In a first-of-its kind study , Verana Health demonstrated that it was able to successfully use real world data (RWD) to replicate primary outcome measures of two large-scale randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in ophthalmology\xe2\x80\x94the VIEW 1 and VIEW 2 (VIEW 1/2) pivotal trials.

Key Points: 
  • In a first-of-its kind study , Verana Health demonstrated that it was able to successfully use real world data (RWD) to replicate primary outcome measures of two large-scale randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in ophthalmology\xe2\x80\x94the VIEW 1 and VIEW 2 (VIEW 1/2) pivotal trials.
  • The groundbreaking replication of the VIEW 1/2 clinical trials outcomes data shows the potential value real-world data can bring in helping to accelerate clinical trials," said David W. Parke II, MD, CEO of the American Academy of Ophthalmology.
  • "The research demonstrating the viability of linking imaging metadata to IRIS Registry encounters is also encouraging.
  • Currently, the IRIS Registry does not contain images, yet they are a critical component of the daily practice of ophthalmology.
