Background:

  • At Polygon Health Analytics, we draw inspiration from our founder, Dr. Lixia Yao and remain dedicated to cultivating a supportive learning environment that nurtures the growth and development of young talents in the workplace. We firmly believe in the untapped potential within each individual, and our team is here to guide you towards achieving your professional aspirations.
  • While clinical trials play a vital role in the development and evaluation of new pharmaceuticals and vaccines, they often fail to capture the complete range of real-world outcomes and impacts of these interventions. Once a new intervention receives regulatory approval, it is prescribed to a diverse patient population with varying ages, medical histories, and concurrent medications, extending beyond the scope of the clinical trial participants. As a result, the true clinical and cost effectiveness of the intervention in real-world settings requires additional investigation. Additionally, manufacturers are obligated to monitor the post-marketing safety of their products. Real-world data (RWD), real-world evidence (RWE), and health economics and outcomes research (HEOR) play a critical role in the lifecycle of pharmaceuticals and vaccines, by bridging the gap between controlled clinical trials and real-world practice.
