![]() ![]() This registry was created in 2014 and has over 7, 000 participants, all either patients or caregivers affected by MS. McBurney followed his presentation with a registry case example, the iConquer MS patient – powered research network. This step is vital to achieving diversity and representativeness in a registry population. To facilitate patient engagement with registries, one must establish trust with communities and involve patients in the development of the registr y and corresponding studies. Registries can collect information on individuals with a particular disease, follow disease progression, document patient experience and preference, and even can be used as surveillance tools to monitor quality of care and safety.

The National Health Council and the Duke-Margolis Center for Health Policy continued the introductory series on real- world data (RWD) and real-world evidence (RWE) with a webinar introducing patient registries, which are made up of RWD and often inform RWE studies.

Our hope is that people with MS will be eager to join this cutting-edge network because it is only through more involvement of the entire MS community that we can better accelerate efforts toward improving treatments and finding a cure
