High-quality real-world evidence (RWE) relies on appropriate analysis of RWD collected in ways that maximize completeness, accuracy, standardization, and timeliness, and reduce bias. Such RWE has long been used in postmarketing research and regulatory monitoring, including in long-term safety assessments, and to inform clinical decision-making.
