I think it's really important to listen to the patients to understand what "clinical benefit" means to them. I'm really proud that Parexel is doing this. It's involving patients more and more in all of the interactions with the clients, with the studies, with strategies to help run studies more efficiently so that the patients want to enroll and stay

in studies throughout to the end.

Patients worldwide have seen us develop new therapeutic vaccines in record time and are asking the question, why can't we do that every time?

We should continue to evolve into faster pathways to development.

We at Parexel were involved in one of the first approvals that used real world evidence to support some of the decision making. And I think as we continue to think about innovative trial designs with our statisticians, innovative endpoints and biomarkers with our translational sciences, and innovative patient selection criteria, that we can move drug development to a faster pace.

There's no going back to the old ways of working these drug development programs and that I'm very excited by.

I expect we're going to be able to run our programs more quickly, more efficiently, and bring more assets to the market at prices that patients can afford and be reimbursed for. And that's very exciting.

Real-world evidence

Explore the impact of a therapy or disease in a real-world setting, generating data that can support your value proposition without additional burden to the patient. Our real-world evidence (RWE) strategies help reassure payers, regulators, providers, and patients that your clinical results are reflective of what will be evidenced in real-world practice, helping demonstrate value before, during, and after launch.

21%more likely drug launch with RWD

Our research with the Economist Intelligence revealed how real-world data (RWD) strategies like ours significantly improve the likelihood of a drug launching.

Market access strategy and delivery

The potential for new treatments to benefit patients becomes a reality in the later stages of clinical development. But success relies on satisfying the needs of key stakeholders. Neglecting the data required by regulatory agencies, payers, prescribers and health technology assessment (HTA) agencies can cause significant, and costly delays between approval and reimbursement.
