HCV-TARGET History
Formed in 2015, Target RWE was created as an outcome of the success of HCV-TARGET, a case study of the Target RWE Model for hepatitis C. HCV-TARGET was a partnership between academia, the FDA and industry established in 2011 by Michael W. Fried, MD, FAASLD and David R. Nelson, MD. To date, the study has enrolled over 16,000+ patients across 60 sites in North America and Europe.
The evidence from HCV-TARGET has been utilized by regulators to monitor post-marketing drug safety, and by sponsors to support label expansion and mitigate phase IV commitments. In late 2018, Dr. Fried and members of the HCV-TARGET team were awarded the Civilian Honor Award for Regulatory Science Excellence by the FDA “for outstanding public-private partnership leveraging real-world evidence.”
The HCV-TARGET case study has helped inform national and international treatment guidelines and was used in payer dossiers. As a result, numerous high impact scientific presentations and manuscripts were published. To date, the study generated a total of 9 publications and 30+ abstract presentations. The proven success of the HCV-TARGET model and platform was the basis of Target RWE's foundation in 2015 and its expansion into various disease indications.
