Hainan Boao Lecheng International Medical Tourism Pilot Zone, as the unique "Medical Special Zone" in China, is the only pilot region that makes active use of real data application.

More than 270 kinds of medical products that are in urgent clinical need have been introduced from overseas. A total of nine kinds of products have been approved for listing in China through the use of real-world data from Lecheng to supplement clinical evaluation. "I sincerely hope that experts, scholars, guests and friends attending the meeting will have in-depth discussions and exchanges to promote Lecheng Pilot Zone to become a new highland for real world study and a new engine for the development of China's pharmaceutical industry," Feng Fei said.

According to Gauden Galea, WHO representative in China, with the rapid development of information technology and data science, real world data, study and evidence have had a wide-ranging and far-reaching impact on regulatory decisions.
