Healthcare stakeholders gathered in Boston for ISPOR 2023 – the annual meeting to advance the science and practice of health economics and outcomes research (HEOR) around the world. Read insights and takeaways from the COTA team.
COTA’s expanded services will provide even more support to organizations conducting research, like Bristol Myers Squibb, the US Food and Drug Administration, and Miami Cancer Institute. From protocol advisory and development to analytic and algorithmic support and publications, COTA’s expert guidance is a valuable asset for those looking to make advances in oncology research.
In this post we look at the future of RWD in action and explore the world of external control arms (ECAs). Experts outline 5 steps to building and submitting an ECA to regulators.
With over 20 years of pharmaceutical and real-world data experience, Sandy Leonard joins COTA as Chief Commercial Officer. Sandy will lead COTA’s business expansion efforts, focusing on life sciences’ growth strategy and prioritizing customer success and experience.
Real-world data can uncover vital efficacy info for new treatments. In the development of an external control arm for lisocabtagene maraleucel in patients with R/R large B-cell lymphoma, Bristol Myers Squibb used COTA’s RWD.
Are you up to date with the latest FDA guidance on accelerated approvals for oncology therapeutics? The FDA has just released draft guidance on the use of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) versus single-arm trials for the accelerated approval of oncology therapies. We’ve broken down what you need to know.
Miami Cancer Institute has recently utilized COTA’s analysis of RWE to change its testing policy for breast cancer gene mutations. With the new technology, the institute has decided to test every patient diagnosed with the condition. Not only will this help with early detection, but it will also allow for more personalized treatment plans.
Real-world data assets are becoming increasingly vital in cancer research. And at NCCN 2023, COTA’s data sets are recognized in 2 studies, one focusing on HR+, HER2- metastatic breast cancer, and the other analyzing early-stage non-small cell lung cancer.
The two companies are joining forces to integrate COTA’s deep clinical oncology real-world data with GTC’s comprehensive genomics testing data.
COTA, Inc. is now a proud member of the Clinical Research Data Sharing Alliance (CRDSA). This cross-industry alliance is dedicated to accelerating the discovery and delivery of life-saving therapies through the use of high-quality clinical trials and real-world data.
A fit-for-purpose database includes key variables, reliable and accurate data, and representative samples that can be used to draw meaningful conclusions. RWD can be highly valuable in supporting clinical oncology research, but choosing the right data is essential. The keys to finding the right fit-for-purpose database include relevance, reliability, integrity, and bias.
Research from MedStar Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center and COTA shows the potential of a more patient-friendly dosing regimen for Stage 4 CRC/PC or locally advanced PC.
This collaboration highlights how real-world data can contribute to clinical research and can help answer pressing questions about care already taking place in clinical practice.
The American Society of Hematology’s 2021 annual meeting showed that real-world data is no longer the new kid on the block – it’s an indispensable part of the toolkit for therapeutic development and clinical research. COTA is proud to be a part of the discussion, contributing research this year for chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
Partnering with Impatient Health, we take a comprehensive look at the realities of real-world data and the challenges that pharma companies face in leveraging it to gain actionable insight, based on feedback from executives at well-known, major pharma companies.
This is a key part of our mission to provide the most comprehensive cancer care possible by leveraging the latest advances in data science and technology.
COTA is honored to have contributed to three abstracts accepted for poster presentation at the American Society of Hematology’s 64th Annual Meeting, which cover a range of hematologic cancers. These studies focus on patient- and clinician-reported performance status in Multiple Myeloma, and real-world treatment patterns among patients with newly diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia in the US.
We are excited to announce our partnership with Google Cloud to use their Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology to help us better understand the unstructured data in cancer patients’ medical records.
This is a key part of our mission to provide the most comprehensive cancer care possible by leveraging the latest advances in data science and technology.
New financing will help COTA expand RWD platform & services to drive more efficient and inclusive drug development.
When it comes to cancer, there are a lot of myths and misconceptions out there. But the one thing is for certain: cancer can affect anyone, at any time, and from any background. Hear from one of our own about their battle with breast cancer and how early detection helped them defeat cancer.
C.K. Wang discusses payment for research participation in this exploratory workshop hosted by the Office for Human Research Protections in the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
Deloitte’s new Real-World Evidence Survey reveals that life sciences companies are now using real-world data (RWD) and real-world evidence (RWE) throughout the product life cycle—from early discovery through commercialization.
In this new blog series from COTA and Deloitte, we will explore the expanding role of real-world data in oncology.
