Our Research Focus

NordicRWE is driving its own R&D efforts in two innovative areas of RWE, supported by a soft-funding grant from the Research Council of Norway. The first R&D focus area is using observational health data to emulate RCT populations and reproduce outcomes in completed oncology trials, which will pave the way for using our data and solutions for external control arms to support clinical development programs in the field of cancer.

The second R&D area focuses on drug signal detection by applying machine learning, and advanced biostatistical methods to identify patterns in large health datasets, which can point to new therapeutic use areas (drug re-purposing) and a system for capturing side effect signals for drugs used in clinical practice.
