Evidence Generation

Evidence Generation

Evidence Planning (IEP) is a strategic roadmap to identify and fill evidence gaps across clinical, economic, and humanistic areas throughout a product’s lifecycle. It involves defining key research questions, planning essential studies, and aligning evidence generation with regulatory and commercial goals.

Systematic Review

A Systematic Review is a structured method that identifies, evaluates, and synthesizes all relevant studies on a specific question. It provides an unbiased summary of evidence by following predefined steps, including defining the question, searching literature, appraising studies, and summarizing findings.

Scoping Review

A Scoping Review is an exploratory assessment that maps the existing research on a broad topic to identify key concepts, evidence types, and research gaps. Unlike systematic reviews, it does not critically appraise study quality, and its results are presented as a narrative summary or a literature map rather than statistical estimates.
