Rising R&D expenditures and diminishing pharmaceutical company revenues are fueling the industry, as are heightened regulatory crticism, expanding need for market access, RWE, HEOR, pricing and reimbursement, regulatory & compliance services, and R&D problems connected to complicated treatments.
Contract commercial organization (CCO) provides commercial services to pharmaceutical firms in order to improve performance, minimize risk, and accelerate the delivery of healthcare innovation to patients. Strategic consulting, market access (including RWE and HEOR), cost and reimbursement, medical affairs, regulatory and compliance, and other services (data and analytics, and marketing services — HCP engagement, patient engagement, promotional strategies) are some of the key services provided by CCOs.
Rising demand for Real-World Evidence (RWE) and Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR) fuels the Pharma CCO market
Real-world data is information about a patient’s health status and the delivery of health care that is routinely collected from various sources, including electronic health records (EHRs), medical claims and billing data, observational studies, patient-reported outcomes (PROs), and patient-generated health data gathered from various medical devices. Real-world data (RWD) and real-world evidence (RWE) are increasingly being used by regulatory agencies to monitor and evaluate the post-market safety of licensed medications. RWE supplements clinical trial data by offering insights into patient safety and efficacy data from their daily lives. It has the ability to influence approvals and speed medication development. Furthermore, payors utilize real-world data to make coverage decisions, negotiate prices, and engage in outcomes-based contracting.
HEOR data consists of observational data, price comparison data, and other forms of data that assess the economic effect of healthcare interventions, treatments, or conditions. Direct medical expenses such as drugs, hospital days, and tests are included, as are indirect costs such as unpaid help, days missed from work, and lower productivity, as well as intangible costs such as pain. It is increasingly being used to create evidence for reimbursement agencies and local healthcare payers on the usefulness of innovative therapies.
“……The utilization of RWE and HEOR is expected to expand further in the coming years as it addresses multiple issues such as product safety and risk concerns, cost justification of products, clinical trial designs, among others
