This infographic explores the advantage of external control arms using real-world data.

As clinical research gets more costly, time-intensive and advanced, stakeholders are looking for ways to innovate more efficiently, effectively and ethically. External control arms using real-world data (RWD) offer a strong advantage. But there are important considerations when building study controls from the real world. These include FDA guidance and types of control arms such as historical controls, concurrent controls, and even ‘digital twins’ that can simulate control records with predictive modeling.

What else should your team be considering if they are looking into using RWD in an external control arm?

Get the infographic to learn about the best approach to RWD-based external controls. You’ll learn:

• How using external control arms can benefit clinical trials.
• The role of RWD for a more diverse and representative control arm.
• What the FDA looks for when sponsors use RWD in external control arms.
• How to find the right RWD for an external control arm.
