Defining core digital measures for
Pediatric rare disease research & care

Implementing core measures of pediatric rare diseases

Generating robust evidence for pediatric rare disease therapies faces significant barriers, such as small patient populations, data challenges, or inconsistent payor standards. As a result, therapies that appear promising in small studies tend to face prolonged evidence requirements and limited reimbursement options, forcing children to wait for treatment.

Use this guide to implement core digital measures to help reduce trial timelines, strengthen your regulatory submissions, and navigate evidence requirements.

IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE OVERVIEW

This four-part guide walks you through key areas of implementation for digital measures in clinical research and care for pediatric rare diseases. Start with the section that is most relevant to your needs.

Articulate the value of core measures for pediatric rare diseases from the perspectives of critical stakeholders.

Explore Value Framework

Plan and execute digitally-enabled clinical trials with a timeline and checklist that pinpoint clear milestones, decision gates, and practical guidance.

Build trial execution plan

Select the most appropriate regulatory pathways and interactions to accelerate time to market.

Determine Regulatory Pathways

Integrate digital measures into care workflows to enhance monitoring, engagement, and clinical decision-making.

Integrate into Care Workflows

Additional resources for strategic positioning of core measures as endpoints in disease-specific trials
