Outcomes Research:
Generate evidence and inform market access decisions by analyzing real-world clinical and cost-effectiveness

RWD has driven significant progress in drug development, but pathology data remains underutilized due to a lack of standardization, structure, and scale

Pathology is the critical data element bridging the molecular drivers of disease to their clinical manifestations

Pathology is the only data modality to:

  • Define the patho-physiology of disease
  • Capture complex disease manifestations underpinned by molecular alterations
  • Quantify morphological changes resulting from treatment or disease progression
Molecular

PathAI transforms unstructured pathology images into structured pathology insights to enable seamless integration with clinico-genomics RWD

  • Advances in digital pathology and machine learning are now enabling researchers to use routine histopathology samples to obtain a single-cell, spatially-resolved view of tissue structures and cell populations. 
  • PathAI’s products transform unstructured digital images into human interpretable features (HIFs) allowing for more detailed and actionable insights from histopathology data.
  • Integrate quantitative pathology data with other RWD to understand disease intricacies at molecular, cellular, histological, and anatomical levels
