Fast-Tracking the Future

In this exclusive PC Podcast interview, Claire Riches, vice president of clinical solutions at Citeline, dives into:

• Specific inefficiencies in the current drug approval system that are the biggest obstacles to faster approvals
• How the FDA can integrate data sources such as real-world data (RWD) to streamline approvals, while maintaining rigorous safety standards
• Advancements in data collection and validation that make RWD a viable tool for drug approvals
• The role payers and insurers should play in this shift toward a more data-driven, flexible approval framework, and how this could impact patient access to innovative treatments
• The likelihood of bipartisan support for reforms that modernize drug approvals with shifting political priorities under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
