From Non-believer to Believer: A Podcast Conversation on the Journey from Skeptic to Proponent of Oncology Real-World Evidence

In this podcast, the hosts Dr Adam Brufsky and Dr Raymond Liu share their personal experiences with real-world evidence (RWE) and how they have come to be advocates for considering RWE as a supplement to randomized controlled trial (RCT) findings to help guide decision making in the clinic. They discuss the limitations of RCTs in capturing diverse patient populations and highlight the value of RWE in providing insights into underrepresented groups, such as patients with high Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status scores or cardiovascular comorbidities. While recognizing barriers to RWE acceptance, the hosts emphasize the growing profile of real-world studies and the need for clinicians to be aware of the data they are generating. Overall, the conversation aims to provide practical examples of the potential utility of RWE for enhancing care and outcomes for patients with cancer.
