After the successful release in 2017, we are pleased to announce that the Pragmagic Tool has been updated and renamed to the GetReal Trial Tool. The renewed design focuses even more effectively on the tool’s rich functionalities.

The GetReal Trial Tool offers you step by step guidance to evaluate the options and implications of introducing Real World elements in clinical trial design.

Over 100 professional experts from pharmaceutical companies, academia, HTA agencies, patient organisations, and regulators have collaborated in a combination of extensive literature review (references are provided in the tool), in-depth stakeholder interviews, pragmatic trial study team conversations & consortium member input and the content has been validated by a team of professors, clinical trial (operational) experts and epidemiologists.

The GetReal Trial Tool offers you an accessible and solid knowledge base to assess, design or discuss your clinical trial in the light of real world evidence generation. More informed decisions in trial design will lead to better results, and better evidence. This will benefit all of society, especially patients.

The tool remains open access and can be used without entering any trial information.

After the previous successful editions of the course ‘Real-World Evidence in Medicine Development: an online introductory course’, we are pleased to announce that the next edition is scheduled from 20 April until 12 June 2020.

During this interactive online course, you will learn about current techniques, opportunities and challenges for the use of real-world evidence in medicine development. The course will be supervised by leading academics involved in the IMI GetReal project. This is an ideal course for anyone who wishes to become familiar with the key issues in the areas of real-world data and wishes to broaden his/her expertise. This is course is particularly relevant for anyone working for pharmaceutical companies, regulatory authorities, HTA bodies, patients’ organizations, consultancy companies and academic institutions. As such, the course will facilitate discussion, interaction and mutual learning across all professionals involved in medicine development.

GetReal Initiative hosted a stand at ISPOR (Europe): Copenhagen, November 2019

The stand attracted interest from various conference attenders. At the stand, we advertised the tools developed by GetReal: ADDIS, Trial Tool (formerly Pragmagic) and RWE Navigator, as well as the RWE education activities (remote learning course hosted by Elevate and the UMCU) and the ongoing work of the RWE Think Tank.

RWE was a hot topic at the conference, with a large number of CROs promoting themselves as having specific expertise in this area.

Thanks to all the people who visited our booth and please feel free to contact us at info@getreal-initiative.eu for any questions.

During ISPOR Europe 2019 Dr Sebastian Schneeweiss (Professor of Medicine and Epidemiology at Harvard Medical School and Chief of the Division of Pharmacoepidemiology and Pharmacoeconomics in the Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women’s Hospital) publicly endorsed our RWE Navigator.

He feels the RWE Navigator is ‘enormously educational and it will help people to get a jump start into Real World Evidence’. In addition, it also clarifies many issues and confusions that people have and last but not least it will ‘help people design better studies’.

Please have a look at the RWE Navigator on https://rwe-navigator.eu/.

With a continuing series of educational courses, several functioning web platforms to harness real world evidence, and now, an extension of project funding for two years, GetReal is regarded as one of the Innovative Medicine’s Initiatives true success stories. Duane Schulthess from Vital Transformation speaks with Elaine Irving of GSK, who has been Driving the GetReal bus for three years, avoiding potholes, and keeping the wheels turning as the project’s coordinator.
