Big data to real world evidence: Informing pharmaceutical policy decisions around targeted cancer medicines

这项拟议的研究将检查澳大利亚靶向癌症疗法的使用情况。目前，几乎没有证据表明这些药物在现实世界中是如何使用的，它们的使用需要医疗服务，以及与它们的使用相关的成本。通过分析相关的、常规收集的健康数据，该项目将产生关于通过澳大利亚公共资助的ACCESS项目提供的靶向癌症疗法的使用和影响的新的科学和方法知识。

The proposed research will examine the use of targeted cancer therapies in Australia. At present there is little evidence around how these medications are being used in the real world, medical services their use requires, and costs associated with their use. Analysing linked, routinely collected health data, this project will generate new scientific and methodological knowledge about the use and impact of targeted cancer therapies available via publicly funded access programs in Australia.
