Patient Registries
Patient registries are databases containing information about individuals who are affected by specific conditions and play an important role in the therapy development pathway.
Registries can:
-
Identify participants for clinical trials
-
Help develop care standards, to improve the care people receive
-
Support specific research questions
-
Provide health, genetic and other types of useful information to assist doctors and scientists
-
Represent a link between patients and the research community, providing the opportunity for people to receive information directly relevant to their condition (for example, through newsletters)
The data in registries can be entered by patients themselves, their doctor or by a combination of the two and in many cases, researchers can make data access requests.
