Episode 60: Real-World Evidence vs Clinical Trials

To debate the utility and appropriateness of real-world evidence against clinical trials for treating patients with hematologic malignancies, Chadi welcomes back Aaron Goodman, MD, hematologist, University of California San Diego, and Alan Skarbnik, MD, director of the lymphoma and CLL program, Novant Health (Charlotte, NC), as well as invites first-time guest Liz Brem, MD, assistant clinical professor of hematology, UC Irvine. Can RCT designers ever escape inherent bias? Will we ever enroll a more diverse, higher volume patient population in clinical trials? Who has the right to criticize a clinical trial design? The group uses a phase I study published in Lancet Hematology to frame their arguments in this riveting, hotly contested discussion.
