Jun 2026: Panel at the Digital Biomarkers in Clinical Trials Summit

23 June 2026, ​9th Annual Digital Biomarkers in Clinical Trials Summit (WEB), Lausanne, Switzerland. Prof. Wac is a co-organizer and a moderator of the Panel titled “No Claim, No Value? Unlocking the Power of QoL in Drug Development”.

Quality of Life (QoL) data capture what patients actually live through during and after treatment—symptoms, functioning, dignity, and daily impact—yet these experiences rarely translate into clear, patient-facing claims. This session will focus on how to rigorously measure, validate, and interpret patient-reported and real-world QoL data so that lived experience becomes credible, decision-grade evidence. We will examine what is required—methodologically, statistically, and regulatorily—to move from capturing patient voice to securing meaningful claims that inform patients, clinicians, and payers.

Moderator: Prof Katarzyna Wac, Quality of Life Technologies Lab & mQoL Living Lab Director, University of Geneva, Switzerland
