Although much can be learned from interventional-type clinical trials, a fuller picture of disease course and experiential journey can only be understood by observing patients longitudinally in real-world settings where co-morbid conditions, medication noncompliance, economic considerations, and a host of other factors come into play. However, capturing real-world data in rare diseases poses distinctive demands: fewer patients, patient inability to report on disease experience due to youth or infirmity, and need for longitudinal tracking. This panel seeks to present conventional and novel approaches to capturing real-world data in rare diseases.

Learning Objectives

Discuss the benefit of real-world data; Summarize the distinctive demands for real-world data and data collection in rare diseases; Describe ways to address real-world data demands in rare diseases.
