Abstract:
In recent years, researchers, pharmaceutical companies, and political makers gradually using more real-world data (RWD) to produce real-world evidence (RWE) for policy-making. A research team of Harvard University launched the RCT DUPLICATE project in 2018, aiming to replicate 30 randomized controlled trials using the medical claims database in order to explore methods for quantifying the efficacy-effectiveness gap and explain its potential sources, to enhance the credibility of the RWE. This paper reviews the background of RCT DUPLICATE Initiative, highlights the research purposes, research design and implementation process of the RCT DUPLICATE Initiative, to help domestic scholars better understand the scope and application value of RWE.
