Real-World Studies and Randomized Controlled Trials: A Podcast Discussion of the Relative Strengths and Limitations of These Complementary Designs for Cancer Research

This podcast aims to be a resource for clinicians by exploring the strengths and limitations of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and real-world studies in the context of cancer research. The hosts Dr Adam Brufsky and Dr Christos Vaklavas, both of whom are practicing oncologists, provide context for the emergence of modern real-world studies and advice for interpreting real-world evidence. As a supplement to learnings from RCTs, real-world evidence can inform the treatment decision-making process in the clinic and support decisions made by regulatory bodies. This podcast is part 1 of a three-part series discussing real-world studies.
