This document summarizes current recommendations and gaps regarding extrapolation of time-to-event outcomes from clinical trials. It reviewed 11 methodological papers and 5 guidelines on extrapolating survival data. The guidelines, particularly from NICE, provide a detailed process for extrapolation including testing different survival models, validating the best fitting model, and using external data for validation. However, the guidelines need updating to apply to more disease areas beyond oncology and different time-to-event outcomes.

Strategy to incorporate pharmacoeconomics into pharmacotherapy Ravi Kumar Yadav
Pharmacoeconomics of the health care intervention is equally important like the safety and efficacy of drug. The various strategies are available to incorporate pharmacoeconomics into pharmacotherapy. The most popular strategies for applying pharmacoeconomics to assess the value of pharmaceutical products and services include using the results of published pharmacoeconomic studies, building economic models, and conducting pharmacoeconomic research.

Operations research within UK healthcare: A reviewHarender Singh
The paper "Operations research within UK healthcare: a review" provides an overview of the application of operations research (OR) in the UK healthcare sector. The review highlights the contribution of OR in improving efficiency, reducing costs, and enhancing patient outcomes in various areas of healthcare, such as hospital management, patient flow, resource allocation, and scheduling. The paper also discusses the challenges and opportunities in applying OR in healthcare, such as data availability, ethical considerations, and stakeholder engagement. Overall, the review provides insights into the potential of OR to drive innovation and improve healthcare delivery in the UK.

OHE’s Professor Nancy Devlin has researched, written and spoken widely on the use of the EQ-5D, and related measures, both in her capacity as the Director of Research at the OHE and as Chair of the Executive Committee of the EuroQol Group.
In May, Nancy was invited to participate in the “Workshop on measuring patient-reported outcomes using the EQ-5D”, which was organised by the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare in collaboration with the EuroQol Group. The workshop brought together policy makers and researchers in Sweden interested in measuring patients’ health outcomes.
Sweden has included the EQ-5D in some of its quality registries and in population health surveys for many years. The Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare now is exploring whether and how to extend use of patient reported outcomes measures in the health care system, including the EQ-5D, to both monitor the quality of providers and services and to facilitate health technology appraisal.
Nancy’s talk, shown below, introduced the EQ-5D instrument; discussed how data from it can be analysed; identified some of the challenges in analysis; and commented on the future of outcomes measurement.
Computer validation of e-source and EHR in clinical trials-KuchinkeWolfgang Kuchinke
Clinical Trials in the Learning Health System (LHS): Computer System Validation of eSource and EHR Data.
The question that was addressed: How to make a clinical trial data management system that uses EHR data, Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) and eSource data as part of the Learning Health System compliant with regulations and with Good Clinical Practice (GCP)?
The Learning Health System (LHS) connects health care with translational and clinical research. It generates new medical knowledge as a by-product of the care process and its aim is to improve health and safety of patients. The LHS generates and applies knowledge. For this purpose, clinical research, which is research involving humans, must be part of the LHS. Two general types of research exists: observational studies and clinical trials.
Clinical data drive the LHS, because results from randomized controlled trials are seen as “gold standard” for medical evidence. For this reason the concept of using data gathered directly from the patient care environment has enormous potential for accelerating the rate at which useful knowledge is generated.
All computer systems involved in clinical trials must undergo Computer System Validation (CSV). For this process, a legal framework for the TRANSFoRm project was developed. It was used for data privacy analysis of the data flow in two research use cases: an epidemiological cohort study on Diabetes and a randomised clinical trial about different GORD treatment regimes.
Computerized system validation is the documented process to produce evidence that a computerized system does exactly what it is designed to do in a consistent and reproducible manner. The validation of electronic source data in clinical trials presents many challenges because of the blurring of the border between care and research. Here we present our approach for the validation of eSource data capture and the developed documentation for the CSV of the complete data flow in the LHS developed by the TRANSFoRm project. An important part hereby played the GORD Valuation Study.

Clinical Trials in the Learning Health System: Computer System Validation of eSource and EHR Data. Basic question is how to make a clinical trial data management system that uses EHR data, Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) and eSource data as part of the Learning Health System compliant with regulations and with Good Clinical Practice (GCP)? Computer System Validation (CSV) is a requirement for all computer systems involved in clinical trials for drug submission. It consists of documented processes to produce evidence that a computerized system does exactly what it is designed to do in a consistent and reproducible manner. Validation begins with the system requirements definition and continues until system retirement. For example, the components of a clinical trials
framework used in our case are: Patient eligibility checks and enrolment, pre-population of eCRFs with data from EHRs, PROM data collection by patients, storing of a copy of study data in the EHR, and validation of the Study System that coordinates all study and data collection events.
eSource direct data entry in clinical trials and GCP requirements. It is the duty of physicians who are involved in medical research to protect the privacy and confidentiality of personal information of research subjects. Any eSource system should be fully compliant with the provisions of applicable data protection legislation. This creates the need to develop and implement processes that ensure the continuous control of the investigators over these data. This has to be the focus of CSV. Clinical Data drive the LHS. The results from randomized controlled trials are seen as the “gold standard” for medical evidence, but such trials are often performed outside the usual system of care and recruit highly selected populations. For this reason, the concept of using data gathered directly from the patient care environment has enormous potential for accelerating the rate at which useful knowledge is generated.
This leads to the requirement for validating electronic source data in clinical trials. This includes validation for clinical data that is either captured from the subject directly or from the subject’s medical records. The problem is the correct and appropriate system validation of electronic source data. The main componenets of CSV are the Validation Master Plan), User Requirements Specification, Hardware Requirements Specification, Design qualification, Installation qualification, Operational qualification, Performance qualification.
Any instrument used to capture source data should ensure that the data are captured as specified within the protocol. Source data should be accurate, legible, contemporaneous, original, attributable, complete and consistent. An audit trail should be maintained as part of the source documents for the original creation and subsequent modification of all source data.
