Here is our solution.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the current limitations of RWD regarding MS?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Observational research in multiple sclerosis (MS) in Europe is generally based on two types of data: claims data or clinical\/EMR data. However, there are limitations to both types:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Claims data often lack clinical detail. \u201cWhile claims data offer a comprehensive picture of patients\u2019 healthcare resource use and costs, as well as comorbidities, they lack information on disease severity and duration, laboratory results, and important prognostic measures.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Clinical\/EMR data are often incomplete and lack follow-up. \u201cData sources such as registries and EMRs, which are richer in terms of documenting patients\u2019 clinical characteristics and disease severity, lack information on the economic burden of the disease and\/or the broader comorbidity profile of the patient.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ideally, observational databases provide information that combines the strengths of both claims and clinical data; these types of data are usually called linked datasets. So far, these linked datasets are largely unavailable for MS patients in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How have we overcome these limitations?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Cytel has developed an analytical and legal framework to generate linked data in Germany. This unique linked MS dataset is now available: the GER MSDS-AOK PLUS dataset. It offers unique access to both detailed clinical data such as laboratory\/diagnostic data and\/or EDSS status and broad claims data covering all GP\/specialist and hospital visits of each patient and related HCRU\/cost information.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe MSDS-AOK PLUS linked database presents a unique opportunity in MS, expanding the current landscape and potentials of RWE. By combining the strengths of administrative claims databases and detailed clinical information provided in MS patient charts, MSDS-AOK PLUS offers a more complete picture of the patients\u2019 history and clinical state. The database is actively growing, with the overall purpose of expanding the capabilities of MS research in the real-world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Details are available in our recently published article, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2077-0383\/12\/4\/1441\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Data Resource Profile: The Multiple Sclerosis Documentation System 3D and AOK PLUS Linked Database (MSDS-AOK PLUS)<\/a>,\u201d in the Journal of Clinical Medicine.<\/p>\n<p>This new dataset offers a unique opportunity for observational MS research in Europe; other disease areas will follow.
