Virtual Trials: Causally-validated treatment effects efficiently learned from an observational cancer registry

2021-06-18

Abstract excerpt

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) offer a clear causal interpretation of treatment effects, but are inefficient in terms of information gain per patient. Moreover, because they are intended to test cohort-level effects, RCTs rarely provide information to support precision medicine, which strives to choose the best treatment for an individual patient.
