Scientists test if hospital records can replace clinical trials
NCT ID NCT06675695
Summary
This study aimed to see if analyzing real-world electronic health records from cancer clinics could produce results similar to a major, controlled clinical trial. Researchers looked at data from over 4,800 patients with a specific type of advanced lung cancer to compare the effectiveness of two different drug strategies. The goal was to understand when and how real-world data can be trusted to answer important medical questions without running a new trial.
