Oriola´s Farenta Expert Services will present the results of three real world data studies in the ISPOR 2018 Conference. The studies have been performed with a unique real world data research concept and deal with patient therapy schemes, outcomes and adherence.

Real world data studies are performed through Oriola´s network of research pharmacies. Data is collected directly from patients and can be used, for example, to support pricing and reimbursement applications, development of pharmacotherapy support services, marketing of medicinal products or product development.
