Real-world evidence is the collection and use of patient health outcomes data gathered through routine clinical care. This is a high growth market segment as pharmaceutical and biotechnology customers, as well as regulating bodies, are increasingly looking to monitor and evaluate the safety of approved therapies and examine their effectiveness and value in the post approval setting.
CorEvitas, based in Waltham, Massachusetts, with operations focused in the U.S., provides regulatory-grade, real-world evidence solutions to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies with objective data and clinical insights to improve patient care and clinical outcomes. CorEvitas manages 12 registries, including nine autoimmune and inflammatory syndicated registries. Its multi-therapeutic data intelligence platform builds and scales multiple clinical registries across specific therapeutic areas to gather structured patient clinical data spanning more than 400 investigator sites and over 100,000 patients followed longitudinally.

CorEvitas has been a partner to pharma and biotech customers for more than 20 years. With approximately 300 employees, operational momentum and strong leadership, CorEvitas is well positioned to grow its revenue organically in the low double digits, with expected revenue of $110 million in 2023.
“The addition of CorEvitas will further advance our capabilities to better serve our pharma and biotech customers and strengthen our value proposition. CorEvitas is an excellent strategic fit for Thermo Fisher and highly complementary to PPD, our leading clinical research business,” said Marc N. Casper, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Thermo Fisher. “There is strong market demand for real-world evidence which improves decision making and reduces the time and cost associated with drug development. As the trusted partner, we continue to further differentiate our capabilities to help our customers accelerate innovation and drive productivity. We look forward to welcoming CorEvitas to Thermo Fisher.”
Raymond H. Hill, chairman and chief executive officer of CorEvitas, said, “This is an exciting next step for CorEvitas. Thermo Fisher shares our science-led and mission-driven culture and commitment to driving innovation and improving patient outcomes. I am confident that becoming part of a global leader with deep life science expertise, commercial reach, international presence, and proven operational excellence will provide significant opportunities for both our customers and our colleagues. I look forward to working with the entire Thermo Fisher team as we enter this next phase of growth.”
The transaction, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2023, is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Upon completion, CorEvitas will become part of Thermo Fisher’s Laboratory Products and Biopharma Services segment.
