SUMMARY:RealiseD Webinar 2: Evidence Assessment Framework. A need to change mindset from developers\, regulators and HTA
DESCRIPTION:The second webinar turns the spotlight on one of the most critical issues in rare disease research: the generation and assessment of evidence. François Meyer\, a leading consultant in health technology assessment\, will examine why current frameworks often fail to deliver predictable and aligned outcomes\, resulting in delays and inequalities in patient access. The session will explore the global and European initiatives aimed at addressing these shortcomings and present the RealiseD consortium’s efforts to advance scientific and operational solutions. More importantly\, it will advocate for a fundamental shift in mindset—one that embraces flexibility and innovation in the way evidence is generated\, interpreted\, and assessed.

SUMMARY:RealiseD Webinar 3: Single arm\, RCT or something in between – how to enrich clinical trial design and analysis in rare diseases
DESCRIPTION:Single-arm trials remain a cornerstone of rare disease research\, but their limitations and complexities cannot be ignored. In the third webinar\, experts Yulia Dyachkova (Merck Healthcare)\, Jenny Devenport (Roche)\, Cornelia Dunger-Baldauf (Novartis) abd Guillaume Canaud will lead a deep dive into the evolving role of SATs in drug development. The discussion will cover regulatory and HTA perspectives\, review case studies of success and failure\, and explore advanced statistical methods designed to optimise trial design.
